Top Mount John Observatory Hotel Reviews
Galaxy Boutique Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Room was spacious! Room design was very modern. The cool thing was the stargazing skylight. There was a slope or ramp to go up the 2nd level rooms so totally easy and effortless. THe large window overlooking the lake and the mountain range was so nice. We could see the sunrise from our bed and sunset colours on the mountains while sipping coffee at the table too. Room came with a bathtub but there was no bubble bath soap to use. Anyways no time as we went stargazing till late. Just 5min drive to Church of Good Shepard. It's the only hotel that provided toiletries including toothbrushes, disposable slippers, shower cap, etc. Minibar had payable items for convenience at reasonable prices. The in-room breakfast was superb. Many options to choose from and they were flexible to change some of the items. Near a petting zoo and we stopped there to watch and take some photos in the morning before driving off. Location is good. We voted this the second best hotel of the 7 we stayed in our NZ trip. The only down thing was the shallow sink and it was also a bit stuck. So tended to splash out water onto the sink countertop."
Lakes Edge Lodge
8/10 Good
"V clean, but a bit too sparse for my liking. Cabin would benefit considerably from small additional touches. Did not have basic facilities like a bed side table or even a chair to sit in. Maybe even a bit of artwork?"
Lakes Edge Holiday Park
8/10 Good
"Upgrade with minimal fuss and the heaters were on when entered. We really appreciated that."

Mackenzie Apartments & Suites
10/10 Excellent
"nice place"
Grand Suites Lake Tekapo
8/10 Good
"Located by Lake Tekapo, within 3 min drive to The Church of the Good Shepherd & easy access to local shops and restaurants. The rooms are well proportioned with kitchenette, bathroom and in our case, balcony looking toward Mt John. The reception isn’t staffed 24/7 but near checkin time (3pm). Staff were very conscious to advise us to read the in-room directory, which we wished we had, especially as it advised guests of the air raid siren, located across the spill way on the fire station to alert the local volunteers of an emergency, and not impending disaster. All in all, apart from the air raid siren, it was a good stay."
Peppers Bluewater Resort
8/10 Good
"Clean, modern and spacious room. Very comfortable stay"
The Huts at Lakes Edge
10/10 Excellent
