Top Te Anau Downs Hotel Reviews

Lakefront Lodge

Lakefront Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Very roomy accommodation, well set out, with excellent facilities at a very reasonable rate. Lovely welcoming touches with the lavender bags and little chocolates on the pillows. David was very welcoming upon our arrival. The spa bath was a lovely inclusion. Close access to the town centre, eateries and tourist attractions on the lake. A bit of oil on the squeaky cupboard doors would be good, otherwise faultless. Would we stay there again? Definately!"
