    Undoubtedly the best accommodation of my trip”

    Absolutely loved our stay at Aoraki Court Motel. The motel is conveniently located, very clean, spacious, has self-catering facilities, stunning views, and priced reasonably. I’d choose this over Hermitage without hesitation. We had been on the tail end of our 17-day travel in the South Island of NZ, and have had our fair share of stay in NZ’s motels and we absolutely loved Aoraki Court Motel. We were in Unit 20 and are so grateful for being allocated that Unit which offered such stunning views of the mountain. We could even stargaze at our balcony when dark. Loved it! Thanks, all at Aoraki Court Motel!

    A wonderful stay at Aoraki Court Motel”

    We had stayed for four nights in a studio spa room which is clean and spacious. The room is well-equipped with cooking utensils. There is a microwave oven and an electric stove. You can cook your meals provided that your food will not leave any odour. There are also some cafes and restaurants in the vicinity. There are also some walking trails nearby.

    Great location, facilities and view”

    Great clean room and new construction with kitchenette with stove top, microwave and fridge. Dining options are limited in the area so it's a good idea to stock up. The pictures and views look amazing in the pictures ... You would think it would hard for me to say I still think this does not do the view justice but it does not. Probably the best view in a mountain setting we've ever had.

    Hosts were very friendly and helpful in pointing out the best tracks and the best places to grab food. Despite not having any restaurants in their facility, they easily outshine any other hotels in the area, especially if you get rooms with views of the mountains. Had a duck visit our balcony, so that's a plus.
