The hotel is brand new, even can smell the painting of the furniture. Staff are very responsive for the condition of the room. They spent time to solve the issue for us is the air conditioning. They finally made it work for us! We really appreciate it.

Stayed Feb 2025. We were pleasantly surprised by this property. The room we stayed in - no.2 - had been recently renovated and the quality of the furnishings was better that some of the 4 star hotels we stayed in. The bathroom was large with a large shower area. The kitchen provided a microwave, small hob and a fridge as well as kettle and coffee machine. There is a laundry with washer and dryer. Recommend this property as a good base for travelling around the area.

The updated room was clean, spacious, and comfortable. Check-in was a breeze and appreciated the dinner recommendations. We enjoyed sitting outside under the stars at the table & chairs provided. When we're back in Twizel, we would stay here again!

Giving motels a great name

This motel gives motels a good name. Very clean, comfortable, with parking adjacent to your motel unit. Warren at the front desk is both friendly and super helpful. He rearranged our following days plans with great ideas, and we were happy with the result. Great place to stay!

Clean, spacious, and friendly staff

Super friendly staff, easy check-in (also offered a bottle of milk for tea), and the room was spacious! Large living area with lots of seating, great bathroom, plenty of space in the kitchen, and separate bedroom. Check-out was easy as well. Great location for accessing Aoraki Mount Cook National Park.

What looks like an old motel from the outside first impressions turns out pretty damn good inside. I had a one bedroom apartment and was really ok inside. Had everything you needed. No oven but a double hob . Plenty of pop up eateries just on the other side each evening and also coffee vans in the morning.
