We felt right at home from the meet and greet on. Molly’s mum was great. Good humoured and witty. The room was clean and comfortable and with plenty of space for our daughter and her husband to come round in the evening for cards. Lots of equipment in the kitchen including things, kitchen paper, that we haven’t found before on our travels. A really simple outside area to sit and chill and with great views of the mountains at no extra cost! Plenty of good spaced parking. The bed was comfy. The a/c excellent and simple to use. The bathroom? Functional. Lots of things nearby, including super market, restaurants, and the waterfront. We enjoyed the Thai, Italian by the supermarket, and the Fat Duck. All easy walking away. Molly’s mum even came up with a UK toothbrush charger adaptor.

Thought long and hard and failed to come up with anything!

Good location. The kitchen includes an oven and a full-scale stovetop. Umbrellas available. Washing machine and drier available (extra charge). Friendly hosts.

We booked the room with 3 single beds, thinking that the 3rd bed would give us a comfortable place to open our suitcases. Unfortunately, we were forbidden to place any bags/luggage on the beds. The 3rd bed became a waste of space, and the room was then quite congested when opening our big suitcases. Noise from the shared washing machine corner is audible when in the room.

Good location and clean and comfortable.

The blow heater in the bathroom didn’t work and the air conditioner seemed to not work on the second day. Otherwise all good for the price. Didn’t love all the warning notices about not leaving the blow heater in the bathroom on (we didn’t), not cooking smelly tho ha, etc etc. A warning was fine but all the excalamation marks and excessive reprimands was not necessary. Obviously they’ve had bad experiences with previous guests but it felt like we were being told off unecessarily 😅 (perhaps get someone else to re-word these for you in a more welcoming tone).

perfect location for our planned day trips and activities. clean and comfortable room, kitchenette had more that I needed, but was just there for I think 2 nights? would have been perfect for few more days. easy to use heating/cooling unit, never watched TV so unsure how it was. Staff very helpful!

Honestly there isnt really anything I didn't like. room smelled fresh on arrival. The bed could have been a little more comfortable compared to other stays but still got a great night sleep!

Good property. Well located, clean and comfortable. Our room had cooking facilities if required and a guest laundry which was a great facility for those on the move. The property is surrounded by lovely gardens. Staff were friendly and accommodating. They had the sweetest little dog who really made us smile. Would have been nice to have options for viewing other than local tv but all things considered a nice place to stay

More tv viewing option such as Netflix would have been nice.

This motel, located at 10 mins-walk from town center, offers cozy and fully-functional cottage for a family up to 7 people, serving the common household needs such as cooking and washing. The washing machine plus dryer combination is extremely useful for multi-day tour. Finally, the receptionist is extremely considerate as she stayed until 9:00 PM, well beyond normal business hours, to hand over the room to us.

The insulation of sound between rooms need some improvement.

Aden hotel What a great choice for our 2 night stay for the purpose of visiting Milford sound. David and Irene could not have been more pleasant, helpful and informative Parking for your car was right outside your apartment, which were named after local bird species The apartment itself was comfortable, with a good sized bathroom great shower and a well equipped kitchen The gardens in the grounds were looking well even though they had subject to a lot of rain and it has a herb garden for you to use. The centre of town itself was about a 15 minute walk via a walkway also the lakefront a 5 minute walk could also be accessed through a lane. Our next port of call was Invercargill and Irene gave us a great brochure with details of places to visit and stops on the way. You won’t go wrong if staying here!

Entrance was directly into the bedroom area.

Great location for exploring Fiordland, and makes for an ideal base to drive to Milford Sound for a boat cruise. Motel was quiet and spacious, great shower (water pressure), and the kitchenette, although basic, will be enough for cooking a few meals.

The notes. There are a number of 'reminders' about staying at the property in prominent positions. They're all fair and reasonable, but it does leave you feeling like a scolded child visiting your grandparents.

Easy walk to lake and less than 15 min to restaurants and shops. Great place to stay for price. Te Anau is beautiful! We hiked a section of the Kepler track on one day and spent a day in Milford sound on another day. Glad we stayed 2 days to see the area. It is an older facility, but well kept and the staff was fantastic.

Parking was a little weird, but you could easily find parking on the street if you have a larger vehicle. Even though you are super close to the lake there are no view of the lake or anything else other than the car.

Everything we needed from a motel. Nice friendly welcome from Molly the dog. Some effort put in to the decor with nice touches. Clean and perfectly comfortable with parking right outside. We didn’t use it but good to see laundry service and space for children.

Not too far from the lake but probably a good 15 minutes walk from shops and restaurants. Some of the furniture could do with being updated to match the nice decor touches.
