You couldn’t ask for a better view. I thought Te Anau would just be a necessary and brief stop on our way out to Milford Sound, but I ended up wishing we could stay another night. The room was comfortable and convenient, and the guest laundry was an added bonus. I would happily come back here.

The room was beautiful, spotless, and very comfortable overall. The only small challenge for me was the shower, which was quite compact — I managed fine, just a little squishy as a bigger girl. That said, it certainly didn’t take away from the experience. The property itself was absolutely stunning, and I would happily stay there again.

The laundry service was good, very clean and efficient washing machines and driers.
The bed mattress, in our room was very uncomfortable, a suggestion would be to consider replacing it. The end unit was under an external stairwell leading to units above, when the stairs were in use it was noisey. Lovely motel overall. Suggestion; Book for units upstairs and/ or not end units on lower floor.

We had a garden studio, one bedroom. This was the best stay so far in my two weeks in New Zealand. The room was great, had plenty of space and two queen size beds, one in a bedroom and one in the main room but plenty of space. Full kitchen and very nice bathroom. Wish I was staying more than one night. I would definitely stay again and recommend it to anyone. Easy access right on the main road across from the lake. Less than a mile walking distance to town. There was an attached laundry mat at the lodge as well if someone needed that.

Very well maintained unit with full kitchen including rice cooker. Great for 2 nights stay and 2 hours drive to milford sounds without stopping. Short walk to town centre and lovely walk at the lake. Fresh choice supermarket is only 3 minutes drive.

Our room was comfortable. We had a suite and there as no TV in the bedroom which would have been more comfy.
The bed was comfortable and great to sleep in. The bathroom was good except the shower had a pull around screen instead of a fixed one and we found that once showering the water went everywhere.

Well designed apartment, spotlessly clean. We were not 'lake facing' but had some nice views out of our first floor windows. 10 minute lakeside walk into town.

We had a great stay at Lakeside Motel and Apartments, staying in a one bedroom apartment. The apartment was very clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed, which made our stay even more convenient. Parking was extremely convenient, located right by the door of the apartment. There was also a laundry facility available, which was very useful. The location is excellent, close to many restaurants and stores. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

The property is beautifully landscaped and the view of the lake and boats very nice. We were even treated to a morning rainbow. The unit itself is very liveable, dining table, couches, nice compartmented bathroom, and beds to sleep 5 comfortably. Check in and out were easy, goodwalking distance to town for shopping and eating. The only suggestion is to put a plywood under the double matress, as it sags towards the middle. Recommened!

Very cute motel, with a gorgeous view towards the lake. Huge room with a double bed and another single bed, kitchenette, and a bathroom separate from the toilet. Excellent location, very close to the city center, and the view is gorgeous. Kind and nice staff.
The kitchen is a bit outdated, so I took a point off the ״property's condition״.
But it has everything you need for a meal, including a stove and everything else.

Lovely clean room! Beautiful view that was a short walk to lovely restaurants and cafes.

Would be great if the blind could be turned around to roll down against the window rather than away as it left quite a large gap where we could see out to people walking along the verandah to their room and they could see in.
