A safe and convenient place to stay near Lake Tekapo. Our host was awesome and shared knowledge about places to eat and see. Our room(2) was comfortable and well stocked. The beds were comfortable/sheets were clean. The only recommendation I would make would be to clean the mold on the ceiling in the bathroom above the shower. For an older motel this is a quant place to stay!

Very enjoyable stay, we liked being in town near the lake Enjoyed going to find coffee and crepes around the corner We found the convience kitchen very helpful to us as we prep our own food for day long treks

Near amenities

Stay away from this dump. Smells like urine and the staff couldn’t care less about you.

Fantastic stay

This property is close to everything, very pleasant and affordable

Good Location

Very clean and tidy. Nice kitchen. Very close to shops restaurants, water.

It’s a very good location and walkable to many restaurants and pubs and cafe Very quiet at night Got table and chair outside to relax in the sun. Very clean motel Very friendly staff

Our Superior King room was very small. It had all the amenities including a kitchen sink but space was very tight.

Great position right by Lake Wakana. Walking and ships close by. Lovely spot.

Closeness to town, walking and recreation areas

Very clean and convenient.. After hours arrival was no issue. Right in the heart of Wanaka. Would definitely return!

Great stay

Excellent facilities for a family of 5

Good location! parked up and walked everywhere. less than 5mins down to the lake front. Room clean. great view upstairs. Parking can be limited. Laundry available.

Easy stroll to the shops and eateries

Location is the key. It’s a no frills motel. Just simple amenities at value prices. Clean room good location. Check in and out self service. For independent travellers. Love it and will stay again

Great location, located right in the hub of town and less than 5 minutes walk from Lake Wanaka. Stayed in the winter and the heated blankets were awesome, alongside multiple room/portable heaters. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate were generously provided in the room, there was ample utensils and kitchenware to cook up a decent meal. WIFI was strong, toilet was big, beds were comfortable. Booked this property super last minute (the morning of arrival) but had a very pleasant stay.

I've honestly never had such terrible/disappointing customer service. I was so excited to go to Wanaka, we decided to book when we arrived in Tekapo, but the next day the roads were closed so we had to drive home. I assumed the motel would refund the amount since it wasn't under our control and had been a last-minute booking anyway. Instead, they said I could rebook for another day - problematic since we live nowhere near Wanaka and I'm disabled (it takes a lot of planning to stay somewhere new). I asked again for a refund as this aligns with the Fair Trading Act, and they refused, saying I could only rebook in July. So I tried that and found they wanted to charge me double the original amount because it was a 'busy month' for them. I will be taking them to the tribunal because $200 may seem like nothing to them, but it's a lot of money to lose for me.

Nice place to stay , very responsible pricing , right in the center of town , I would stay again.

exactly where I wanted to be to take photos early morning as well as close to the shops etc.

Great place. Close to the waterfront and the nightlife. I love it there.

Great

Really couldn’t fault our stay - the staff were helpful and obliging and the room was clean and pleasant for our one night stay.

Great location

Location is the only real positive and value for money is ok. Room small despite being "one of our larger". Very noisy, clearly hear neighbours and outside. TV a waste of time (no sky).

Close to lake and restaurants.

Not what i was expecting Room was under stairs passage Bit dated for price
