Our stay was absolutely perfect. The stunning scenery speaks for itself; it felt like living inside a postcard. What truly elevated the experience was the hotel's exceptional service: the staff were always smiling and greeted us proactively, housekeeping was meticulous, and any issues we had were resolved quickly. This attention to detail and thoughtful service, combined with the enchanting environment, significantly enhanced our overall happiness during the stay. Highly recommended.

The town is small but conveniently located. The bedroom is on the first floor, and you can do some light cooking in the living room on the second floor.

The room I received was vastly different from what was shown on Trip.com. I booked a deluxe lake view room, and the actual room looked like picture 1, while Trip.com showed picture 2. Excuse me? My "deluxe lake view room" only offered a view of a pond, and I had to go out onto the balcony to even catch a glimpse of the lake. I don't understand. I even went to the front desk to confirm if I had been given the wrong room, and the hotel insisted it was correct. So, I'm not sure if this is a Trip.com issue or a hotel issue. Secondly, the service was really subpar. Considering this is an Accor property, it was the worst service I've experienced in New Zealand. The front desk staff were very cold. The Wi-Fi password provided in the room was incorrect; I tried connecting for ages without success. When I called to inquire, they told me I had to go to the front desk myself. Speechless.

Room is too small. No management of car parking. Will not book this hotel again. Room rate is high but can’t provide any service.

The hygiene is acceptable, and the bedding is clean. However, some facilities are a bit broken. It's strange that every room has air conditioning, but the AC doesn't provide heat, and the heaters themselves seem to have some issues.

Facing directly onto Lake Tekapo, and conveniently located across from a large supermarket and a shopping street, it's also within walking distance of the Church of the Good Shepherd. The location is absolutely fantastic. Staying in the villa was so enjoyable! The decor is lovely, facilities are comprehensive, and the shower is wonderful. The kitchen is especially well-equipped. I wish I could stay for a month, just gazing at the lake every day and living here. In the evening, you can even stargaze right from the garden.

Booked for two days, and the view from the room was amazing. The hotel has a great location, with supermarkets and restaurants conveniently nearby. Cutlery was also provided in the room. We even took a helicopter tour to see the beautiful scenery of Mount Cook from above.

The hotel is right by Lake Tekapo, making it super convenient to get around. The space is generous, with a comfortable bedroom downstairs and an open-plan living room and kitchen upstairs. The whole place is bright and the furnishings are quite new. Plus, you can cook your own meals as the kitchen is fully equipped.
