Room was small, but clean. Location is perfect, just a block walk down to beautiful Lake Wanaka (we could see it from our room). I highly recommend it as a destination.

Easy find, as only an overnight work related accommodation wasn't in town for long enough to need all of the facilities. But comfortable enough for what was required.

A safe and convenient place to stay near Lake Tekapo. Our host was awesome and shared knowledge about places to eat and see. Our room(2) was comfortable and well stocked. The beds were comfortable/sheets were clean. The only recommendation I would make would be to clean the mold on the ceiling in the bathroom above the shower. For an older motel this is a quant place to stay!

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I've honestly never had such terrible/disappointing customer service. I was so excited to go to Wanaka, we decided to book when we arrived in Tekapo, but the next day the roads were closed so we had to drive home. I assumed the motel would refund the amount since it wasn't under our control and had been a last-minute booking anyway. Instead, they said I could rebook for another day - problematic since we live nowhere near Wanaka and I'm disabled (it takes a lot of planning to stay somewhere new). I asked again for a refund as this aligns with the Fair Trading Act, and they refused, saying I could only rebook in July. So I tried that and found they wanted to charge me double the original amount because it was a 'busy month' for them. I will be taking them to the tribunal because $200 may seem like nothing to them, but it's a lot of money to lose for me.

Great location close to many restaurants and shops. Parking available on-site or just nearby the hotel if the carpark was full. Room wasn't huge but was comfortable enough for a short stay. Staff were helpful and accommodated our late check-in. Would recommend staying here if you are passing through Wanaka.
