Very quaint property with unique rooms and nostalgic vibe. It felt like we were in a period mystery show! Breakfast was hearty and good, and the staff are wonderful. I forgot my credit card and they quickly texted me to come back and pick it up. Overall a wonderful stay that we would gladly repeat if we came back to Te Anau.

Character, character, character. This converted convent was terrific. Large library with balcony down the hall. Great grounds with an old railroad car that could be rented as a room. Terrific hostess, Kim. Very good value. Close enough to town center to walk to dinner.

The history of the Lodge as a convent is very apparent and celebrated. The host Kym is so helpful and was able to book our excursions and dining with ease. The walls are very thin and not sound proof so mind what you do: the neighboring room can hear!
