Great location. Clean and extremely friendly and helpful owners.

Angela United States of America

Excellent location: downtown Te Anau, the National Park, and the waterfront were all within easy walking distance, and a large city park is adjacent to the hotel. Nice ground-floor two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit with kitchen and sitting room. The heated bed mattresses are handy for cool nights, and the built-in benches in the bedrooms for holding luggage were a nice touch, as were the lights and light switches over the beds. We appreciated our own off-road parking space, too, and liked the book exchange in the main office. The managers are nice folk!

Gail United States of America
