Find Hotels in Lake Tekapo, New Zealand

We booked the whole apartment option and the house was fantastic. The cookery and beddings were all good. But I still have to point out a few things to improve: 1. At this price range, complimentary wifi with 2 GB bandwidth limit seems a bit penny-pinching. 2. The under-stove oven worked fine but as we preheated it the foul odor from previous cooking fumed the whole living room. I think they should ask the clients while checking out whether they use the oven and arrange cleaning accordingly. 3. The dish washer was absolutely helpful and yet the complimentary cleaner fluid/powder only came with 2 use per stay I suppose. If frequent cooking is to be expected, be careful with the dishes. Despite several things stated above, we all quite enjoyed the stay at the Mantra Lake Tekapo Hotel. I was able to enjoy the starry night with a glass of wine in the backyard, which is a fantastic experience you should definitely try. Cheers!

At Lake Tekapo where everything costs so much, this 2 bedroom cabin was a very good find. Its view was awesome though there was some road works going on, and is equipped with simple pots and pans, oven, salt and pepper for your simple cooking needs. The bathroom is surprising very big, warm and spotless. Highly recommend this place that is adequate for 5! The location is slightly off the main tourist area but a little 5-15min wall is actually a plus in this lovely lake area.

We stayed at Pukeko Palace (3 bedroom house), the house interior design is so beautiful and modern. The kitchen is perfect, living hall is spacious, bedrooms are very cozy. They provide washing powder, washing machine and clothes dryer. The location is near the historic Good Shepherd Church, the Lake Tekapo and the mini town. In the town, got a Tekapo 4 square supermarket, things are quite cheap. Also has a good Japanese Restaurant (Kohan Japanese Restaurant) and good souvenir shop (Aotea Gifts).

The choice of staying in Lake Tekapo is very limited. This hotel is one of the hotel worth choose. 1. Room rate is reasonable in Lake Tekapo. Similar rate you can only choose backpacker hostal. 2. Location also good, which locates in the center of the Lake Tekapo Village. can easily access to Good Shepherd Church and the Lake within 15 mins walk. 3. Room Facilities is also good, and free spa is available in the hotel as well. If you think of staying in Lake Tekapo, this hotel should be good to choose

Our room was spacious and complete with the necessary amenities. It’s located right at the center of the town & all the eateries and supermarket were at walking distance. The view of the lake from our room was just stunning. In addition, the room was well maintained and the bed was comfortable. Unfortunately there was a construction of the new YHA in front of the Motel, not sure if the lake view would be obstructed in the future; likely not. Overall it was a great stay at Tekapo and we highly recommend this Motel.

Might overshot the place but driving in New Zealand town is within 30-50 so can find it with ease. They do have rice cooker and all the appliances plus cutleries. Our house do not include the skylight whereby you can open and view the stars which is disappointment. It has a small patio but we cant simply view the stars from outside as it very cold. Most of toiletries are included except toothbrus and tooth paste but we brought along our own shower gel, shampoos and conditioner. It is situated near the Church of shepherd. Short drive to a small town. Heater in first room not that good as unable to cover lower part of body but can use the thick blanket for cover. Rate is not cheap and the view from living room to Lake Tekapo with the snow mountain is stunning. You can view from the tv with youtube and it comes with a Google to on the music. Place is clean though.

The suite is the last of a row of 4~5 apartment sitting on the edge of a small hill overlooking the Lake Tekapo, about 10~15minutes walk away from the city center but 3minutes drive only so if you are driving should post no problem. The kitchenette is fill to the brim with tools and spices so you can cook at home with no problem, the apartment is warm and the bedroom design is fun (it opens up like a barn inside the room), the patio opens up on a shared lawn but with just enough privacy not to be pry into without sacrificing the view. It even has candle lights and matches if you are looking for a romantic dinner in the room. The caretaker is a young lady who is informative and is patient (we were 2 hours late due to bad weather driving up to Lake Tekapo but she was still very considerate when we arrived and she brief us at 9pm!) Only complain I can think of is the suite is sitting a little back of the others so the lawn is partially blocked by next door Will definitely recommend!

I went to lake tekapo to view beautiful thousands of stars other than lake Tekapo itself. This hotel is quite close to Church of the Good Shepherd by walk within 5 minutes. And you can go to office of Eart I h & Sky / village center by walk within 5 minutes. the room was very cleand and wide enough for solo traveler. I recommend to couples or family to stay here. Ms. Amina helped me to keep my baggage after I chekced out out and took me to bus stop by her drive. I thanked her kind support to carry my baggage to the bus stop. I could catch the Intercity bus to Queenstown in time. I want to stay this hotel again.

Everything is excellent except that it's quite expensive and there is no heater for the bathroom...it's too cold in winter when using the bathroom. And will need to carry your luggage , walk through some steps on a short path to the entrance of the house The house is cozy, everything is new, fully equipped kitchen. A nice balcony with view of Lake Tekapo and for stargazing. Very near to the Church of Good Shepard . You might find a lot of bunnies around the house in the middle of the night.

I had the best stay ever. The apartment was modern, spacious, and most importantly, warm! We could see the night sky on the bed from the window, kitchen and bathroom amenities complete. Modern dishwasher and washing machine, Netflix and WiFi! Best of all was the service, going out of her was to make our stay wonderful in Tekapo. 100% recommend. Thank you so much！

Three Rivers Lodge is in a quiet location slightly out of town. Our room was well-appointed and very comfortable with lovely views over Lake Tekapo. Our hosts were extremely friendly and welcoming and provided a delicious breakfast and excellent conversation. They provided recommendations on restaurants for dinner and places to visit. We had a nice walk along the lake shore to the town for dinner but followed the footpath beside the road on our way back. The return walk was dark because Lake Tekapo is in the Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve and street lighting is all low level However, this does mean that views of the stars are excellent on a clear night.

Typically, we stay at 4-5 star, large chain resorts but we were tremendously pleased with the comfort and charm of of Tekapo Heights. Sam was very polite, thoughtful, and made good recommendations. Having come from a disappointing and expensive hotel the night before in another NZ city, the attention to detail in our room was very much appreciated. Everything ran so smoothly and the bed was so cozy and comfortable! It was the best of the last 6 hotels on our stay. Though we weren’t right on the lake, we really enjoyed spending the evening on the back patio

Had a wonderful stay here at Majestic View. Location online is misleading as the address stated is actually the administrative office. Have to drive up further higher to reach the house. Took us a while to find the house, it’s actually inside Manning Place, further up in Lochinver Avenue. Despite the difficulties in locating the house, the entire place is huge, clean and perfect for big families. There’s a little porch for BBQ & star gazing. Toilet is very clean, spacious and comes with a heater so you feel all warm and toasty the moment you step out of shower. Highly recommend for big families for greater value.

It wasn’t on my plan to stay here. I urgently booked this place since I missed my bus, so I was a little frustrated but it turned into a good fortune cause the place was really stunning! The owner of the place was so friendly, kind and welcomed me. There were cute snacks for me, the room was more than perfect and the lake view from windows was spectacularly beautiful. The bathroom was so clean, there was even a heater in the bathroom so I didn’t need to be frozen after taking a shower. The bed was so comfy and there were every facilities that I needed. I was just lying in a huge cozy bed and gazing the shining lake until sun went down. It was so peaceful and relaxed one night. And after checking out I realised that I left my jacket at there, so I was about to go back to bring my jacket. It was really embarrassing for me since I was carrying more than 20kg bags at that moment. But so thankfully, the owner brought my jacket by a car to where I was! It was really considerate kindness! I want to say “Thank you so much!” to him again. It was a totally warm-hearted experience.
