The law-abiding backpacker hotel, we stayed for two days, the two-person room did not have a separate bathroom, but was assigned to a house, just no other guests, we will have that one. The saloon can also ~ the kitchen also provides basic pots and pans, etc. ~ Advantages, there is a complimentary breakfast, and there is a hot soup in the evening, although they are all the same thing! And parking is convenient! Disadvantages, I don't know if we are on the side or not, I can't even get wifi, I just ran to the saloon, and there was a bit of noise when it rained, because the roof of the corridor is iron, but the room is not, barely Not too noisy.

Outstanding
TTomtanchThe hotel seems new and all the rooms were very clean. There was also a nice little kitchen and a spa bath tub, which we did not find the time to use. Special mention to the kind lady at the reception who was very helpful and informative. Thanks!
We drove to visit the Fox Glacier Walk and the Lake Matheson Trail, which was about half an hour drive away. There were supermarkets nearby in case one planned to cook or dine in at the restaurants.
蒋蒋小帽Hotel facilities are very good, the room is very large, you can cook, but the rules are more demanding, even the green mouth can not be cooked, there is a need to cook a careful look at the instructions in the room oh ~ room facilities are complete, clean, bathroom wet Separated, the bath water is great. On the night of the day we stayed, the boss specially posted a note to us at the reception. The heating in the room was already open, and it was very heart-warming. The hotel is just opposite the Glacier reservation hall and is just a minute's walk away. The location is very convenient. Very worthy of recommendation.
GGuest UserThe hotel is right on the main road of the town, easy to find, with plenty of parking spaces. The hotel has a front desk, and since we had dinner, we needed to check in by ourselves, which was also very convenient. The room was large, heated, and very comfortable.
梁梁The environment is very good, there are supermarkets and restaurants next to it, the scenery outside the window of the room is beautiful, there are stoves and all kinds of kitchenware, you can cook. It's just that the internet signal in the room is not very good.
VValentellaGreat place to stay! Very close to city center and any restaurant or supermarket. Great host, they have us so many good suggestions. Recommended 100%
GGuest UserA beautiful area just outside of Franz Josef. It's nearby the road, so you may get some traffic noise. Other than that, it was a quiet and restful night there. We could see the milky way at night!
We had a studio, so no kitchen but a microwave was available. There's a laundry as well. Wifi was good.
The manager was very friendly and allowed us to fill out campervan with water.
CCHENGStandard motel, one king bed + one small bed, one family of three, with simple kitchen equipment. There is a heater in the living room, and the small clothes that can be washed can be dried very quickly. The back of the hotel is very open and there is a pony.
