Close to the waterfront and the centre of town so easy walk to everything. Close to supermarket and restaurants. To be honest we we're expecting much but this was a really pleasant stay. Quitest motel on our entire two week driving holiday. Couldn't recommend anything better for a clean, quite, well kept motel.
The accommodation was comfortable and the family helping to operate this hotel was very friendly and made a number of helpful recommendations. The hotel was also walking distance from the town center. It had a play area for kids and parking is in front of your room. I was particularly impressed by how clean the place was. Highly recommended if you're staying in Te Anau.
The check in was friendly and wonderfully informative about the local area, also enjoyed meeting Molly the dog while being shown to our rooms. The rooms are clean, comfortable and modern.

This was a superb place to stay for a few days and our hosts were delightful. The unit was extremely well equipped with an entire kitchen and general facilities were outstanding.
I had a wonderful experience at this place! It's conveniently located near shops and restaurants, making it easy to explore the milford national park NZ. The space itself is very nice and clean, offering a comfortable and pleasant atmosphere.
This was our favourite accomodation in our 2 week trip in New Zealand. We loved the decor both in the room and the motel surroundings; bed was super comfy; the room was quiet; shower pressure was satisfyingly strong.
A great hotel in Te Anau. Very comfortable with excellent facilities. Warm and cosy, beautifully decorated and set in lovely gardens. Very warm and welcoming hosts. Would definitely stay again
