The location was perfect - close to town and with stunning views. Kaz was fantastic and the breakfast was great. The lodge was well-appointed with lovely rooms. The hosts were welcoming and we enjoyed the company of their dogs.

Nothing, it is perfect.

Great value for money, the rooms were amazing - big and clean, with heated floors in the bathroom. The lodge is in a peaceful location, just a short drive from the town centre. The staff were welcoming and friendly, offering good chats by the communal fireplace.

The breakfast could have been better with more variety or options.

Beautiful and cozy room with spacious interior. Friendly and helpful staff. Convenient location near the Franz Josef Glacier and town

Limited views from the room, only mountain view. Pricey compared to other accommodations in South Island.

We had a fantastic stay at a lovely hotel with a beautiful mountain view. The room was spacious and well-equipped, with a separate work area. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the facilities were of high quality. We appreciated the effort made to organize a helicopter ride over the glaciers. The location was convenient, just a short drive from town. The cozy fire in the main house was the perfect place to relax with a beer and pet the owner's dogs. We couldn't have been happier with the whole experience.

Can't recommend this hotel highly enough!

I recently stayed at a lodge in Franz Josef for a few nights. The location was perfect, just a two-minute walk to the town center. The lodge was well appointed with great amenities, including a communal fireplace and outdoor seating area with stunning mountain views. The room itself was spacious and had a separate work station, which was convenient. The bathroom with heated floors was a luxurious touch. The hosts were welcoming and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was enjoyable, even arranging a helicopter ride over the glaciers. a fantastic and enjoyable stay at this lodge.

Can recommend this hotel.

I had a fantastic stay at the lodge. The location was perfect, just a quick walk from the town center. The rooms were spacious and well-appointed, and I loved the manuka aroma outside. The breakfast provided was delicious and the staff, particularly Kaz, were friendly and helpful. The surrounding landscape views were absolutely breathtaking.

Nothing.

I had a fantastic stay at this lodge! The room was comfy and spacious, allowing me to have a good rest and regain my energy for the next day. The staff at the hotel were amazing - the reception lady went above and beyond to help me book last-minute glacier hiking and even prepared breakfast for me because of my early check out. The location was convenient, only a short drive from town. I highly recommend this hotel for its cleanliness, facilities, and staff.

Don't have any issues at all.

We loved the spacious rooms, delicious breakfast, and stunning setting. The friendly staff provided helpful information and made us feel welcome.

Nothing bad to say - our stay was perfect.

The location was perfect - only 2 mins from town center. Kaz was a fantastic host. The lodge had great amenities and beautiful surrounding landscape views. The suite upgrade was spacious and luxurious. Communal areas were beautiful, and the breakfast spread was delicious.

Can't fault the property.

The young staff members were welcoming and accommodating. The room had a nice outdoor seating area with mountain views. The bedroom was spacious and well-equipped, including a separate work station. The efforts they made to arrange a helicopter ride were appreciated. The overall stay was enjoyable.

Lovely, quiet, and peaceful location. Friendly and easy to deal with manager. Great facilities, including a cozy guest lounge with a fireplace. Good variety in continental breakfast. Beautiful lounge with a view of the mountains. Helpful host, with thoughtful extras like a fruit bowl in the room.

Nothing that I didn't like.

Fantastic value, helpful staff, lovely setting, spacious room, great amenities.

Can't fault anything about it.

The Lodge was a much welcomed surprise after a long drive through the mountains. The cozy chalet-style interior and perfect service made us feel pampered. Our suite was so comfortable that we opted to have a relaxing night in, enjoying wine and food from the local grocery store. The next morning, we had a delicious breakfast with plenty of options. The location, just 5 minutes from the Franz Josef Glacier, was perfect. I highly recommend this hotel for a relaxing stay near the glaciers.

Lovely lodge, great location just outside of town with stunning mountain views. Rooms were well-fitted and spacious, with luxurious bathrooms featuring heated floors. The lodge had excellent amenities, including a billiards room, guest lounge with amazing views, and a library and DVD library. Breakfast was delicious and the staff went above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay.

The lodge is a bit pricy compared to other accommodations in the area. Also, the description mentioned ocean views, but our room only had a mountain view.

Generously sized rooms. Beautiful breakfast. Gorgeous setting. Friendly host. Lots of information provided.

Nothing not to like.
