We couldn’t fault this hotel in any way & it was surprisingly affordable, I suspect due to the fact it has only been open an open a few months. Easy to find & easily accessible if driving. We ate at the restaurant which was also very good.

The hotel is in a prime location and is very well priced. We did not expect much given the cost of the room but were pleasantly surprised by the facilities and the free breakfast. Our 2 highlights of this stay however has to be related to the owners, the couple are both such friendly people and make you feel so welcome. We stayed here as we were travelling to stewart island for 3 days after we checked out and they let us leave the car in there car park for the 3 days at no extra cost, this shows how they really do aim to go above and beyond, thank you again for everyone guys!

This place combines a camp site with some buildings with hotel rooms. We stayed in a queen studio which was very clean and comfortable. There were some shared facilities like kitchen and laundry which we found very useful. Walking distance from the lake (less than 3 minutes) and shops and restaurants (5-10 minutes). Bonus points for a cat that walked around the camp site sometimes and even paid us a short visit in our room.

It was very convenient, near the lake and also a short walk (less than 5mins) to the town centre. Property was very clean with a lovely heating lamp in the bathroom. Parking was onsite just outside the apartment, so that was a plus.

Te Anau is a quaint village on the lake with beautiful alpine scenery. Easy to get around by foot. It’s an ideal spot to relax before and/or after travelling to Milford Sound. The downside is that I didn’t stay long enough!

Highlights of Invercargill were the friendly people and good dining. The Transport Museum was outstanding, as was Queens Park. The city itself is quite ugly, treeless and windswept, with few attractive buildings. Good for a short stay or transit stopover.

You don't need to spend money on tours if you don't have it (I never do), as there are plenty of beautiful walks to discover for yourself. Ulva Island is a must, though!!! The bird life is amazing, and even though at home we have plenty of kereru, piwakawaka, bellbirds, the song and sight of these guys over there is next level. Kereru, walking or sitting on the ground, is not seen in cities. Do take sandfly spray as these wee guys are also very friendly 😉

Yummy meals in the local pub bistro, great beach down the road and a well stocked superette ( small supermarket) Funny and slightly rude t shirts and other souvenirs on sale worth a sausage theme! You are close to the start of the humpridge track which is the best of the NZ great walks i have done ( I've done 5 of them)

Quiet little town between Queenstown and Milford Sound.

Quiet little town between Queenstown and Milford Sound. Room rates are very reasonable; and the attached resturant was very good. The lamb shank was excellent! Fun place to hang with the friendly locals. It is a good 3 hour drive to Milford Sound from here (not the 2:15 the GPS will say) so you need to leave extra time if you have a boat tour scheduled. Mossburn is a good place to gas up your car before leaving for Milford Sound or Queenstown. Our room had a large attached bathroom, and the shower had great water pressure. Secure parking located behind the building gave easy access to the rooms. Don't be afraid to go to Milford Sound if it's raining; the waterfalls are even more spectacular!

This is a warm, well-appointed and charming but unpretentious accommodation that suited our needs as 'passing-through" visitors. It was ideally placed in our swing through Southland and Central Otago to catch up with friends in various locations over this region. I should add that we booked here because we had few other options brought about by changes in itinerary that meant we were searching for somewhere suitable with only a day's advance notice! All in all, we were very happy with our choice. We cooked our own meals on perfectly adequate facilities.

The obvious starting point for your Milford Sound experience., Te Anau has the look, feel & scenic beauty of a Canadian Great Lakes Town but all set in Southern New Zealand. Te Anau is surrounded in Alps & beautiful Blue Lakes making the scenery very easy to digest. There's everything you need here in the shape of accommodation, bars/Pubs, restaurants, shopping, supermarkets etc. Chill out for a few days of Te Anau tranquility before taking on the crowds & traffic nonsense of Milford Sound.
