We stayed here for 2 nights in February and thought the motel was excellent. The staff were really polite and helpful, our room was lovely and big with a small kitchen for us to prepare our own food. The motel is about a 2 min drive from the main shops and restaurants which made it really peaceful and quiet with... More

The view was fantastic and to die for! When we were there, in November, it was spring so one day when i was enjoying a peaceful... More

We stayed here for one night. The room was spacious and furnished reasonably well. Location was great as it was just outside the Fox Glacier township, on the road leading to Lake Matheson. The owners were friendly and helpful and we had no complaints.

If you compare the other hotel in the same price range they are better. We wanted 3 days stay and he quoted a lower price. But when we confirmed for 3 days he comes back and says he has availability only for two days so we booked two days here and 1 days in top 10 motel. But when we... More

We stayed for 2 nights. The motel is nice & tidy. There is no luxury but all the basic needs are available. It is bit of the centre of Fox but so near to Lake Matheson where you can have a nice breakfast and a walk in the lake. Also I would like to thank the kind guy in the... More

Our group stayed at this very clean and quiet motel. We enjoyed a beautiful sunset and beautiful views of Mt. Cook. I would recommend this hotel and would stay here again. It's close to the park where we hiked around Lake Matheson and we all got beautiful shots of sunrise and the reflections of Mt. Cook in the lake.

This motel purports to be superior. It is very average compared with our experiences elsewhere in South Island. The size and cleanliness were fine .The negatives were a lumpy uneven matttress with poor quality 'bobbly' poly cotton bedlinen. The pillows smelt. The location is a 15 minute walk from the 'centre' but is nearer to Lake Mattheson where there us... More
