United Kingdom, August 2023

The room was clean and comfortable. Property is close to the main area with ample parking. The kitchen is spacious and well-equipped. The upgraded room had a balcony with a great view. The host was friendly and helpful.

Felt truly spoilt, no complaints whatsoever.

During my Christmas stay at a certain backpackers in Te Anau, I appreciated the convenient location, as it was situated within walking distance of the town center and the DOC office. the friendly and helpful staff made me feel welcome, providing me with useful information about the area. I particularly enjoyed the cozy common room, which had a social and homey vibe.

There were a few aspects that could be improved. the bed was uncomfortable and in need of replacement.

9.6/10

United Kingdom, August 2023

I got fantastic value for my money at Lakefront Backpackers. The room was comfortable and cozy, and I loved being able to see the beautiful lake view and stars through the window. The location was perfect, right on the lakefront, and the staff were amazing - they even remembered my name when I came back for my second stay!

The breakfast experience could be improved with the addition of a kettle and some tea or coffee provided.

Our stay at Lakefront Backpackers was fantastic! We stayed for a week and had a 4 person Yurt which was cozy and comfortable. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, providing us with plenty of duvets when it got cold. The kitchen was large and well-organized, allowing many people to cook at the same time. The outdoor area with BBQ and stoves was a great addition. We made loads of friends and enjoyed socializing in the TV room. a great value for money option with excellent facilities and a beautiful location.

Can recommend this hotel.

United Kingdom, July 2023

the beds were incredibly comfortable and not being in bunkbeds was a nice change. Our dorm of four had an ensuite bathroom, and I loved the added touch of lights and shelves above each bed. the hostel also had a well-equipped kitchen and a cozy lounge room. the location was perfect, right on the lakefront, with beautiful views and a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. I also enjoyed exploring the nearby bird sanctuary on a free guided walk.

Cannot find any fault. 😊
