The dorm rooms were 6 people to one room and the bunk beds were not the greatest. The hotel rooms seemed really nice with a good view of the lake.

Not the best condition place, but it’s a really small town so take that into account. It’s got a prime position right in front of the lake and within a short walk to the Church of the Good Sheppard. Very very friendly service!!

Just remember to book a room on the ground floor as there is a long flight of stairs to the 2nd floor rooms! Free weight training definitely ;)

Really nice views of the lake and it's just a short walk away from pretty much everything. The renovated bathroom is super nice and the carpark is really handy being just outside the door.

I didn't stay in the motel. We had a one-day trip to tekapo. Wonderful view there in the late winter.

Very comfortable and cosy room. We stayed in the Upstairs Studio in winter and the room was not warm enough. There is a heater in the room and bed heaters as well. Shower pressure was good enough and even hair conditioner was provided! Well equipped with clean utensils and cutleries and a microwave.

Amazing motel in an amazing beautiful area. Ian was a wonderful and friendly host who helped us get sorted and gave some tips on the area. The motel is slightly hidden behind some other buildings but I was also looking for it in the dark

Owner unnecessarily RUDE!
Travelling through with friends - both us couples in our late 30's/early 40's so mature couples. We had a bite to eat at the cafe next door with the hotel shares a lane or driveway with. My partner had gone into the cafe to use the facility before departing so the 3 of us were waiting outside in the laneway. My friends saw a pretty wooden stairway and wanted to take a picture. A women then came out of the sliding door across the lane and barked at us, zero manners and said "you can't be on there, people are staying in the motel. We all turned around as we were confused. (firstly at where the voice was coming from and then, also at how rude she was. Then she said, "don't look at me like that". Again we were all shocked and confused. Fair enough, this is a motel so we got off the stairs immediately. (but it's not clear that it's part of the hotel as it's not joined and is across the lane) We were still waiting for my partner before heading back to the car and I saw another couple (not in our group) sit on the wooden stairs. A man then came out and also rudely told them and us that we're not allowed to even be in this area. Again, super confused. He said we're not allowed to stand here or walk through here. (the cafe tables were about 20 feet away and it's a logical way to walk back to the car park.) He then said we have to move as we're on private property. I advised him that they could have been polite and there was no need to be so non-human. There is no sign that says we're not allowed to stand or walk through there as Tekapo is a very touristy spot. i can imagine they have to tell people many times a day that they are not allowed to stand or walk there which is quite shocking.
If you don't like people, or at the very least, if you can't attempt to be friendly; then maybe having a motel in the center of a busy tourist town isn't the right career path for you!!!response / report this review -

Quiet the night we stayed here, but still fairly full. All you could ever need in a room.

Lovely room with view of the lake. Room was clean and had good facilities. Heating/air conditioning excellent shower . Microwave,fridge ,kettle etc. Close to restaurants and shops. 200m from Lake and only a short walk to the Church of the Good Shepherd. Lovely place for star gazing when the sky is clear.
