It's about a three to five-minute walk to the lake, very close. There's also a large supermarket right next door, which is super convenient. It's a nice motel. Wanaka is absolutely beautiful!!!

The hotel's location is excellent, right next to a supermarket and very close to Lake Wanaka. The rooms have a kitchen, which is great for cooking simple meals, and there's plenty of parking. My only complaint is that they don't provide slippers or toiletries.

At first glance, the place seems lovely and inviting. However, on closer inspection, there are quite a few maintenance issues that need attention. Several lights weren’t working (only about 2 out of 5), the carpet wasn’t as clean as it initially appeared, and there was mould in the shower. There are also signs of wear such as plastering around the sink, and the hairdryer made an unhealthy noise when used. The toilet bolts were loose, which was concerning. The bathroom lacks an extractor fan, so it becomes very steamy. The shower head is quite small with low pressure. While there is an outdoor area, it doesn’t offer much privacy as the motel is right on the road. Parking is available on-site, which is a plus, but there are no laundry facilities. There is a makeshift kitchenette with a toaster, microwave, kettle, fridge, and basic cutlery and crockery. However, it’s not suitable for cooking proper meals, and the lack of a sink makes washing up or even filling the kettle inconvenient. On the positive side, the location is excellent—right next to a New World supermarket and very central. Overall, the place is reasonably clean, tidy, and comfortable, but it would benefit from some maintenance.

The hotel staff were very welcoming and the kitchen was fully equipped, allowing us to cook a delicious dinner. The hotel is just a few minutes' walk from the bus stop, and we also enjoyed an incredibly beautiful starry sky at a nearby car park 😊

The room's cleanliness was acceptable, and the staff were quite friendly. However, the overall environment and facilities were really poor. There were spiderwebs everywhere near the stairs, and occasionally even spiders crawling around! The room door lock was very flimsy and offered no soundproofing whatsoever; I could hear people talking loudly next door. Plus, there was no cold water at all in the mornings. I do not recommend staying here.

We stayed here for 2 nights, but no service of cleaning the room although we asked for. The room is small for three people. There are only soap, no shampoo. The parking is not enough, so we have to park outside.

Close to supermarket, eateries and the lake. Basic night stays after you enjoy yourself outdoors all day long.
