We stayed in a 2 bedroom villa, which was in the back of the hotel. We had no lake view, but the villa was quiet, clean and comfy.

Great location and Breakfast!

Great location. The hotel is older and feels its age (bathroom and beds could use some refreshing). Otherwise the service was great and the stay included a wonderful breakfast.
2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved our stay! Had been there many years ago and as charming as ever. Room overlooked lake and beds were comfortable. Excellent Christmas Day buffet. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Te Anu which is much more convenient to Milford and Doubtful Sound than Queenstown.

2 nights in Te Anau

Great stay. We had a villa. No view. Carpet had a musty smell but other than that everything was great. Great breakfast buffet and having a sauna to use was really nice. Staff was friendly. Bed comfortable. Nice bathroom.

10/10 Exceptional

The villa option was a great way to be with family at a better cost that 2 rooms. More comfortable as well. I did 4 stars for condition ONLY because it's a bit older property and parts were a bit worn, but the rooms were impeccable as were the dining and other amenities. Perfect location as well. A great place to stay.
Donald, 2-night trip

Travelled with the family to stay at Distinction. We were in a villa with 2 bedrooms. Overall the accommodation and breakfast were excellent. Would definitely recommend staying here.
Henry, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Ok but a bit dated.

Ok, a bit pricy for what you get. Felt a bit dated. Service ok but a bit unpersonal. There was a Christmas buffe that we did not want and therefor there was no option to order any food at all. Not even some fries. Beds ok, the view was nice. Breakfast a bit loud but the food was good. Parking great. Location really good.
