Convenient location in the middle of town, within walking distance to shops, restaurants and the lake. Room was a bit dated and on the smaller side - it felt quite cramped with two suitcases. We could hear noise through the walls but fortunately our neighbours didn't stay up late. The Wi-Fi was also weak and disconnected frequently. With a few upgrades, the motel could be quite nice.

Comfortable room, tinted windows for privacy, free parking, central location, good sized room, teas, coffees and hot chocolate in room, I like that you could help yourself to more in the laundry room. Fridge, microwave and kettle provided in room.

Only downside is the washer/drier shrunk my cotton t shirt. We did a warm wash and normal tumble dry so might be worth putting the drier on the delicates setting.

The room was very basic and honestly quite underwhelming for what we paid. Nothing was particularly wrong, but nothing stood out either.

For the cost, we expected a much better room and overall experience. It felt overpriced and did not offer good value compared to other options in the area. I wouldn’t choose to stay here again unless the pricing were significantly lower.

Excellent Motel in a great location

Good size room which was spotlessly clean. Room was serviced as often as you wanted which we liked because you don't need your room serviced every day so we opted for every second day which was fine. Provisions (e.g. toilet paper, coffee and tea, etc.) were replenished whenever the room was serviced. Quiet location but in the heart of town with many great eating places a short stroll away.

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!

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.

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

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).

A fairly basic motel, but it does the job. The location in central Wanaka is excellent
