Leah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This motel suited my needs well. After hiking at Mt Cook I needed a quiet place to get a good sleep and I found it here. The small town is full of friendly folk as well.
Hayden, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice and close to Fairlie township. Walkable to restaurants, coffee and, of course, the pies. Little bit of road noise (it’s approx 40m from main road to Tekapo). Very nice arriving after hours with keys in the door and unit warmed up by a heater😀 Just all too easy!
Robert, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location, comfy beds, clean facility, and we were thrilled to be greeted upon arrival by Pip, the unofficial welcome dog. Everything we could possibly want in accommodations.

My fault I never realised Fairlee was so far away from Tekapo. good half an hr drive. Old style motel from the 1970's. Comfy and close to public road.

Raewyn, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I only gave 4 stars for staff because I didn’t see anyone. The system seems to be a contactless checkin/checkout but it worked. The property was clean and had everything I needed plus little extras. Only stopped by as a break in a long journey but it was a very nice stay.
Kayleigh, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This a very comfortable property. We felt right at home. A great central location to explore Mount Cook or the coast.
Gary, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I was really impressed with the attention to detail. The room was beautifully presented and Erin (the owner) has obviously poured a lot of love into this place. Bravo. I stayed at the motel as a convenient/cost effective alternative to higher price Lake Tekapo accom and was pleased with my choice. Would stay again when visiting Tekapo.
Daniel, 1-night trip

Great stopover location!

Clean and convenient place to stay with all the amenities. Couldn't be happier with the place. Also...easiest check in and check out ever! Found the key in the door and left the key in the door. Doesn't get easier than that!
