Everything we needed

We had a comfortable 3 night stay in a very clean Studio unit, equipped with a kitchenette that had a fridge, microwave, small oven and a two ring electric hob, toaster, kettle and electric frying pan - ideal for producing simple meals. Tea, coffee and biscuits were provided, plus a small bottle of milk on arrival. The ensuite shower provided plenty of hot water at impressive pressure. We had a couple of chairs and a small table. Parking available immediately outside our unit. It was quiet and we slept well. Our host, Andy, was very friendly and gave us useful pointers on the walks/sights in both Fox and Franz Joseph - this helped us get the most out of our time there. His dog Stella was also very friendly. Having SKY TV allowed us to watch the Super Rugby - bonus! We enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to return.

A lovely unit, very clean and well looked after, close to shops and cafes, and everything interesting around Fox Glacier. Staff at the motel are easy-going, and very helpful and friendly. We'll definitely be staying there again next time we're in the area. Highly recommended.

This place was so nice. The view over the mountain right behind was great, as well as being close to Fox glacier, whether to go for a hike close by, or get a great viewpoint over it. The whole area is so peaceful. The person who takes care of the place was also really friendly, and this makes the difference!!
