10/10 Exceptional

The motel was a bit old, but the location is fantastic at the center of town and walkable to many eateries and shop. There is construction works going on at the plot of land beside the motel, and might be noisy at times

Jon, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great clean place, pricy for a motel but unmatched lakeside view of the lake and the glacier behind. It’s easy to walk out to the lake at night to see the stars and directly across the parking lot from dark sky. As others had mentioned the included western breakfast option (eggs and toast) were pretty horrible - McDonald’s style reheated eggs on thin under-toasted white bread. The Chinese meat and noodle soup breakfast looked delicious but noticed too late to ask if that was included in the room voucher.
Jenna, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent location. Walking distance to Lake Tekapo and Church of Good Shepherd Parking full, need to park nearby (though couldn't understand why carpark was full, given each apartment has its own parking lot). Shower compartment not tight shut. Could case flooding in bathroom. Else all is great
2-night trip

6/10 Good

Dorms were in good enough condition. The area is near lots of restaurants and activities so that was a major plus!
Martha, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room is quite basic but spotlessly clean. We could hear our upstairs neighbours moving about all night. Location is ideal. Parking is free but limited. Big breakfast at nearby restaurant included. Overall would recommend and Lake Tekapo area is a must visit.
Helene, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Our only concern was we didn’t get wifi with our late check in. As international travellers this was a bit disappointing. Otherwise nice stay, great location.
