A little dated facilities. Breakfast very ordinary standard, acceptable, but overblown in other reviews. No atmosphere in the breakfast room. No evening meal opportunity in the hotel, despite description saying there were.

Enjoyed the hotel and our stay, but room had unpleasant odor ( may have been from previous guest vaping). It was also loud with motorcycle driving guests parking under the rooms. Location was excellent and very walkable to all activities in town.

I had been in a car accident, totalled the car, and Ash, the manager was fantastic. She organized ways for me to get from one place to another, made a plane reservation for me, even loaded my stuff in her car to get me to my next lodging. Over the top service.

This property was well located but I don't think it is worth how much we paid! The rooms are in need of an upgrade and the property is a bit run down. The staff, particularly Ella, was friendly and accommodating. It would be fine if we were paying $100-150 a night but this place was definitely not worth $250!!

Great stay. Quiet. Great team. The only negative was no AC and we had to keep the windows open all night subjecting ourselves to the gnats.

Nice room, shame about the food.

Nice room but hotel feels like it’s being run on a shoestring. Although advertising a restaurant when we arrived and tried to book we were told it was not available to us as they had a coach party staying who were using the restaurant. Not much left for breakfast after the coach party had been in so if you’re planning on staying here, eat elsewhere!

Loved this place.

Traving New Zealand for a month I’ve stayed in posh and cheap places, this was by far my favorite, the rooms were very clean and cozy. The stalff was excellent, nice and helpful and the breakfast was great, can’t recommend this place enough.

Lovely place to stay in Fox Glacier

This hotel is in a great location, within walking distance to good cafes and bars. The room was lovely, although on level 1 there was no view - in fact we overlooked another building and the car park which was disappointing. If we stayed here again we would definitely request a room on Level 2. The breakfast (included) was excellent and the lady serving it delightful and friendly. Definitely the best place to stay in Fox Glacier.
