Hotels with Jacuzzi in Room in Lake Tekapo Village

Location is perfect. Very close to the Church of the Good Shepherd (although we drove there anyway). The jacuzzi pool was lovely. We were not able to stargaze because of the poor weather during our stay, but jumping into the pool when it was snowing was just as comfortable!

Had an amazing stay at Lake Tekapo Cottages. Location is 10/10, a very short walk to the lake and into town over the foot bridge but still feels very peaceful, quiet and nestled away. The cottage was very modern, clean and comfortable. Friendly and helpful staff.

Friendly and helpful service. Cottage was amazing. So warm with every possible convenience. Underfloor heating in bathroom fantastic! Best sleep ever in comfy beds. Quiet and cozy. Very clean. Two ensuites!

Our studio cottage was spacious, clean and very comfortable. The bed was very comfortable. walking distance to shops and lake front. our host was especially helpful and gave us some good tips. One of the best places we stayed on our trip and value for money. The shower pressure was amazing.

Nice, quiet and peaceful place to stay. Comfortable, clean and spacious. Steven is very approachable & friendly. It also has a very nice balcony. Parking is available. The best thing is the location, which is just a 5 mins walk to the famous Church of the Good Shepherd.

Everything was good. The lodge was very clean and nice. It was fun to do a farm tour and pet and feed the animals and the jacuzzi under the stars was amazing. We really enjoyed our stay.

Everything was easy. Property was very easy to find, collected the keys from the owner who explained everything about the property and helped us to choose a place for dinner that night and breakfast the following morning. Property was very well appointed including an external jacuzzi.

We loved the warm wooden decor, the location being so, peaceful and so close to the lake and the main road. The farm for our son to feed the animals was a bonus. We loved the delicious bread and chocolate on arrival and note from the staff. We slept well thanks to the comfy beds. Jacuzzi on an evening to watch the night sky was lovely. All the small details really didnt go unnoticed, including everything being so neat and tidy! Thabk you!

Set above the village of Tekapo, the lodge is in an ideal location for a peaceful escape. Within walking distance to shops , restaurants and The Good Shepherd Church. The views over the lake and the Southern Alps are breathtaking and they can be enjoyed from almost every corner of the lodge. This single storey lodge consists of two bedrooms and one bathroom with lake views from the living and deck area. The open plan lounge features modern décor, a flat screen TV, high speed internet. Double glazed doors open up from the living room to a sheltered outdoor deck where you can soak up the sun and enjoy the view during the day and star gazing at night. The high spec kitchen is equipped with quality appliances, crockery, cutlery and cookware. Washer dryer, dishwasher included. The two bedrooms feature queen sized bed with external bathroom. Ideal for couples or a family with children. All beds are almost new and excellent quality and each bedroom has its own heater. Clean sheets and towels. They have a mini petting zoo and star gazing tour near the lodge as well. Recommending to everyone to stay at least two nights

We stayed at lodge 6, which was beautiful and cosy, with a lovely view of the lake. As my daughter had a zoom meeting, what we really appreciated was the high speed / reliable wifi and quiet surroundings. The rooms were so comfy (loved the electric blanket) and the bathroom was new and spacious! Thank you Sam and team for the excellent service from start to end, you had every detailed covered, from a fresh loaf of bread on arrival, to food for the kids to feed the animals. We had a wonderful stay!

Really cosy place. Fire was all ready to light! Bath tub was amazing. Bed was so comfortable I only woke up once (at 30weeks pregnant that's a miracle!) Body wash & toilet paper ect was nice & quality. Needed to ask host a question prior to going and he responded promptly. Lovely place. Next time for hopefully 2 nights!

everything. best of the best. Comfortable bed and very clean toilet. Heating bed, lovely living room and kitchen . Peaceful surroundings. Easy to check in.

how private it was, extremely spacious and comfortable for a small home. outdoor bath was amazing

Cosy home located in a great spot. This home has everything you need to enjoy your stay and the skylights are an added bonus to be able to view the night sky from the bedroom

Lovely property, very clean, comfortable and warm. Fireplace preset with wood by host and plenty of spare firewood. Good instructions on use.

Large rustic quirky two storey home. Pizza oven in kitchen. Comfortable beds. Close to both Fairlie and Tekapo. Great views. Rural location. Plenty of outside space for children to ride bikes and run around.. Small stream close by. Large Nashi pear tree with ripe fruit.

Amazing house to host a group of friends or family, very spacious and open plan dining lounge area, Easy access to ski fields for winter (purpose of our trip). Great to have 2 bathrooms with showers Pizza oven was the highlight !

Great character, comfortable, perfect to share with friends.

Spacious, old charm with stones outside and timbers inside, 5 rooms good for lots of people. View the milky way (galaxy) right on spot.

Fantastic place. Spacious, lots of bedrooms and bathrooms. Spacious living room, huge yard. Recommend 100%

Everything about this place was perfect. Great location across from bakery, restaurant and grocery. Extremely clean and very good wifi. Hosts were very accommodating and responsive.

Comfortable bed, great shower, clean, parking and tea / coffee / microwave facilities.

There were three adults for one night. The place is quite small; however the bedroom is a decent size, along with the bathroom. The living room is quite tiny but we weren’t truly staying in the unit except to sleep. The place was quiet. Nice deck where we sat outside. Coffee or tea could be made, full fridge, wineglasses, mugs, plates. Very clean. Bathroom had sufficient towels, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Was exactly as described. Could walk to town, but a bit of a hike. Easily located.

The property is in perfect location, close to the shops, tekapo pools and the lake. It was also very clean and it’s amazing how it has both fridge and freezer! :)

Super easy access and check in. Property is in a great location to the town with amazing views all around

We loved absolutely everything about our apartment! Amazing view, beautifully furnished and fitted out. It was a bit of a walk into town for dinner but we were very happy to self cater in this beautiful place. The location was perfect for a walk around the lake and to the little church, it was also very quiet and peaceful. Our hosts were extremely helpful and easy to contact. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lakeview to anyone wanting a home away from home in spectacular Lake Tekapo.

This place is a total WOW from the moment you walk in! Very modern and extremely comfortable, with a million dollar view. We stayed in a lake view property, Beta Centauri, and I don’t know what the views are like from others in the small complex, but we highly recommend it. Everything was 10/10, great bathroom, big cozy bed, nice kitchenette and great comms from the owners about check in / out. Highly recommend the Tekapo Ramen for food, eat in or take out.

The property was amazing! The size was great, the location was secluded enough but also very central and the views were incredible! We did have some people staying next door who were a bit noisy but they left shortly after we got there and it became peaceful. We had issue with the snow coming in (we were told to not park at the property but on the road) and we did get snowed in which was only rectified a few days later. We absolutely loved the milk provided as well as the cookies, tea, coffee and hot chocolate. Deb (friend of property owner) was so accommodating, even when we booked the place only 1 hour before we needed it. Deb also helped us get in since the key pad was a little temperamental. We loved the property and the comfort of the place (as well as the lovely shower!) and would have loved to stay longer!

I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights and had a wonderful experience. First of all, the hotel offers stunning lake views, which made waking up every morning a delight. The room was very spacious, and the sofa was extremely comfortable. The room was equipped with a microwave, refrigerator, and various utensils, making our stay very convenient. The host was very nice and friendly, making us feel very welcomed. The hotel is only a 2-minute drive from the supermarket, making the location quite convenient. Overall, this was an excellent stay, and I highly recommend it!

Amazing! We loved everything about our stay at Lakeview Tekapo. The check in and check out process was super easy, the room was exceptionally clean, and the view of the lake was incredible. We appreciated the attention to detail - comfy bedding (and bed), really great smelling shower amenities, fluffy towels - I couldn't fault a thing. Our favourite part about the room was definately the skylight above the bed - we could watch the stars as we fell asleep. Perfect stay

Amazing! So comfortable, clean, modern, spacious. Was perfect for us to spend my birthday here, having a bit of luxury with amazing views of Lake Tekapo. So easy to get into town, ample parking, so quiet with great views of the stars at night too. Also had washing and drying facilities which we weren't expecting which was a bonus! Highly recommend

Bright and spacious apartment, high-quality facilities, sparkling clean rooms, comfortable beds, convenient location to town centre (within only 3 minutes drive), quiet and cozy neighbourhood with stunning views and very friendly host.

Hamish was incredibly friendly and welcoming. He made and was always available to answer any questions we had. The apartments themselves are beautifully kept, with plenty of space to relax and enjoy. The views are simply breathtaking, offering stunning sights of the lake and surrounding mountains. Everything we needed was easily accessible, making our stay even more enjoyable. And the best part the Apartments are in Dark Sky protected area and the stargazing as s result is phenomenal. We absolutely loved our time here and would highly recommend Tekapo Luxury Apartments to anyone looking for a peaceful and luxurious getaway.

This brand new apartment was amazing! Beautifully designed and decorated, plenty of space, well maintained and spotlessly clean. The lounge room was comfortable and the kitchen was perfect with a full sized fridge and everything else required. A hideaway laundry behind closed doors at the side of the kitchen was great to have available. The king size bad was super comfortable. We will definitely be recommending Tekapo Luxury Apartments to anyone we know holidaying near beautiful Lake Tekapo. Would definitely stay here again.

We had Apartment #2. It was spacious, modern and nearly brand new. The owner Ray and property manager Tiff were all super friendly and helpful in providing useful travel information for the area. They explained that the property is only 2 years old. No wonder why it looks so fresh and clean. Next time, we will make sure we stay at least 2-3 days at Tekapo Luxury Apartments to explore the area in detail. Thank you Ray and Tiff!

Room has a beautiful lake view and skylight through which I saw so many stars! it was super clean and comfortable. Facilities are quite new and I like the modern mirror light. Breakfast was included in the price and they provided breakfast in the room, with the beautiful lake view! Staff was so nice and friendly! They suggested things-to-do and good restaurants. They offered flexible check-in and check-out time. The manager Eric even gave us a lift to the stargazing tour and sent our luggages to the intercity bus stop for us after we checked out because we did not have a car! The whole experience there was really amazing. Thank you so much Galaxy Boutique Hotel and Eric!

The location is perfect. We used to stay in hotels with Lake Tekapo right in front of us and staying here gave us a better and more beautiful perspective of the lake and the mountains surrounding it. The facilities are clean, new and modern. The staff are very accommodating and cheerful. We were appreciative of the warm greetings they did in the room for our honeymoon. We also loved the breakfast. The breakfast space is small so you have to book in a timeslot or have it served in your room which we didn’t mind and is a good service as it is still unlimited. The cooked items is ordered and not served at the buffet table so it is always given fresh and warm though served after a couple of minutes from ordering. Overall, we had a relaxing and welcoming stay here.

This is a new hotel that's only been open since 2021 and the staff are excellent and very friendly. They have a very professional attitude to check-in and check-out, showing you to your room and explaining how everything works. The rooms are spacious with excellent views of the lake (provided you booked one with a view) and have a well-stocked fridge and free tea and coffee making facilities. There is an impressive skylight above the bed where you can lie back and observe the stars due to the 'dark skies' element of the town. The bathroom was large with both shower and separate bath and the whole place was spotlessly clean. Breakfast was included in the rate and I really enjoyed my conversation with the management team prior to check-out and wish them well.

The woman (so sorry, didn’t catch her name) on the front reception on the desk was so friendly, kind and welcoming! She went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with our stay and she made our whole experience at this hotel so special! Thank you! :) The lakeside room view with the sky light is absolutely amazing, the views are so stunning. The breakfast that was included was really good and you are able to eat in your room to enjoy the lake view! The staff were all really kind and helpful. The location is very central with a short walk to the lake and all the shops. I was actually sad to leave this hotel because the whole stay here was so lovely! Will definitely be coming back again!

We had a wonderful experience at this hotel. The room was cozy and comfortable, with a beautiful view of the lake and snow-covered scenery right outside our window, the location truly turned into a magical winter wonderland. Breakfast was delicious and a lovely start to our day, host was warm and welcoming. The location was fantastic- peaceful, scenic and well connected. Highly recommend this place for anyone, looking for relaxing and memorable getaway.it was wonderful experience and would love to stay here again.

Lakes Edge Holiday Park is a perfect getaway on the shores of stunning Lake Tekapo. The location offers breathtaking lake and mountain views, with easy access to Tekapo Springs, the village, and Mt. John Observatory. Accommodations range from cozy cabins to lake-view motel units and well-equipped campsites. The park is clean, well-maintained, and features excellent amenities, including communal kitchens, BBQ areas, and a playground. Friendly staff, a peaceful atmosphere, and incredible scenery make this an unforgettable stay. Highly recommended!

What a location! My daughter & I stayed in the studio apartment that had views of the lake outside our door. And only a 10 min walk to the main lovely town centre with a number of choices for yummy food! We arrived early but unfortunately could not check in earlier, so we headed to the hot pools for a swim instead that is just up the road from Lake Edges! Easy instructions to check in & a map was provided by the staff. Staff were very friendly & helpful. We had our own bathroom & shower and the cabin was very cosy, warm & clean. Coffee, tea making facilities also in our studio. We had cute ducks waddling out the front door & also bunnies 🐰 We only stayed for 1 night before we headed to Christchurch but we really enjoyed our stay. Only downside was we had people walking past all the time as we were at the front of the lake.

We originally booked the Large Cabin with Shared Facilities but later upgraded to the Family Room with Lake View — and it was definitely worth it! The upgraded room was spacious, well-equipped, and allowed everyone in our group to rest comfortably while enjoying the beautiful natural surroundings of Lake Tekapo. The staff were also incredibly friendly and helpful during the upgrade process, even though we had already checked into the original room.

Perfect location - walkable to Mt John walkway entrance and tekapo spring. Great view of the lake. A short drive from Foursquare. Kitchen was fully equipped, toilet and shower area looked newly renovated and clean. It was pretty cold at night but the beds and rooms were warm.

What a view!! The motel rooms were serviceable and spotless clean. There were kitchen utensils and pans and pots so we made breakfast every morning. The electric blanket in the bed is a game changer, specially because it was super cold some nights. The views tho! Gorgeous to see the sun shine on the snow capped mountains and the blinding blue of Lake Tekapo. Just… glorious!

Location and room upgrade was amazing. Heating options and comfort levels were so good. Personally loved the hot jacuzzi for an evening dip.

Not many options in Lake Tekapo. This is a good one Heating was a little wonky but the gas fireplace was great. Used the hottub and that was great after a day of hiking. Easy walk to town.

Apartment was huge! Loved that there was a jacuzzi as well. Easy to get downtown (quick drive)

The unit was spacious and comfortable with a well-apointed kitchen, well-apointed bathroom with separate bath and shower and two WCs. The bedrooms were also spacious and comfortable. The views were excellent and the use of the garage was an unexpected bonus. The location was excellent within a five minute walk of the centre but far enough away to be more peaceful.

Our stay at Mantra Lake Tekapo was absolutely fantastic – far better than the photos showcase online! The property is perfect for families: well-presented, spacious, and full of homey comforts. The kitchen had all the essentials, the washer/dryer was a lifesaver, and the shower was one of the best I’ve ever had (pressure, temperature, and beautiful amenities)! The underfloor heating in the bathrooms was also such a lovely surprise. The bedrooms were warm and cozy, with individual bedroom heaters plus, electric blankets on the single beds in the kids room. The spa was divine for relaxing after a day exploring (and perfect for star gazing!), and the location is great: close to local attractions, including ski fields. Kerry, the duty manager, and the staff were incredibly hospitable and I’d highly recommend this property for families or anyone wanting a relaxed, “home-style” stay in stunning Lake Tekapo. My only regret? Not booking here (and in Lake Tekapo) for longer! Note: We stayed in room/villa 5!

This is a brand new property in a great location with beautiful views. We got a very large modern and luxurious apartment. Beds were very comfortable. The jacuzzi was a nice bonus.

no fuss, great location, very clean, jacuzzi tub definitely a nice surprise

This has to be one of our favourite stays in New Zealand! Our room was graciously upgraded to a deluxe suite by Dave & Sue which we very much appreciated. The rooms were jaw-droppingly exquisite and luxurious with an amazing view of Lake Tekapo. Very spacious, clean, well furnished and stocked with everything you could need for a holiday. Parking was free and plenty. Location was only a 5 minute walk to Lake Tekapo and the Church of the Good Shepherd, and 10 minutes to restaurants which was so convenient. Accommodation definitely exceeded our expectations - looks much better than in the photos and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing and luxurious stay in Lake Tekapo.

Newly built & open since September, 2022, this hotel was most notable for its very contemporary decor and amenities, such as a heated bathroom floor, heated bathroom towels, large shower stall, water conserving bathroom faucet, 4 USB charging outlets in the room (2 at the bedside), extremely comfortable king sized bed, phenomenal room views of Lake Tekapo and its surrounding snow-capped mountains, not to also mention the complimentary milk & coffee for the room. The staff were extremely friendly, helpful & professional.

This property was a wonderful surprise. We had a beautiful view of the lake. The studio was very spacious with a fully supplied kitchenette. The bathroom was luxurious. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a comfortable, luxurious stay within easy walk to the sites and restaurants of the area.

The last time I stayed in Lake Tekapo, I didn't have a great experience with accommodation, as it seems there is a bit of a premium staying here as it is so small and so some of the places cost a lot and are not great value for money. However, at Tekapo Heights, this was really not the case. The place was fabulous and immaculate and the owners were lovely, knowledgeable and friendly. We were leaving early the next morning and so they made us a packed breakfast to take with us (there was rather a lot of butter in the sandwich, so maybe ask for no butter if you're not a thick spread butter fan!), but otherwise this was great of them, as it meant we could get on to our next destination nice and early. The room we had was spotless, so clean and maybe had been re-decorated/renovated recently. The bathroom was lovely and the shower was very smart. There was a nice view from the window. There was a huge comfortable bed and there was a little tray with food snacks on when we arrived, which was a lovely touch. It took less than 10 minutes to walk down to the main road, from which you can crossover and head to the shops/bars/restaurants along the lakeside or the Observatory Tour offices. Very handy location. Highly recommend.

This was a one night stop on our 3-week road trip around NZ. Sarah provided a warm welcome and a demonstration of the facilities in our room (Room 2 Takurua) which came with a double bed, balcony, tea/coffee facilities, microwave, and a TV/video set up that included Netflix, You Tube and connection to the internet - all of which proved too complicated to master in a single night! There is a view of the lake over the adjoining properties - the stunning view is from the breakfast lounge. Anyone booking this room should be aware that the "private bathroom" is not en suite but involves crossing the corridor. The bathroom itself is excellent with quality modern fittings but an en suite would have been much more convenient. Breakfast was taken in the communal lounge, enjoying those stunning views. The complimentary continental breakfast was included in the room rate and was excellent but, on balance, we felt that NZ$350 didn't represent particularly good value.

We had a wonderful stay at Tekapo Heights. The location was absolutely fantastic—situated in a quiet spot with stunning views, yet just a short walk to great food and beverage options in the heart of Lake Tekapo. One of the highlights was how close it was to the iconic Church of the Good Shepherd, which made for an easy and scenic stroll. The Tekapo Springs hot pools were also nearby, perfect for a relaxing soak after a day of exploring. The property itself was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, offering a peaceful retreat with beautiful surroundings. It was also a great base for a day trip to Mt. Cook, and we enjoyed a delicious stop for fresh salmon sashimi at one of the local farms along the way.

Our stay at Tekapo heights was perfect, from the warm welcome given to us by Sarah, to the excellent breakfast buffet. Our room was not the largest, but was extremely well equipped and comfortable. We were treated to an unexpected dusting of snow on the peaks, which made the views of the lake and surroundings from the terrace and breakfast room magical. An exceptional property in every way and one which we would recommend wholeheartedly.

We booked this accommodation believing it to be a stand alone suite with mountain views. This was slightly misleading as it is a room with an ensuite and a view of the car parking area, in a house of mass occupancy rooms. That said the room were very well appointed with microwaves, TV, tea/coffee making facilities. It was spotlessly clean tastefully decorated and the beds were very comfortable. The ensuite shower was a novel cubicle like a space ship with lights, only the music hadn't been fitted. There was space to park your car outside on the driveway. The manager was very helpful and efficient. The internet connection was very slow but that may be due to location. It was a reasonably priced great place to stay in Tekapo away from the hustle and bustle of the town centre. Al's Top Tips Most restaurants are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. There is a fish and chip caravan called Better Batter in the picnic area by the campsite that does very nice gluten free fish,chips and coleslaw.

This very spacious and comfortable house is also located at a very convenient location at Lake Tekapo. We can easily see how this would be the perfect vacation house for families and close friends to all gather and enjoy the beautiful lake together. The view is just phenomenal, not to mention the deck was great for star gazing at night.

Amazing views from every room. Very cozy and modern. Each room had a private bathroom. So much space while still cozy.

Great location and amazing views. It was a comfortable large house close to town with plenty of bedrooms, comfortable beds and ensuites for each room. The kitchen was large and well appointed and the house was clean and very warm and sunny

Amazing location. Spacious , comfortable living and kitchen areas. Breathtaking veiws from every window. Strong wifi, able to manage multiple devices. Warm and cosy with the heating facilities.

We loved the huge lounge, every bedroom had an ensuite which is perfect when going away with other families! Plenty of room to cook in the kitchen, a huge table and a breakfast bar too! We loved the views, easy to get into the town, we will definitely be back!

Situated in Lake Tekapo the resort comprises a number of villas many with lake views. Small bar, restaurant and free car parking. Restaurant food was limited and looked pricey plus the breakfast option for what you paid didn’t look great - so we ate outside. The checkin process was pretty quick and it was easy to find our villa which had a cracking few. Room has tv, fast WiFi and a fridge. Comfy bed but shower in the morning was disappointing - very little power and ages for the hot water to arrive and then difficult to adjust the temperature. My partner also slipped and fell in the shower as it was slippy so take care - should have had a plastic mat if that bad but none provided. Reception very helpful with an ice pack and genuine concern. Some noise from the room upstairs which was annoying as clearly they had no sense of what they were doing.

Wow what a fantastic hotel. Beautiful view across the lake. Restaurant was amazing for breakfast buffet and dinner. Special shout out to Justin, Stephanie and Molly. But all staff caring and helpful. Only one thing that wasn’t up to par was our room clean with glasses and cups not washed and milk not replaced for second day. But everything else amazing.

The location of the hotel is wonderful we had a fantastic room with a balcony overlooking the lake so lovely to be able to sit and enjoy the wonderful view the room was spacious clean and well planned the hotel is within easy walking distance of the resort amineties only negative was the breakfast which let it down with the quality of the food it was very busy in the restaurant and the hygiene of some other guests made it not a very pleasant experience ( not the hotels fault) the staff were all friendly and helpful

We had a wonderful stay at Peppers Bluewater Resort. We stayed at the 2 bedroom Mountain View suite and it was lovely. The apartment is spacious, well maintained and very clean. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The check in and check out process was fuss free and easy. We were treated with a bottle of wine and a bar of chocolate as Accor gold member. Thank you Peppers Bluewater, we would definitely return for another stay if we visit lake tekapo again. The location of the resort was excellent, there is a picnic area with a beautiful view of the lake just across the road with the most delicious fish & chips and Malaysian food takeaway.

Stayed at Peppers Bluewater Resort in Lake Tekapo and loved every minute of it. The room was clean, spacious, and comfortable, with a bathtub overlooking the lake — an incredible spot to unwind. The balcony view was stunning, and there were enough plugs for all devices (which many hotels overlook). Staff were genuinely nice and helpful throughout our stay. The only small thing is the fixed showerhead, which seems typical in New Zealand. Otherwise, everything was perfect. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Tekapo!

The new hotel is slightly elevated above the centre of Lake Tekapo in a new part of the village, the centre with its restaurants is a pleasant short walk away. The view from the hotel to the famous lake and the marvellous mountain scenery is fantastic. The path to the lake and the Chapel of the Good Shepherd is a pleasant distance away. We recommend visiting the chapel in the evening or later in the afternoon as there are fewer other tourists There is ample parking on the hotel grounds. The reception and service at reception are attentive and very friendly. Our flat was spacious and clean. The bathroom was extremely spacious. The most spacious of our trip so far. Of the two bedrooms, one faced the lake, one was at the back, unfortunately without daylight, but with sufficient artificial light and a pleasant ventilation system that made it comfortable to sleep in. We would find it helpful if the fact was mentioned in the description of the flat that one of the two rooms was without daylight. The breakfast was basic, all made with pre-made products. We found this a little disappointing. We would categorise the breakfast room as cramped and not in keeping with the hotel's price range. We enjoyed breakfast in the room, which was an ideal option for the three of us. The service was very friendly. And it can be reordered at any time. If we compare this hotel with previous stays in Lake Tekapo, it is a good option for an overnight stay (with the outlined few negative points).

This was my one splurge-stay during my 3 weeks travelling around the south island, and it was definitely worth it. Check-in was smooth and the girl on reception was super nice. She asked me what time I wanted to have my breakfast - but I was heading off early in the morning to Mt Cook. She said instead they could offer me continental breakfast which they'd bring up to my room shortly after check-in. I ordered muesli and yoghurt, but she also brought up a cappuccino sachet and a couple of energy bars. So nice! The room itself was beautiful and luxurious. The bathroom was so clean and I loved all the features like the mirror back-lighting and the rain shower. But of course the best thing was the amazing view of Lake Tekapo! I sat there and just watched the changing landscape as the sun set, warm and out of the wind. It was very peaceful. The lake is the most amazing blue I have ever seen, it's hard to describe. It's a very short and easy walk down into town, to the lake and to the supermarket. I actually only ended up finding this place online because when I booked my trip there was nowhere left to stay in Mt Cook Village except the hostel, and I wanted to stay somewhere close so I could start my hike early. In hindsight I'm super glad - I got to spend more time in this lovely town and had such a comfortable and peaceful night's sleep, waking periodically to look through the skylight and see the stars. I loved my stay here and would recommend it to anyone.

Wish we could have stayed another night here! I loved our brief stay. Upon check in, the gentleman at reception was kind and helpful and gave us some helpful tips about restaurants and closing times. The room was amazing! We ended up with a two room suite with a sitting room, kitchenette and dining area, and a large bathroom. The luxury bathroom amenities were so nice, I asked where I could purchase them! The fixtures and finishes throughout the room were all very luxe and beautiful. It truly felt like a boutique hotel. The hotel has you reserve a time for breakfast because they cook their hot items to order. The offerings were limited but delicious and sufficient to fuel us for a day of hiking. The hotel is walkable to the lake and to the town center and has gorgeous views of the night sky! It was pricey (~$300) but 1) we discovered that we had booked on a regional holiday and 2) It's a hotel in a highly visited remote area, and I think it was absolutely worth it.

Check in was breezy, when I told the girl on reception I'd be leaving early morning and would miss breakfast she offered me a continental breakfast that I could keep in my room and eat when I wanted. She brought this up to my room an hour or so after check in. I loved the bathroom, it's beautiful and luxurious with thoughtful features. The hairdryer was excellent! Most of all I loved the views out to the lake and mountains, and the skylight for watching the stars. I walked into town (5mins) to grab some takeaway dinner and then just sat in the window watching the changing landscape until the sun set. The room was very quiet and warm and I had an amazing sleep, waking periodically and gazing at the stars. It was the most expensive stay of my trip but I think worth it for the views, location and comfort!

Excellent service from start to finish. Loved the skylight and the room was new, spacious and quiet, with lovely views. Staff were sensational. The vibe is boutique and a few streets back from the busy main highway made for a very comfortable stay while we were in the room. As applied to the more pricy Peppers right on the highway! Bathroom was so well appointed with an amazing shower and comfy bath with mountain window views.

Exceptional welcome by the host! We got a lot of information about the area and details about stargazing which was possible from the lawn directly besides the property (weather dependent though, we had a super clear night). The location was amazing, directly opposite the lake with great views (perfect for a stroll and run along the lakeside). The well known Church of the Good Shepard is either a few minutes drive or 15 minute walk away. The room was very clean and we felt comfortable throughout the whole stay! Would definitely stay here again!

Firstly, I was upgraded absolutely free of charge to a room with a stunning view. Andy was so lovely and took time out of his day to recommend some places to visit and how much they would cost. The accommodation has excellent views of the Lake and is only a 2 minute drive from the restaurant. The room itself has amazing bathroom facilities and amenities (fridge, microwave ect) and a little table and chairs where you can eat food with a view. If you are like me - don't worry about parking.

Perfect location just 2 mins from town and right by the lake, stunning mountain and lake views. Very comfy bed and cosy and modern and warm with heat pump and electric blanket on beds. Super clean and just stunning!

The accommodation was warm with large windows with floods the space with natural light. The bed was comfortable and shower had good pressure with consistent heat. Quiet location within an easy stroll to the lake and the Church. Nice view across the park to the lake. Staff were friendly with local recommendations

Great room with a comfy bed and lots of space. Ideal for a short couples stay. The host also upgraded our room to one with a better view, free of charge! The area is quiet and the view of the stars is breathtaking.

Spacious, comfortable and clean property, an easy walk into town in a quiet, peaceful location. The place has everything you need for a comfortable stay, including things to cook meals with, do laundry etc. Really comfortable beds and easy check in process.

The house was comfy, warm, clean and inviting. Perfect for a weekend stay. The location was great. A short drive to the town or a nice walk. It was the perfect size for a group of friends. The shower was good as well - which isn't always the case. The heater was on when we arrived so it was toasty and warm when we got in at night.

The house is beautiful, cozy, clean, and comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped with appliances and utensils, making it convenient for cooking during the stay. The house is also close to attractions, restaurants, and supermarkets—about a 15-minute walk or a 5-minute drive.

A fantastic house to stay in Tekapo! So clean, warm, comfortable and had everything we needed (great laundry for drying togs, clothes horse for wet ski gear to go, hooks for ski jackets etc). Perfect for a family of 5. Just loved it! Great location - easy walk into town. Playground down the road was a bonus.

Truly the most amazing accommodation we’ve ever had in New Zealand. The owner put lots of thoughts making a clean, comfortable, cozy place for guests. It has all the things u may need as a family.

Spacious modern accommodation. Lovely and warm. Exceptional bedrooms, very comfortable, lovely, clean, cosy bedding. Well supplied kitchen with ample utensils, crockery, glasses etc. Nice views to the lake and handy to everything at Lake Tekapo. Easy to find and access the accommodation.

The house was very modern, very comfortable, very clean, and had all the amenities. Also, it is very close to everything in Tekapo, and has a beautiful view of the lake and Mountain.

The house was amazing!!! Close to the Lake and amenities were good!!! We got amazing views of the Sky at night!! Great shower and beautifully appointed kitchen!! Firewood was dry and good to go!!! So lovely sitting in front of the fire and looking out to the Lake!!!! Good outdoor space as well!!!

This would be my dream house if I could afford one like that! It was spacious, well-laid out with all the necessary comforts of home including a working fireplace and instructions for how to light a fire. The views out the doors in both the living and bedrooms were amazing given that Lake Tekapo is known for the night skies.

Wonderful experience, clean house and friendlier than some of the pictures. The lake is hard to see, but you have a good view on the mountains. Rabbits playing outside in the morning. Great fireplace and we appreciated a supply of wood and kindle for the night. Also coffee, tea, sugar and salt and pepper for the first night.

Everything was perfect! The view was amazing, and the heating was on for when we arrived. Such a comfortable beautiful home. Loved the electric mattress protectors too! We will definitely stay again. Was so lovely to sit in the dark lounge room to view the clear sky with all those stars!

Beautiful property with spectacular views. Close to the township. Rooms were all comfortable and warm and heaters were on before we arrived, so the house was welcoming. The welcome Booklet with info about the town, restaurants, suggested itineraries and info about the property was fantastic (good tip re having short showers, it helped us keep the kids on schedule).

The cottage is really comfortable and quiet. It is very close to some walking paths and fairly close to the lake (walkable in 15-20 minutes at a slow pace). The lake is visible from the cottage, but if you want a full view you need to get out and walk into the driveway.

Great view and location. Very clean and comfortable. Watched the stars from the bedroom ceiling viewing port. . Had everything we needed. Near Hot springs and Lake. Amazing scenery. Even had a lovely log burner.

quiet and relaxing views of mountains and lake great kitchen comfy bed also had a washing machine

Good location on shores of Lake Tekapo with direct views of the lake and a short stroll to the famous church on the lakeshore and local bars/restaurants. Tasty breakfast in the on-premise restaurant/cafe. Try to book a lake-view room on the upper floor for the best views.

Perfect location with beautiful views Charming lady on reception, comfortable bed. Parking on site. Had a wonderful stay and felt very welcome. Fantastic breakfast with friendly staff Delicious Pizza stand in nearby car park

The property is beautifully situated next to the lake, offering a stunning view from the patio. However, the presence of numerous parked cars can obstruct the view, which may be disappointing for photographers or videographers. While the room is clean, the amenities feel outdated, particularly the elevated bathtub, which poses a challenge for older guests like my parents in their 70s. It also presents a tripping hazard when entering or exiting. The room's size is another concern—it’s quite small for three occupants and feels cramped for movement, making it less suitable for families or larger groups. In my 30 years of travel, this is the smallest hotel room I’ve encountered. On the positive side, the location is excellent, with close proximity to shops, bars, and within walking distance of the Good Shepherd Church, a key attraction. This property is best suited for young couples seeking a convenient and scenic location.

Friendly helpful staff. Lovely clean comfortable room with spacious shower

The Godley Hotel is perfectly located in Tekapo!! NOTE: There is no elevator, so be prepared to lug suitcases upstairs!! The Jack Rabbit restaurant that is attached is perfect for breakfast. We went to T.L.V. for dinner, which was a nice upscale restaurant in the area and the dishes were excellent. Definitely plan on taking the time to walk around the lake to see the church and the cute shops.
