    Overall Quality

    Pros +

    • friendly staff, good location, good price-service ratio
    • Very well maintained, well equipped and clean place. The rooms are in a separate chalets, like cabins, but fully furnished, with small kitchenette and full bathroom.
    • Close to the Disc golf course and an easy walk to the city center.

    Cons -

    • All good.
    • I arrived too late to enjoy the City center.
    • Bathroom was adequate however poor ventilation which resulted in the bathroom awash with steam and water and slippery tiles after shower. There was a sign bluetacked to mirror warning of this.

    Location good. Have stayed here a few times so value for money ok. The place could do with an upgrade though.

    Bathroom was adequate however poor ventilation which resulted in the bathroom awash with steam and water and slippery tiles after shower. There was a sign bluetacked to mirror warning of this.

    Loved that each chalet is separated from the others. Very quiet. Comfortable bed. Great to have full cooking facilities

    8BrianPosted on: 12-22-2025

    We had a late arrival they left a nice sign on the window. Keys were left in the room. Staff was super friendly. made a simple late night dinner , will come back again.

    8LeftonPosted on: 12-20-2025

    easy and lovely location to Mt. Cook

    water pressure in shower wasnt great

    10KortniPosted on: 12-16-2025

    Very nice cabins plenty of room and great location. Check in and out was very easy. Location was very convenient highly recommend!

    8TimPosted on: 12-15-2025

    Room was very clean and quiet. Great location with a short (12min) walk into town and close to a good coffee shop and the main road.

    Beds were quite soft. But that's a personal preference.

    10JessicaPosted on: 12-13-2025

    The little a frame rooks are super cute and private, and the bed was comfortable

    5RichardPosted on: 12-11-2025

    The chalets were easy to find, just off the main highway. The bathroom was new and although small, pretty nice.

    The chalet was very old and was dark and did not smell fresh. Opened all of the curtains and windows and turned on the ceiling fan that helped a bit but still pretty dark. Some of the chalets had an extra window at the top which would have been better.

    8PratapPosted on: 12-9-2025

    Compact near to every thing

    We got shut which had no proper direction and road

    9JuliePosted on: 12-4-2025

    Spacious, and clean. Tea and coffee available ( instant). Comfortable beds.

    No complaint.

    9CarriePosted on: 12-1-2025

    Self contained bungalow, cooking facilities, ample space. The cafe opposite offered good breakfast.

    Climbing narrow stairs to access the upper floor beds. Might not suit those who have accessibility issues

    9JenniferPosted on: 11-8-2025

    Lovely location. Chalets were very quaint, fit the setting very well. Quiet mornings, comfy bed and pillows. Delightful town.

    7ShellPosted on: 10-17-2025

    Perfect spot to stop for the night, easy location to find, large spacious chalet.

    Heating wasn't working properly.

    7DagangPosted on: 10-17-2025

    Good location, convinient parking, nice view.

    facilities are out dated

    9DonnaPosted on: 10-9-2025

    Affordable, clean and close to the central market place.

    6LaurenPosted on: 10-6-2025

    Rooms were a great size, kids had heaps of room in the loft. Rooms were dated but clean. Was great having an oven for an easy night in after being on the road.

    WiFi didn't work very well from withing the chalets. Couch was far from TV, layout could be better.

    10TerencePosted on: 10-2-2025

    So conveniently located and easy access to to the main road. Great small town with enough shops for all needs. Sharp A-frame and cozy with all accessories in the kitchen.

    The parking was a bit tight to the next driveway but in no way over weighed all the positive.
