We really liked the cinema suites. We had driven up from Milford Sound in the pouring rain and, arriving before midday, we never expected the apartment to be ready. However, it was and it was great to be able to get out of the rain. The suite is much larger than we expected, with a large king size bedroom area in the lounge/diner, a huge bathroom & a kitchenette plus another large twin bedroom with its own bathroom. It was really too big for us but we enjoyed the comfort and "cooking" our own meal (there is a microwave and a Fresh Choice supermarket across the road) after 3 weeks in hotels. There was a complimentary bottle of red or white NZ wine plus tickets to the cinema to see a Fiordland film which we really enjoyed following our trip to Milford Sound. If you don't want to cook, the Black Dog bar downstairs does food or there are several restaurants in Te Anau. The weather was so wet during our one night stay that we binge-watched the Crown on Netflix which was available as a guest on the suite TV! The only reason I've not given 5 * for this place is the location. Yes, it is very central in Te Anau but most of the tourist accommodation is situated by the beautiful lake, which you wouldn't even know was there from the Cinema suite.
