We stayed at the aspen court motel during a whistle stop tour of the west coast. I wish we had had time to stay here for longer. This motel was by far the best we have stayed in. Extremely clean, very comfortable and had a luxurious feel to it. Ours was very quiet and we instantly felt relaxed.

Superb place to stay. Staff exceptionally helpful and accommodation one of the best that we've had in three weeks of travelling. Franz Josef is a lovely town in its own right, with the glacier experience an amazing extra. We loved this place.

Great place to stay for an outdoor holday but pack your waterproof .
The drive from Christchurch is quite an arduous five hours on mountain roads but it is worth the effort
