I liked this hotel in this small town surrounded by stunning views of the rolling mountains. The rooms were comfortable (though the tub faucet dripped through the night). It’s a great value for a place with such interesting features.

Owners were lovely, as were the kitchen/ dining area attendants. The place had so much character. David and Wayne were very welcoming and helpful. The view from the dining room and our room was magnificant. Breakfast was the nicest Mark and I had eaten. We decided to stay two nights instead of one.

Friendly manager who was very helpful. Very convenient location in between Lake Tekapo and Wanaka with huge property and hot tubs across the road. This will be a gem away from busyness of Lake Tekapo once renovated. Very clean despite the dated decor. Poop table and stunning views to the ranges plus great star gazing.

Everything you needed was in the room.

Apart from a leaking toilet everything was in order. We paid about $30 for the full buffet breakfast and it was worth it.

Dave

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
We were shunted from a hotel in Omarama that we had booked because of an earlier seasonal close than anticipated. Advice was that it would be an upgrade whereas in fact we were put in a very dated hotel with an unclean room with terrible carpet stains, non functioning smoke alarm, poky shower with curtain and shower rose which hardly functioned. All in all a very unsatisfactory experience and grossly overpriced. Definitely do not recommend this hotel.

我會再次入住及推薦。

這座擁有63年歷史的老飯店，如同一位優雅的貴婦，依然散發著迷人的風韻。古老的壁爐與古色古香的家具，承載著歲月的痕跡與溫暖，營造出濃厚的懷舊氣息。酒店四周廣闊空曠，遠處偶爾可見滑翔機翩然起降，增添了一份靜謐與悠然。而當夜幕降臨，特別是晚間十點過後，滿天星辰鋪滿天空，這一幕宛如夢境，讓人不禁感到心靈的治癒與平靜。 飯店經理熱情好客，即使我們提前數小時抵達，也始終面帶笑容，親切接待，還貼心地幫我們提行李上樓。他時刻關注我們的需求，晚間更主動分享了他親自拍攝的極光照片——是的，極光！就在這片空曠天地間，今年八月的夜晚，極光奇景在此悄然綻放。 早餐由廚師精心現場製作，豐盛而多樣，滋味令人滿足。入住當晚，恰逢酒店舉行預訂晚餐，我們有幸參與其中。菜色精緻可口，尤其是傳統紐西蘭風味的烤羊肉，外酥內嫩，回味無窮。 酒店的員工展現出紐西蘭人特有的真誠與親切，當得知我們來自台灣時，特意升起台灣國旗致以歡迎，這溫暖的舉動讓我們深受感動。 傍晚時分，我們最愛坐在酒店的寧靜廊道上，捧著一杯熱茶，任思緒在靜謐中放空，讓一天的疲憊悄然散去。 感謝這座飯店的悉心款待，讓我們擁有了一段難以忘懷、充滿溫馨與美好的假期時光

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Wir waren fast die einzigen Gäste in dem Hotel und mussten sogar einmal zum Frühstück in ein anderes Hotel fahren, da es angeblich einen “Störfall” mit der Elektrik im Haus gab. Wir standen morgens um halb Acht vor einem verschlossenen Restaurant. Die Rezeption hat erst um 8:00 geöffnet. Erst dann haben wir erfahren, dass wir auswärts Frühstücken müssen. An ersten Tag gab es auch keinen Roomservice und es wurde nichts gemacht. Ausstattung und gesamte Einrichtung war sehr alt und abgewohnt. Wir würden die Unterkunft sicher nicht mehr nutzen, obwohl es für die “Unannehmlichkeiten am Ende eine kleine Reduzierung des Übernachtungspreises gab.
