The hotel is in a fantastic location. The view of the lake is ideal. The staff were very helpful and the restaurant is top notch. We stayed one night after visiting Milford Sound. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. We would recommend this hotel to anyone who needs a place in the area.

The room and main building are a bit dated. However everything worked and the bed and shower were both very good. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The restaurant had an excellent view of the lake and the staff were very helpful. The food was good but the wine selection wasn’t that good

Hotel was in a great location. Beds were comfortable, staff were incredibly helpful. The room was hot when we arrived. There was a fan that was helpful. WiFi was terrible, constantly kicking us off the network. The breakfast wasn’t very good for the money.
