Honestly, I halfway chose the place because of the name, but I had a great time. It was smaller than the other places I've stayed at on my trip, but the whole place was well thought out. I especially enjoyed the sliding door and being able to see the stars outside. It would probably still be better to drive out for stargazing though.

Location was reasonably central with a short 10 minute walk to shops etc

The place was very clean, but there were these awful throw covers on the couches. They were badly worn and we were afraid to look under and see what they covered. The furniture was also very uncomfortable. These units are also very close together, so you have to pull all of the drapes for privacy. No outdoor furniture on the patio. Glad we only stayed one night.

While the rooms were clean we discovered that the shower curtain was covered in brown soap slime for the bottom 200mm. I was able to wipe it off with my hand and then onto hand towel leaving a brown stain. It was gross. The tap over the hand basin was loose and able to be moved around. It made us wonder how dirty the room was that we couldn't see. I sent an email to management and never heard back.

We had a wonderful stay at Skyrim Lodge in Lake Tekapo. The keyless check-in process was seamless, which made getting in and settling down a breeze. Our two-bedroom unit was well-equipped and incredibly comfortable. We were completely captivated by the view—the dazzling, snow-capped mountains were a sight to behold. A truly fantastic place for a getaway.

Great spot, lovely accommodation. Would have been 5 star but for the electronic door lock was a bit loose on the door and overly sensitive which meant several goes to get in with man sized fingers. On departure it was impossible to use when frost covered as a hard enough press to register was taken as multiple presses. So if the heat pump was left on apologies 😀

To be honest, expensive for what it is. The units are comfy but small. The shower was full of hair and we had to get the drain cleaned because it would not drain, it also stunk of sewage. They did come and promptly clean it, they were very polite. The sound deadening was not very good between units. All noise would travel. The parking situation while ample, was not ideal. The bed was extremely comfy, the heat pump was very quiet. I was very impressed by those 2 aspects. Plus. Take your own milk, there's hardly any provided. And for the second time I totally disagree with the property's so called conditions on charging for cleaning costs after your stay. Does this mean the apartment is not serviced? $30 an hour! For late check out. Seems extreme.

This is NOT a lodge. It is in an area of new buildings/houses which are designed into individual units. It is an area containing many of these not a lodge. The area is under construction and is a 5 minutes drive from the town. The unit is well appointed clean and quiet but for the average Kiwi be warned, it is more like social housing thanna lodge.

It’s digital check in so make sure you get the room Information before you arrive. Contact the property on their phone number and they will text it to you. If you find it difficult to call from your non-New Zealand phone, go to a bar in town and ask the bartender how to make calls in New Zealand. Worked for me. But without this knowledge you can’t get the room information! So do it early and not at the last minute!
