徒歩3分圏内に大型スーパーやお土産ショップ、レストランがあり、また羊飼い小屋へも10分とかからず歩けます。大型の駐車場もすぐ近くにあるのでアクセスが非常に便利でした。 友人と2名でツインベッドの部屋を利用し、部屋自体はそこまで広くないですが、清潔感があり快適です。アメニティも揃っています。夜間外出の際にカードキーが必要ですが、周辺も治安が良く夜中星を観に出歩いても不安はありませんでした。

Clean rooms and comfortable stay. There was a large group of students staying the same night and as a result there were not enough seats to eat dinner. Even the second floor lounge area was full and some had to sit on the ground to eat.

The hotel faces to Lake Tekapo directly. We were able to see the lake and beautiful sky, mountains, extremely brilliant stars from the dawn to midnight from my room. The root was narrow to find the space for suitcases. It was cold inside of the room.
