Excellent location, right by the departure points for various excursions and activities, with a view onto the lake.
Kerri was extremely helpful with suggestions for food and activities, all of which we used and were excellent.
Room had everything we needed and very comfortable too.

Very nice place. Easy to walk to the Main Street with restaurants. Room was smallish but clean, nice and comfortable. Nice seating area with a sofa which is a good touch.
Staff were very helpful and friendly.
Nice and quiet, no noise from neighbours.
Free parking outside your room.

Nice old-school holiday park with everything you would need, and a short walk from restaurants in the centre of town. We were particularly impressed with the staff, who were very understanding when we lost our key, and didn’t charge for a replacement. To top that we left an item in the room, and Jodi kindly had it couriered to another of our ongoing hotels. Great service!

Comfortable and clean lodges opposite the lake. Great location and plenty of helpful suggestions given by the owner for trips, restaurants etc. Great to have laundry and breakfast available.

A great stop of on our travels, We would definitely return to Shakespeare house! The hosts are extremely friendly & welcoming, and were able to accommodate our slightly later check-in time without a hitch.
Highly recommended!

good clean room with excellent view over the lake. Laundry facilities on site too and easy parking. Great location to explore the area and travel to Fiordland

This was a basic cabin, which was set up with a double and single bed. Would have been a really good value option for a small family. For one person was slightly less of a value option. Felt like a cross between a camping holiday and a cabin as the shower block was communal (seperate facilities for ladies and men though). Kept beautifully clean.
They provided towels and cooking/ eating utiensils if you asked at reception. Would have been a good idea to mention that on check in as you had to...

Receptionist/owner could not have been more helpful. The rooms were a good size, very clean and comfortable. Conveniently located. Very good value for money.

Stayed here 3 nights to explore Fjiordland. The motel was ideally located and easy to find. Clean, Spacious and comfortable room with laundry facilities which we made full use of. The staff were extremely helpful and assisted us with booking a trip to Doubtful Sound. The hotel itself was a 5 minute walk to the centre of town.

We had a Studio with a comfortable bed, a small sofa and small table with two (not particularly comfortable) chairs. Enough room not to trip over suitcases and other bags.
The kitchenette was perfectly good: a fridge with freezer compartment, toaster, kettle, large electric frying pan, microwave and two ring electric hob - great for basic meals.
The en suite shower and toilet room was fine - plenty of hot water.
Parking right outside.
A couple of chairs to sit on the small deck outside.

One of my favourite stays in New Zealand - we booked the chalet for a family of 4 and it was perfect. Quirky upside down house, in a stunning lakeside location. Not the most fancy place but had everything we needed - good cooking facilities etc. great value for money

We thoroughly enjoyed our three night stay here. The room was spacious, very comfortable and well-appointed. The service was excellent and all the staff pleasant and helpful. The location is covenient for shops and restaurants on Main Street and for walking along the lakeside, which is just a two minutes walk away. Excellent buffet breakfast.
