Comfortable motel near Fox Glacier
Room was comfortable with plenty of space for three of us. View of Mt Cook could be seen from the front, but had better going down the road to reflection island. The location is a little further out of town, so we did need to drive 5 minutes for dinner. But the place was comfortable, and would stay their again if in the neighbor hood. Plenty of activites to explore.

Such a fabulous location with a view to Mt Cook and Mt Tasman and the other smaller snomy mountains. Very spacious place with some unique features like a dial with a pin for the shower

Disliked: Amenities
We only booked it because the Expedia listing showed a seasonal pool open 9am-7pm. Imagine our surprise when there was no pool. False advertising should not be tolerated by your company. Shame on the property owners for not caring what we were expecting or even trying to do anything to. Rectify

The place is ok. It feels clean. It may be the farthest motel from town with a little more than a mile. It provides basic bathroom stuff, a towel per person and shampoo. It did not have body washer and other amenities.
