The room was immaculate. The bed, so comfortable, the shower water pressure was brilliant, the cooked breakfast was beautifully presented and totally delicious. The staff were so accommodating allowing us to use their kitchen for filling hotwater bottles, and making flasks, (to take along to our daughters gym competition as the facility had no heating). I would definitely stay there again.

Placement of customers fridge , was out in the laundry, therefore any customer would have to walk outside the building and around the side to get any if there personal items, which is ridiculous especially at nightime.

Te Wanaka Lodge was a comfortable and good value place to stay. The rooms were clean and tidy. An excellent breakfast was provided and this time was spent with others exchanging thoughts and ideas about our individual journeys. Highly recommended.

Reasonable Choice in an Expensive Town
Effectively lodge accommodation in pricey Wanaka, well located for walking to dining options and shops. On-site parking was convenient. Drawbacks were creaky construction with noise from upstairs rooms, beds too soft for our tastes, and malfunctioning door lock..

Not sure why Expedia reviews are mostly positive, Expedia may needs to revise. Previous guest left feed back in a file which have not taken out by housekeeping, he rated below average. To be fair I’m giving an average, the place is dated and not well maintained , noise from street , noise from neighbors nearby walking and closing doors can easily heard and woke us up. Light bulb in the bathroom is out ,only heater lights work make it feels like sauna. Leaves on the balcony need to be cleaned. No coffee or kitchen utensils provided in the room that’s why breakfast is included but make sure you have to be there by 9am

Simple accommodation, convenient and clean. No kitchen and no access to laundry, but there was a fridge and hot water, so we didn't really need these services during our brief stay.

A good location and the eateries, shops etc are very easy walk, the reception people were great, helpful and friendly but we let down by the breakfast staff. The room was basic with few amenities and no fridge, safe etc but clean and functional and the buffet breakfast cooked section was scrambled eggs and bacon only no quite what was expected. Overall not too bad but would stay elsewhere in future

There's always a "but..."
The main problem with Te Wanaka Lodge is that although it ticks most of the boxes, each box comes with a but... Location is good but - it's right on a main road with intrusive traffic noise late and early. Rooms are well equipped but - they look dark and tired and fixtures and fittings are broken or don't work (bedside cabinet fell apart and bathroom light didn't work etc) Beds are comfortable but - the walls and ceilings are so thin you can hear everything in the rooms adjacent or above you making sleep difficult. Parking is available but - there are only 4 or 5 spaces so if you're the 6th person back you have to park in the public car park at the back of the lodge. The staff are pleasant but - they disappear at 8:30pm so when you get back at 9:30 and find a problem there's no one to help. It sounds like I'm being picky but at $350NZ a night I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a bit more than unfortunately I received.
