This is a very basic motel, everything was clean and the people at the reception were very nice and helpful, but the mattress was very uncomfortable and all the room very dark and unappealing.

Stay here

It was great- the owners are lovely and incredibly accommodating and helpful. The rooms are well appointed and comfortable. The location was excellent for access to Franz Josef activities and restaurants. It’s a five minute walk to the town center, if that. Highly recommend a stay here.

Good choice in FJ

Nice place to stay. Kitchen is well-equipped but a little bit small (but still suitable to cook a simple dinner). Premise is nice, owners are very nice as well.

Great location right across the street from the glacier helicopter departure point. Hot tubs were right next door. Super clean and modern property. Friendly staff that gave us some great recommendations.
