Haka House Lake Tekapo is an ideal base for exploring the area such as the Church of the Good Shepherd, Dark sky project and stargazing. A highly desirable location for visiting Lake Tekapo and watching the sunset. Modern facilities with a clean, comfortable, and cozy feel. Convenient for viewing the night sky although tiny sleep spaces are more of a functional stay in a high-demand area. I splurged a bit on this accommodation due to its proximity to the beauty of nature. There are no regrets.

A perfect experience! The lobby is beautiful, and the beds and towels are spotless. The location is excellent too. Best of all, I met some wonderful people, which is so rare in a hostel.

The location is fantastic, right by Lake Tekapo. You just cross a big lawn and you're at the lake, and the Church of the Good Shepherd is just a short walk over the bridge! The room, however, was extremely small; I couldn't even fully open my 28-inch suitcase. But for one night as a stopover, it's perfectly fine.

1. Prime location, with Great Lake view in front, 200m walk from local supermarket; 2. The facilities are good but also very horrible, really big kitchen and common room for guests to cook and eat, outdoor seats with BBQ setting, all kinds of cooking stuff, etc. but shower on the 1st floor is block and the entire toilet is flooded!!!! The basin is blocked also!!!! Flushing of Toilet sometimes doesn’t work, there is hairdryer; 3. I quite like the room, clean and quiet, there is a small light, usb port, and small cabin and curtain on the bed, 2 lockers for each guest, bed is very comfortable;

The accommodation situated right in front of Lake Tekapo. Walking distance to lupins field, Church of the Good Shepherd, stargazing tours’ pickup points, grocery stores and restaurants. Short drive to Mt John summit & Tekapo Springs (both walkable from accommodation as well if you are up for some long walk :))

I think this hotel is fantastic! The location is superb; step out the back door and you're greeted with stunning scenery, and it's within walking distance of the Church of the Good Shepherd. They have shared kitchen and bathroom facilities, which are clean and hygienic, and the front desk offers Chinese language service.
