Almost the best view”

Stayed in Deluxe Lake View room for the first visit to Lake Tekapo. The view was good but not the best. The hotel property is located on a hill which overlooks the lake and whatever buildings are in front of the lake, so our room was overlooking the same thing. It was beautiful to see the sunrise and having coffee on the porch though. If the lake view room is almost the same price at mountain view, I will pay for lake view again, otherwise mountain view should be as spectacular. Love the location. It is across the street to convenience store, all restaurants, and stargazing tour operators. The room is equipped with sport channels. We were very comfortable in the room and will recommend to anyone.

Exceptional”

Small bedrooms but the kitchen, dining and living room area made up for this. Very spacious with great views - unfortunately we didn’t get to enjoy these as we only stayed for one night.

Nice place!”

The studio had the bedroom and bathroom downstairs and a large living and kitchen area upstairs. It was our honeymoon and we were delighted to see that the staff had left us a cheese platter in the fridge wishing us a happy honeymoon. They were actually the only hotel to do so despite informing all of them that it was our honeymoon. The upstairs area also had an outside balcony with chairs which my husband and I enjoyed in the evening with the extra blankets provided. I really liked the toiletries too! The breakfast buffet was ok...laid out awkwardly though! Overall really nice facilities and nice stay!

Very spacious 2 bedroom lake view villa”

The 2-storey villa was giant, having 5 sofa in the living room! Spectacular view from balcony, living room and bedrooms. Nice shower and bathroom. The kitchen was nice and had everything we need. Most hotel rooms had car parking right behind the room door except 1 or 2 which were at the outskirts of the hotel vicinity, like ours, but accessable with just a few steps. The only downside was only 1 toilet on the ground floor and our villa not ready until 5pm on our check in day.

Lovely view of Lake Tekapo”

Pepper Bluewater is aptly named if you get a lake-front unit like the one we get. We get a unit that was facing Lake Tekapo and the view is lovely. It is next to the interstate although the vehicle noise is not significant to disrupt rest. The view it self makes it worth it. The property is lovely and very nicely designed. We love this as much as Peppers Clearwater up at Christchurch. This is developing to be our favourite brand in NZ! However, do note check if there is any units that are wheelchair access. We had to lug bags up a narrow flight of stairs and we noticed that the level one units also requires a flight of stairs down from the carpark. Carpark is free but appears to be limited. We were lucky to get one very close to our unit. Others may have to park a walk a short distance.

Thank you for the lovely complimentary upgrade to a one-bedroom unit”

The one-bedroom unit was spacious and had a kitchen with all needed facilities. Had a bathtub too, really enjoyed it :)

GREAT STAY”

The unit is huge and have great kitchen facilities, living area, dining area. Love to stay.

Very comfortable stay and stunning view from hotel room!”

We truly enjoyed our one night stay here. Our room was upgraded from standard to deluxe room for free and they even prepared a free cheese platter for us in the room for our honeymoon trip. Thank you so much for that.The room is clean and very warm. You have everything that you needed. Will definitely come back again!

Helpful and Caring staffs”

Room is clean, facilities / kitchen tools are great. During my stay, I was injured and sent to Hospital in Timaru (2-hour drive). When I was discharged from the hospital, I was basically stuck at Timaru because there is no direct transportation back to Tekapo. Hotel Front Office Manager was helpful and managed to arrange a pickup car (charged ofcoz.) for us from Timaru to Tekapo. Really appreciate the help.

Great hotel, just that, the room is tiny”

The room is very small, and we couldn’t open both our suitcases at the same time. Location is great, you could walk to the lake and The Church of Good Shepherd. We even tried capturing the Milky Way pictures.

expensive stay for not a very good view would recommend if price was lower”

my stay was average, not great for the price we paid. we had a short 1 day stay here so that we would do star gazing and horse trekking for that day itself. we expected to stay in a room with nicer view for the price of over $300nzd per night, however our room faced other resorts and we could only see the hilly areas nearby but not the lake at all. good thing was that the place was huge, 2 floors, with tv and dining area upstairs, i would have preferred or the tv to be downstairs at the sleeping area, so that we can laze on the bed, sofa were also dirty with greyish stains. kitchen was great but with a malfunctioning microwave which we had to unplug and re-plug to use. phone couldnt be used when we wanted to call front desk for help. it just kept beeping away or it would just go silent when we tried again. we also couldnt find the bin! we had to search high and low, open all the kitchen cabinets and finally found 1 small bin that wasnt enough. water temp was also inconsistent

The best accommodation in Queenstown”

Booked the villa upon recommendation of friends. Indeed it’s a great place to stay in Queenstown if you are travelling with extended family. There are 3 bedrooms on 2nd floor and a large living room + open kitchen on ground floor. Outdoor patio is huge and you can enjoy the amazing lake view. We stayed 3 nights and used the fireplace everyday - it’s a wonderful touch for a relaxing holiday. There is a nice walking trail to go down the hill if you wish. Overall we love it very much and kids rank it as the number 1 accommodation in our 2 weeks trip.

Excellent resort apartment, exceeded expectations”

The photos of this resort on Agoda focus on external facilities, and do not show how spacious the 2 bedroom suite actually is. The bedrooms are clean, and the space of the living, dining and patio exceeded my expectations. The kitchenware was well stocked, new and clean. The living area has a large TV with ample entertainment channels. Lake Tekapo village is nearby, merely minutes drive away and very convenient. We also had the buffet breakfast and it had adequate variety and worth the promo price we paid for.

A View that you will never forget”

The place we stay Feels POSHED!!! Classy and elegant, kind and friendly staff all around the place ready for you. But what was the best is that the location of the hotel is just right a distance away from Lake Tekapo and if you are the person that like timelapse and such, this is a good place, to view the lake and also mountains and seeing mt john in a whole. The place is just 5mins walk away from the heart of all the food and supermarkets and such Super Convenient. Lastly the apartment itself, we are amazed as its 2 stories with 2 bedroom a super huge living room with cooking facility and a big balcony (: The place is super comfy and things used are good! Washing cooking and such all available in the apartment itself.

The hotel is good and we enjoy the view of the house”

The location is good and the resort is large, we booked the 2 rooms apartment. However the dish washing mashine seems a bit smelly and when we cooked there is no basic material like salt pepper... also for the LG washing machine, the clothes is not dry even we try to dry it over an hour... for the wifi it is limited and super less , it just like do not have wifi Breakfast do not have much choice but we still pay for that.

Nice view”

The room is nice and clean with good supply of kitchen utensils including washing machine. And coffee maker. The service was good and we got most of the information from the counter. Small town equipped with all necessities and all of them are quite close.

Cozy & Clean Apartment”

Comfy & nice place to stay. A stone's throw away from village centre. 15 mins drive to Mt John observatory which is a must to visit. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here.

Get at least the one bedroom apartment”

We were originally scheduled for the "hotel" room which is microscopic. We upgraded for $70 more a night to the apartment. Definitely worth it - 2 stories with a wonderful kitchen, dining area, and living space on second floor.

Beautiful views of Lake Tekapo in a fantastic location ”

Beautiful property and beautiful room! Our room overlooked lake tekapo and the resort was a short walk or drive from the "city" and tourist sights (i.e church of the good shephard). The resort grounds are beautifully maintained as well.

nice place , service is super good”

super big Stopped here over night on the way to Seattle. The hotel smells fresh and clean. The room was spotless and fresh also,perfect stay
