Great place if you love views of snowy mountains.
Great place if you love views of snowy mountains. Lots of locations nearby to visit for views and walks. Loved hearing the kea on the mountains and going to nearby Okarito to see the White Heron/kotuku. Would love to come back and try the hot pools when they are back open. Alice May restaurant has the tastiest garlic bread I have ever tried. The meal was great.

We last visited Franz Josef 45 years ago and it was sad to see that it has receded quite a bit since then, but was still awesome to view. We enjoyed the walk to the lookout. The township is small but welcoming with some good eating places.

So many things to do! So stunning and heaps of fun! We loved going to the private hot tubs in the rainforest, the quad bikes and the really short walk to the views of the glacier. Next time we will probably do the helicopter ride though!

We loved that we were surround by nature the whole time. Hearing all the birds and insects was really nice. Must do is a heli trip up to the glacier, we considered not doing it, but SUPER glad we did.

Franz Joseph is a beautiful location with lots of things to do. My family and I all went sky diving and it was one of the most amazing experiences we had! We also did the Quad bike tour in the rain which was great fun and thrilling!! So many walks, hot pools, the Kiwi birds and tuatara... just an amazing place :)

Bella Vista Motel Franz Josef Glacier
Franz Josef
From $81 per nightSadlyI didn't see Franz Josef as it appears on post cards. The Coast does have a reputation for rain, and it rained non stop for the two days I was there which put a dampener on the "Glacier Country" experience. The room I had was an economy room, okay for 1 person but would be small for more than one. High standard of cleanliness and comfortable bed. Appreciated being asked if I would like a ground floor or upstairs unit.
Gail New Zealand -
Possibly the best trained (or maybe it just came naturally) staff I have ever experienced in a hotel. No exceptions, every one we met was fantastic. Restaurant does beautiful meals that are very well priced. Room exceptionally comfortable, especially the down mattress protector on the bed. Luxury! And of course the location and outlook are wonderful.
