Very disappointed with the accommodation rooms. For a supposed 4-star hotel to accommodate in nothing more than a 2-star roadside motel was a bit disappointing. On check-in we were told that our breakfast was included, to then presenting ourselves at the restaurant to be then told that we would need to pay for our breakfast. Even after the duty manager was involved and recognized that it was a clerical error on their part, they still insisted we pay for the breakfast. We declined and left! Don't think I will be staying at this establishment again or recommending to any friends or colleagues.

You can see the glacier right from this hotel! We walked out and the glacier was right there. The staff is excellent and the ambience is perfect.

I think it's one of the best legit hotel in Franz Josef. Staff are so nice. I had to cancel 1 night of my stay, as my main activity (the glacier hike) got cancelled due to bad weather. Hotel was kind enough to accommodate and refund me 1 night. Its definitely a nice place to stay.

It's a very resort-style hotel. The breakfast is very good. I especially like the cinnamon toast and sweet kiwi fruit.

The hotel is nice, and the price is relatively expensive. Although there are not many types of breakfast, the quality and taste are good. It rained on the day of arrival, and the next day was sunny and cloudy. I went to the surrounding trails and walked around. There was not much snow on the top of Joseph Glacier. I will go to see Fox Glacier at the next stop.
