United KingdomVery new, very clean, easy check-in, and very friendly reception! Great value for money, and only 4km from Franz Joseph and plenty of great places to eat. Would highly recommend staying there and would stay there again for sure.
AustraliaThe room was very clean and modern, and well equipped. We appreciated the second bed in a separate room for our child. Staff were lovely and helpful. Very quiet also.
AustraliaNew place with excellent staff. Amazing bathroom, and great TV channels. Sparkling clean.
United Arab EmiratesThis place was probably the nicest one we stayed at on our family road trip. Seriously couldn’t believe how accurate the pictures were and how great the unit was. It was very spacious with a vaulted family room that was amazing to relax in after a long drive. Lots of light once you open the curtains and the bathroom was very nice. Definitely will check for availability here again in the future if I’m in the area.
United States of AmericaVery quiet, clean, and comfortable. Liked kitchen for making bkf. Staff very helpful and made reservations for us for the heli for glacier. She was very knowledgable about different tours and booked an easy one for me that I was able to do. I was very thankful since I had only seen adds for the longer hikes on glacier.
