The Aoraki Court Motel provided a breathtaking view of Mount Cook! The room itself is spacious and amenities were plenty. One thing I think can be improved is the quality of the cooking equipment. The spatula had partially melted/damaged, likely due to misuse from previous guests. But generally I think this place is a good option when staying in the village!

The rooms are spacious and furnished perfectly for explorers. My room also had a lovely view of the mountains. I especially appreciated the desk and the ample drawer space for storage. The small kitchenette was also very useful, as dining options are limited during the winter. It’s well suited for preparing breakfast or other simple meals, though not for cooking large dinners. Overall, I was very satisfied with my stay.

Loved the location with a beautiful view of Aoraki mountain range. Facility was within walking distance to various hiking trails. The staff were friendly with excellent communication. Room was clean neat and tidy, mattress was too springy and soft for my taste.

Very nice accommodations. The kitchen is clean and well stocked and the housekeeping staff tidied up in the room even though we just had a short 2 night stay. Lovely views from the room. Parking spot is right out the front door.

This day was exactly what we needed! There was a warm heater in the bathroom and the shower had an enclosed top so all the humidity and moisture would stay in the shower. The kitchen had all the items we needed to make a simple dinner after a hike. The beds were extremely comfortable. We even had a nice dining table for the three of us extremely clean and modern.
