The staff is so friendly and accommodating. We had an early morning helicopter hike that was cancelled and we’d already returned our key. They were so kind and gave us our key back so that we could get back in the room while we waiting to see if the clouds would clear. The room was clean, felt freshly updated, and was well stocked. Great value for the price.

This is a great place for a family to stay. Nearby shops and restaurants.
Patrick
Highly recommended hotel.
An amazing hotel room, very spacious and with a rain forest outside the patio doors. The staff were excellent. My only criticism is driving to our cabin as the road is narrow, but if you take care it’s not a problem.
Mark
Lovely staff, gave us good recommendations for dining and an umbrella for the short walk. Room was great
Jasmine
Nice little motel with great staff!
We had a great stay at Punga Grove! It was a perfect place to lay our heads after a long travel day. It was such a nice feeling to get out of the car with our tired, grumpy, restless kids, and be greeted with such warmth and kindness from the person at the front desk. We all perked up immediately. The loft suite was perfect for our family of five. The room was very tidy, and the beds were comfortable.
David
We loved the room and the surroundings. It felt like sleeping in the rainforest. Easy to walk to everything and lovely people working at reception who were very helpful.
Alison

Spacious, kitchen
Geoffrey
Excellent stay
Great location in walking distance from everything but surrounded by thick rainforest which gives it a very private feel.
Spacious rooms and comfortable furnishings.

The room, I think it was an executive suite, was very comfortable and quiet. We loved that it looked into some forest so it felt very private. We ate meals on the deck. The kitchenette had all the basic tools we needed. The fireplace was extra cozy and warmed the room quickly. The jetted tub was so relaxing after a day of hiking! Overall, we loved it and would recommend and stay again.
sarah
Loved our stay here!!! Amazing service too
Stuart
Nice spot. Room very comfortable and staff went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. There were lots of nice walks closeby.
Jessica
Very close to shops and attractions. Easy parking. Lovely glass indoor patio gave a feel of being close to nature. Upstairs blinds were not very good at blocking out light for sleeping in Summer. Be aware if travelling with young children their bedroom is downstairs and master is a loft upstairs. Toilet access downstairs. Lovely area to stay in.
Brian
Good value
Great hotel with good price.
Ted
Only issue was our neighbors were chain smokers! You should have seen the bottle of butts. We couldn’t open our patio door very often. We ask the then to please smoke somewhere else. They were rude! Not from NX
Vanessa
Lovely motel in a great location, with wonderful staff.
Daniel
The only negative was the heat was still ON when it was already hot and stuffy outside. No AC so we didn’t have the greatest sleep. Otherwise a very nice place to stay for the night. Right next to a TON of activities.
Steve
Tranquil environment, spacious & extremely comfortable apartment. Everything you need is supplied and staff were friendly, helpful & informative
Linda
We love our room at the Punga Grove! It looked back onto a forest. It felt very chalet like!
Margaret
Great spot for an overnight.
Great spot. Staff was cheerful and friendly. No bath mat that I could find. Super restaurant practically next door -Monsoon.
kylie
This was a lovely place to stay. Really appreciated the fireplace being on when we arrived. The room was well laid out and very clean. Only complaint was the scaffolding around the place (was not noisy though).
Gillian
Staff very welcoming & friendly.
Heating was on in the room on a cold afternoon for our arrival.

Only able to get WiFi when sitting on the toilet. It is 2024 and good WiFi should be a given!
bronwyn
We were super impressed with the room . The view of fernery and the wild birds that were within arms reach while enjoying a glass of red on the back deck was truly special. Thank you so much for a wonderful relaxing comfortable stay. Located walking distance to Main Street and restaurants but still peaceful.
Rob
Beautiful, spacious room with lovely patio right next to some rainforest (we didn't really get to us it, unfortunately, because it was raining the night we were there). Also very close to all food options
Michael
Ideal motel if staying in Franz Joseph, would stay again

Excellent overnight stopping point. Been twice before. Excellent.

Great Place
Beautiful place, great location. Owner very friendly and helpful. Sitting on porch was peaceful and nice way to relax
Darcie
The best accommodation I stayed in during my NZ travels. Beautiful rooms, comfortable bed, great kitchen etc. From the room, you have a wonderful view of nature from the patio. The Australian manager (can't remember his name unfortunately), at check-in, was very friendly and took the time to share the best walks and restaurants in the area. I can't recommend this hotel enough.
ted
Good location plenty restaurants nearby
Bruce
Wonderful, beautiful hotel
Very friendly managers and check in was quick and pleasant and we were given lots of information about the town and restaurants. Parking was easy and the hotel is close to everything. Beautiful room, the fire place was such a nice touch on a cold day in Franz Josef. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it ton anyone wanting a great stay in Franz Josef.
Stephen
So good, we changed our plans and stayed a second night.
Leonie

Receptionist was great
Christopher
Property was a close walk to the downtown area and easy access to get back on the road. I liked the room a lot and it felt private and was quiet. Check-in was easy and the staff was friendly.
The only issue I had was checking out early. I ended up locking the key in the room because no one was at the front desk and there was no drop box for the key.
