We had a fantastic stay at Mt Cook View Motel! The location is ideal, with beautiful views of the snowy mountains and perfect weather to enjoy them. The owner was incredibly amiable, going above and beyond by preparing our room in advance—he even turned on the heater and lights to welcome us, making it feel cozy right from the start. We appreciated the flexibility with check-in and check-out times, which made our stay even more relaxing. The room was spacious and well-equipped with a heater and an electric blanket, perfect for the chilly evenings. Parking was a breeze, right in front of our room. The owner also suggested a great spot to visit nearby, which really made our trip memorable. We highly recommend Mt Cook View Motel for its warm hospitality, convenience, and incredible mountain views!

Everything!...with a very special mention for the hosts, Trish and Collin, two amazing people with some engaging and picturesque stories to tell. Thank you both for a wonderful stay! Loved the scrumptious breakfasts that were taken in an almost family-like atmosphere, together with the hosts.

We booked along with our accommodation an E-Bike excursion through Fox Glacier Guides. The team there were great and really helpful and friendly. Our guide (Amy) was superb, she was funny, knowledgeable and made our experience truly one to remember. Would highly recommend if you are going to Fox Glacier to undertake the E-Bike tour

We much prefer Fox to Franz Josef.

We much prefer Fox to Franz Josef. Quieter and more village-like. The walk up to Fox Glacier viewpoint is easy, through the wonderful bush and comes out at two amazing viewpoints where you get a great sense of the glacier and the power of the river. A must if you are staying in Fox!

Although we only stayed one night in Fox Glacier, it became one of the highlights of our South Island trip. Mr. Andy was incredibly friendly and gave us excellent local recommendations, including Betsey Jane Eatery & Bar, a nearby lake and a glacier viewpoint. The motel was spotlessly clean, comfortable and surprisingly well-equipped — almost like a hidden gem surrounded by nature. Sitting outside our room under the beautiful starry sky was unforgettable. Excellent value for money and highly recommended.

Beautiful snow topped mountain views from our Hotel.

Beautiful snow topped mountain views from our Hotel. Great local pub for dinner. Matheson Lake with mirrored mountain view very beautiful, a short forest walk from car park and the Cafe there. The lake cafe fabulous mountain views and breakfasts. Nice shopping area in cafe too. Mt Cook and Fox Glacier didn’t disappoint. It was easy to drive around and find the delegated best viewing location for the Glacier.

Location, plenty of hot water for showers. WiFi is poor and communication with staff not great, the phone by the office doesn’t work, put a sign up saying so or get it fixed. The place looks tired but is functional.

As the Fox Glacier has receded the only way to see it close up is by helicopter. As advised by the owner of our hostel you need to go to the view point near Lake Matheson to get a good shot of the whole glacier. Didn't bother to do the trails near the glacier as the views are not as good. Not sure if its worth visiting anymore. We stayed in Fox glacier township which had a good feel to it compared to Franz Josef.
