I can't recommend this accommodation highly enough. The staff were friendly and informative, the rooms were very clean and the free muffin on arrival, popcorn, bottled water, coffee machine, and even free delicious homemade soup were such a huge and welcoming surprise. It was a cut way above anywhere else I'd stayed in NZ. I felt looked after. Thank you for a memorable stay. June 2025 Cheryl H Australia

Typical New Zealand motel type of accommodation. Managed by a local family, very clean , cosy, and well maintained. Although small size rooms they are comfortable enough for 2-3 nights. Full facilities offered like kitchen etc PS: Don't park on the street, park inside the premises.

Arrived by bus from Greymouth. Very kind and friendly reception. I got help even with my luggage up the stairs. Scones offered upon checking in. The room was well appointed and very clean. There was partial mountain view from the room. Shower was hot and powerful.

The hospitality was amazing! Perfect spot to stay and coffee was a massive bonus! Joy was fantastic! Thank you for looking after us! The rest of the staff were super friendly as well! It is work in progress from hostel to hotel but it is already starting to pay off. We had everything we needed and more!

Last minute booking, got a great deal. Our room was on the top floor and our view was of mountains and snow. Mattress a bit soft but still comfy, kids happy in the bunks. Bathroom clean and toiletries supplied. Breakfast also part of the room, simple but nice surprise. Kitchen and lounge area spacious and clean. There is a spa, but we didn't use it.

I booked this lodge for my sister and hubby who were visiting from overseas they were pleased with the facilities and their room with ensuite, tv, fridge and would recommend they are retired but enjoyed the other guests company Very close to restaurants and bars

Het is een hostel. De kwaliteit is niet zoals een hotel. Maar de kamers zijn comfortabel en ruim. Alles is heel praktisch opgezet. Ontbijt is eenvoudig op hostel niveau maar vult de maag goed. Kortom verblijf voor een heel leuke prijs in het duren Franz Josef.
