"Good all round hotel in Fox … only real complaint, apart from no (open) restaurant on site, was the noise from other rooms … apart from that very pleasant."

Lake Matheson Motel
10/10 Excellent
"A great place to stay. What they do they do well. Very comfortable. We stayed 3 nights. We cooked dinner each now night. Although there wasn’t anyone around we could call someone in charge if needed. Room was clean and tidy. Heater worked a treat and was on when we arrived at check in which is a nice welcoming touch as still cold outside. "
"We were super-comfortable in our small suite with everything we needed for a thoroughly enjoyable 3 night stay.
There were wonderful views out on to the Fox range mountains, and only a 5min walk from the excellent and very atmosphetic Cook and Saddle cafe.
Lake Matheson with its memorable rainforest walk, the mirrored reflections of Mtns Tasman and Cook, and the welcoming cafe offering excellent fare to eat and drink - as well as a local artist's gallery - was a real bonus.
Thanks, Andy, for a rest stay!"
"Fantastic spacious rooms with plush carpet and well equiped kitchen. Couch was huge and comfy. Beds comfortable with beautiful large windows, mountain and hill views. Easy access to glacier lookout and lake. "
"This place was recommended to us because Karen manages it and she was very helpful. She accommodated our late arrival and recommended great things to do in town and the next day during our drive down the coast. "
