High Country Motel & Backpackers
7.8 (72 reviews)

High Country Motel & Backpackers ★★

📍 23 MacKenzie Drive, Twizel

"It's also good; there are restaurants and local supermarkets nearby."

Glencairn Beauty
9.7 (43 reviews)

Glencairn Beauty ★★★

📍 16 Glencairn Road, Twizel

"Highly recommended! It's much better than the hotel we stayed at in Christchurch. The four bedrooms are enough for seven or eight people. The rooms are very clean, parking is convenient, and all the daily necessities are provided. You can find anything you can imagine, from seasonings to pots, pans, and utensils. The stay was excellent!"

The Lakes Motel
9.0 (57 reviews)

The Lakes Motel ★★★★

📍 10 MacKenzie Drive, Twizel

"The lakes motel is a good base to travel to Mt Cook and Lake Tekapo, etc. motel is very clean. Housekeeping did a great job. Pots and pans look new. Cutleries are cleaned. There are food trucks just next to the motel. Parking is free. Will recommend."

Mountain Chalets Motel
8.4 (253 reviews)

Mountain Chalets Motel ★★★

📍 12 Wairepo Road, Twizel

"This hotel is conveniently located right by the highway, which is great for self-drivers. There's a gas station, supermarket, and restaurants just outside. They did email me to cancel my booking right before check-in, but thankfully, after contacting Ctrip, I was able to check in smoothly. The hotel environment is quite nice, and you can see the stars at night. The room facilities are pretty basic, but everything you need is there. It's perfectly acceptable for self-driving travelers who aren't too picky."

Distinction Mackenzie Country Hotel
8.0 (63 reviews)

Distinction Mackenzie Country Hotel ★★★★

📍 MacKenzie Country Hotel, Cnr Ostler &, Wairepo Road, Twizel

"It's in the middle of Wanaka, Mount Cook, and Tekapo, but it's really a small village. The main focus is cost-effective for just one night's sleep. If your trip to Mount Cook is tiring, you can choose to rest here. But in fact, if you spend an extra hour, you can stay in Wanaka or Tekapo, two more lively places in the south and north. There are precautions written in Chinese on the hotel bathroom⚠️. Don’t get the carpet wet in the rain. If you get wet, you will be fined 200 NZD..."

Lake Ruataniwha Holiday Park
8.6 (69 reviews)

Lake Ruataniwha Holiday Park ★★★

📍 53 Freda Du Faur Avenue, Twizel

"The park is huge and very disorganised. The staff at the reception was very friendly and nice and the check-in was quick. When we arrived to our cabin the heater was on which made it nice and comfy. The cabin we got had 4 beds for 5 people (e.g. parents and 3 kids), but they all bunk beds and very very old. We had to split and sleep on separete beds as during every breath you take the bed is shaking heavily which intterupts the sleep of another person, especially if they are on a bed above/below you. That's actually very sad, considering that paid for the cabin same amount of money as we could've rent airbnb at Fairlee, but we wanted to try this holiday park specifically. All beds had a set of a clean sheets and towels, even though on couple of them I found stains (that are probably iremovable). The blanket we had on the master bed had cigarrete burned holes (or similar). The floor in the cabin was very very dirty, which made it pretty disgusting to walk on. We also had a TV that we didn't know how to turn on and a small freezer. The cabin itself as pretty comfy except for the dirty floor and dirty ceiling full of died insects. When I walked to take a shower I met about 4 girls that were checking the shower temperature, cause apperantely for couple of hours there was no hot water ONLY in the women section. Men's section in the same block had it. So we waiting, nothing happend and we all (5 women) had to walk all around the park looking for other shower blocks. Because it was past 6 and it's winter time, it was dark and for some reason the park doesnt have any outdoor lights. So I got lost on my way back and had to call my bf to meet me, because this place is like an ant nest - impossible to get through especially during the night time. With this girls we found another shower block that only had 1 single shower and we all had to wait in line. Btw the non working one had 4 showers, which is still very little, considering amount of people staying in the park. The shower and toilets looked very dirty and unmaintaited. The entry to the park had a code for cars that also stopped working, so at some point they just opened it for everyone to pass. So I wouldn't say that it worth to stay there for the money we paid."

Dusky's Hidden Gem - a Private Sanctuary in the majestic Mackenzie country ★★★

📍 Twizel

"What's interesting is that the key is kept in a small box and requires a combination lock. The landlord will tell you the combination lock password before you check in; he will send it to you via email."

Alps Motel Apartments
9.5 (106 reviews)

Alps Motel Apartments ★★★

📍 17 Ruataniwha Road, Twizel

"The room was clean and tidy, and the facilities were new. There's no designated parking, just an open space, which meant we couldn't park right outside our room as it was at the back of the building. We had to drag our luggage around, and the large glass doors offered a bit less privacy. Overall, though, I'm quite satisfied."

Twizel Cottages
9.4 (170 reviews)

Twizel Cottages ★★★★

📍 2 Irishman Drive, Twizel

"The location is great, with a large courtyard. Check-in was convenient. Cleanliness: The bathroom was a bit small, but the water was large and comfortable. Environment: Beautiful"

The Lakes Motel ★★★★
"The room was a bit small but very new. There was still a slight smell of renovation, though. Across the road, there's a small hospital and a fire station. Sometimes at night, a helicopter brings patients to the hospital, which causes a brief bit of noise."

"This is a guesthouse with two rooms, a living room, a dining room, and a kitchen. There are two small supermarkets nearby, making it convenient to cook your own meals. It also has a washing machine and an outdoor area for drying clothes. It's a good place to stay before heading to Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park."
