Very cute hotel, very clean, very large room with a special place for two suitcases, all the necessary facilities, including a washing machine and dryer for a nominal fee in the end of the corridor . The staff was great, very friendly and willing to help with everything. The location is excellent, right in the center of town and close to the grocery store and restaurants. Simply wonderful!

Staff were welcoming. All carpets and furnishings appeared new. Parking was good, under the hotel which was good in the rain! Easy walk to Minnehaha trail and local restaurants (enjoyed the Betsey Jane eatery). Good location to drive to glacier and Lake Matheson.

A nice stay in Fox Glacier

Great stay. Quiet. Great team. The only negative was no AC and we had to keep the windows open all night subjecting ourselves to the gnats.

Enjoyed the hotel and our stay, but room had unpleasant odor ( may have been from previous guest vaping). It was also loud with motorcycle driving guests parking under the rooms. Location was excellent and very walkable to all activities in town.

I hadn't realised breakfast was included that was a bonus. It was older building and very quiet - we think no one else stayed the night in the whole place.

This property was well located but I don't think it is worth how much we paid! The rooms are in need of an upgrade and the property is a bit run down. The staff, particularly Ella, was friendly and accommodating. It would be fine if we were paying $100-150 a night but this place was definitely not worth $250!!

Not quite as expected.

This feels more like a motel than a hotel. Breakfast and staff there were ok. Did not see the reception staff on arrival nor at checkout. Key was taped to the reception door in an envelope when we arrived about 5:30 PM. Room was fine. Left the key in the empty reception about 9am when we left . Our expectations were a bit different based on descriptions and price level.

Loved this place.

Traving New Zealand for a month I’ve stayed in posh and cheap places, this was by far my favorite, the rooms were very clean and cozy. The stalff was excellent, nice and helpful and the breakfast was great, can’t recommend this place enough.
