Bella Vista Motel Fox Glacier, hotel in Fox Glacier

Bella Vista Motel Fox Glacier is easy to find, located right in the heart of the Fox Glacier Village. Only a few minutes’ walk from shops, cafés and restaurants.

The lady at the reception was amazing, very kind, always smiling and always here to make things convenient. The place was big, quiet and very convenient location. Comodities was very good and the place very clean. We slept so well, that we booked again Bella Vista in Wanaka. The little plus, thanks for the tissues, we appreciated the gesture 😁

    Fox Glacier is quite stunning, walk is relatively easy to first viewing point, we didn't get any further due to bad weather. Lovely eating places in town and a grocery store. Quite a small town so very quiet. We weren't there long enough to really explore the area

    As a hiker I loved the lakes walks, and also the glacier lookout walk would have been great but the weather on that day was just too wet to complete. The lake Matheson cafe is a lovely place after a hike or good breakfasts beforehand. The town is limited, so if I wasn’t a hiker I would only have stayed a night and moved on.

    There are several interesting walks to the glacier, lake etc. The helicopter to the glacier itself can be booked easily from the town. There are a number of good restaurants within easy walking distance. A overnight stay is all that is required to see & do everything.

    We did the short tramp to Fox Glacier.

    We did the short tramp to Fox Glacier. It’s totally worth the effort. It’s only 30min drive to Franz Joseph where we tramped the 5 hr Roberts Point track. Reasonably arduous tramp, but again totally worth the effort.

    it was fantastically clean, which I appreciated having stayed in a pod the night before. Fox Glacier itself is very beautiful and peaceful however is further and quieter than the neighbouring glacier Franz Josef. The room was large and everything was spotless, staff were very accomodating and friendly, showed me what was near by and a recommended spot to grab a bite which I am very thankful for. Just a shame I visited on a cloudy day and there wasn’t much to see.

    We had a cabin room with 4 people. There was plenty of room. The cabin was clean and tidy. The kitchenette was well stocked for making breakfast. Breakfast is not included. The second room has a loft window so you are woken by the light at sunrise. The bathroom had a shower with good water pressure and hot water. The location was best for us being across from Fox Glacier Guides.

    Location was perfect! Short drive to town and walking distance to a popular eatery, Betsey Jane. Room and bathroom were very clean. I personally loved the heated mattress topper. The staff was very helpful in guiding us into things to do and see around Fox Glacier. She also answered our questions about things to do in Franz Josef as we were driving there the next day.

    An excellent "cabin", much better, more modern than many motel I've stayed in. A TV in the lounge area and another TV in the bedroom! Excellent bathroom and shower, excellent kitchen and facilities. All very clean. A bonus was the 7kW EV charger right beside my unit so I could charge overnight. It's the only public charger in Fox Glacier!

    It's just a basic motel. The price is ok compared to other motels in this area (the accommodation in this area are way too expensive and equipped with only basic things too). For a one night stay it's ok. If you come to fox glacier just to see lake matheson, think again. It's not worth your petrol, time, and money.

    The motel locates in the very good spot of Fox Glacier town. The room is as good as always. I have been there many times and the quality still remain. Even the location is away out of town but reacheable. You can walk to Fox Glacier town if you with but travelling by car is more convenience.

    Stunningly beautiful location. The comfortable rooms were well-appointed and cosy - able to withstand the rapidly changing Winter weather in Fox Glacier. The proprietor could not have been more helpful and friendly. We very much enjoyed our stay in this lovely place.

    Good location, right in the centre of Fox Glacier town. Free parking right outside. It was useful to have a kettle & fridge in our en-suite room, and we also had use of the large well-equipped communal kitchen which was nearby. Comfortable bed & good shower.

    I want to give a special shout out to Matt for being so helpful with my booking for a helicopter ride out of Fox Glacier. Although things didn’t go as hoped in the end, it certainly wasn’t because he didn’t go above and beyond to try and I’m grateful for that.

    The location was great - very close to Fox Glacier township but quite rural and very quiet. Spectacular views to the mountains! An extensive and really good breakfast and our hosts, Trish and Colin, were friendly, with good advice and suggestions.
