Sunset Motel
93 Cook Flat Road, 7859 Fox Glacier, New Zealand – Great location - show map
The room is good and spacious for our use. The kitchen well equip with utensils and generous supply of coffee and tea. Our room facing the garden and have good view of distance snow cap mountain. Location is great and short drive to have photo of the Fox Glacier. Super mart is just a short drive to the main road.
SingaporeA real gem. Just far enough from the highway so you can't hear traffic. Fantastic room, cosy, warm and clean. Sit outside all I could hear were song birds and watch the sun set over the mountains. Great way to finish the day.
AustraliaWell located for exploring the area surrounding Fox Glacier. Within walking distance of the township. Clean, comfortable, well appointed accomodation.
New ZealandA perfect motel in Fox Glacier, it exceeded our expectations. The spacy two bedrooms unit has a great mountain view and also great for a family. It's super clean and tidy, also very quiet. We had the best sleep here on our west coast trip.
