New, very spacious, comfortable and fully functional rooms! The location is good because the town is very small anyways... so, of you have a car is 5min to everywhere :) we received a little 250ml bottle of fresh milk for our coffee, wonderful!!
Response from Property: Hi Ingrid, Thank you for your review, we appreciate your comments, I am really happy to hear you like the way we supply the milk for your tea or coffees !

Overall it's no problem. Car can park just beside the room. Good choice if you can't book a hotel at Mt.Cook. It's a small town with supermarkets. Famous in salmon. However, if you like to eat salmon sashimi, you need go earlier otherwise it will be sold out.
Response from Property: Thanks for the review, safe travels

I highly recommend this place. There is a lawn behind the room where you can sunbathe. It is very clean and you can cook. It is very convenient. The only downside is that there are small flying insects. The interesting thing about the local area is that the hotels do not have screens, so many hotels cannot open windows for ventilation. I am also drunk.

The room is big and the bathroom is standard. It just smells like paint. I don't know if it's newly renovated. The old man at the reception is very nice and will give you a bottle of milk to make coffee. You need to go to the next door to pay for the laundry. You can do it.

The motel owner is very nice and always answers all your questions... The motel facilities are clean, simple and complete, and you can prepare simple meals. The location of the motel is good although not in the center of town.

The landlord was very nice. When I arrived, I found that the car had a flat tire and no spare tire was found. The next day, because the phone call was exhausted, the dealer contacted the landlord directly, and the landlord asked the dealer to deliver the tire directly. The room is overall very clean, spacious, and the location is very convenient. Located in the small town of Twizel, 47 minutes from Mount Cook and quite close to Lake Pukaki. The people in this small town are very nice~ However, I want to complain to Ctrip. My father and I had to sleep separately in the double bed and single bed booked on the system. However, when we arrived at the hotel, we found out that Ctrip had assigned us a double bed in the hotel system, which made it inconvenient for us at night. Bad reviews on Ctrip.

They are all square, so there is no noise from upstairs. Clean and hygienic. Used the kitchen. There is a gas station and hotel next to the town center and a large supermarket. We went fishing at High Country B salmon nearby. Reservations are required in advance. You can also purchase and watch others fishing every time you make an appointment. It takes 1 hour to go to Mount Cook from here. Check in 2pm, check out 10am

If you are passing through Mount Cook, you can stay here for one night. It is very close to supermarkets and gas stations.

It is a quiet neighborhood hotel. It is a great location to visit Mound Cook. The advantage of this hotel is the water pressure of a bathhouse. This is my first time experiencing such strong water pressure in a hotel. Although it is an old building, the facilities are well maintained and it is a great value for money place to relax.
