We had booked for 2 nights and left after the first night. The washing machine located on the premises and advised to be used by the staff destroyed approximately $600 of laundry that was washed. The blaze, indifferent and eye rolling response from the ‘owner’ was frustrating and unhelpful. After being fobbed off to deal with someone called Logan, his unprofessional business manner and redirection of blame to me was flabbergasting and amazing. After reading Tripadvisor reviews, there is a clear connection with Logan being a previous owner or manager of the motel and now has a strange connection with the faulty laundry that is everyone else’s fault but his. As our stay continued there were more issues to arise. The room was stifling hot. I appreciate that NZ motels are not use to this warm weather and therefore to not have air conditioning but to not include a fan is terrible. We struggled to sleep the first night as we could not get a breeze in the room. Our room backed directly onto the Alice May restaurant which created loud operation noise, cooking smells and light from the restaurant. The bed was far from comfortable. Even though the bed is a King bed capable of becoming 2 singles, there should be a mattress topper on the bed to alleviate the ridge down the middle and the fact the beds are hard and probably old. The linen smelt of oil or cooking fats, I can only assume this is because of the location of the restaurant or the fact the motels washes and dries the towels in full public view in the car park exposed to air from the restaurant. The Terrace was the 6th hotel we had stayed in during our time in NZ. The bathroom amenities they provided are exactly the same brand that some others have provided…the only difference, this motel has obviously watered down the amenities. They were watery and ineffective. Much like the amenities, the shower head in the room was ineffective and pathetic. Cleary during their recent ‘refurb’ these new shower heads had been installed. Unfortunately, ours sprayed every direction but where is should and if you had it turned down too low there was no water but have it too high and it would sting you. The next morning, we decided we could not stay an extra night at the property and checked into another motel for the night. There are plenty of other and no doubt better options in Franz Joseph.

We stayed for 1 night. The room and bathroom were clean and tidy. Although the room was small, it was not an issue for 1 night. We had dinner in the restaurant, nice food. Very convenient for the pools. Staff very friendly. Would recommend to anyone.

The hotel is very good. The room was very satisfying, the heating was adequate, and it didn't feel cold in winter. There are also Chinese staff at the front desk. There are restaurants and bars, but they didn't go. The location is very good, next door is the seasons and shops of the two tourist companies, the intercity bus station is also there, very close. The only bad thing is that the room is too poorly soundproofed.

The whole hotel is located in the rainforest. Each room is a tree house. The car can be driven to the hotel room. It is the best choice to enjoy the closeness to nature! And the hotel's facilities are very new, although it is a tree house, but there are Bluetooth audio, TV, coffee machine and other equipment in the room, the hotel's breakfast is also very rich, a large amount! Because we are honeymoon, the hotel also sent a bottle of champagne, too considerate!

The Chinese boss is enthusiastic and parking is free. The kitchen is a bit small.This small town serves the glacier project. The hardware cannot be too high, after all, the price is there. Cost-effective for self-driving tourists.

We stayed one night at Fox Glacier Lodge in one of the separate cabins. While the cabin was clean and roomy the cabins are next to the camper van park provided by the Lodge which does not provide a good optic. There was a boil water order in place at the time of our visit. While the order may have covered more than just the Lodge the Lodge did not provide any bottled water for things such as brushing teeth. Breakfast was some eggs and other items left in the fridge for you to cook your own. Staff seemed bored. The Lodge is adequate for a quick overnight stay on your way through the area but we would not stay again.

FAQs

Is Mount Cook Village worth visiting? ›

Your answer is Mount Cook and as high as you can afford! Mount cook boasts the most epic scenery in NZ. The national park offers up the highest mountain (Aoraki/Mt Cook), the longest glacier (Tasman Glacier) and the bluest lakes (Lake Pukaki and Lake Tekapo) as your view.

Do you need chains to drive to Mt Cook Village? ›

Do I Need Snow Chains to Drive to Mt Cook? It is highly unlikely that you'll need snow chains to drive to Mt Cook, as the road there (State Highway 80) runs along a valley floor with little elevation. If travelling between June and August, New Zealand's winter, it is a good idea to carry snow chains.

How to drive to Mount Cook National Park? ›

The road to Mount Cook starts just outside of Twizel. It takes around 45 minutes to reach Mount Cook Village, but you'll probably spend longer on the journey. The road is fairly straight and easy to drive, although you may need chains if it has snowed recently.
