Mike and Pam were absolutely brilliant hosts: knowledgeable, attentive (without being intrusive). They gave us the feeling that nothing was too much trouble and were helpful, friendly and wonderful from start to finish. The hotel is right next to the Ferry Terminal (literally across the road if you’re going to Stewart Island, Rakiura), there’s a little Four Square Supermarket a couple of doors down for all the essentials and some great choices for dinner if you’re around in the evening. The beds were lovely and comfortable. Linen was immaculate and excellent quality and the hotel has some brilliant original Art Deco features and character, plus a bar and lounge to relax after an days adventuring!

My family and I really loved the hotel and the Family Suite. They did not wish to leave as we feeling so much at home. The location of your hotel is also one of your greatest assets as it is so picturesque and set in a breathtaking location. Te Anau being the gateaway for Milford Sound, Doubtful Sound, and Otago is also the icing on the cake. We have a tremendous and fun filled time. Thank you so much. We are looking to return in 2 years time.

Te Anau is a quaint village on the lake with beautiful alpine scenery. Easy to get around by foot. It’s an ideal spot to relax before and/or after travelling to Milford Sound. The downside is that I didn’t stay long enough!

Highlights of Invercargill were the friendly people and good dining. The Transport Museum was outstanding, as was Queens Park. The city itself is quite ugly, treeless and windswept, with few attractive buildings. Good for a short stay or transit stopover.

Tranquil town away from the touristy hubbub of Te Anau but within range to catch the tour to Milford Sound. The Church restaurant served excellent meals at a reasonable price. Probably best suited to tours to Doubtful Sounds, but we did not mind the 20 minute drive to Te Anau.

You don't need to spend money on tours if you don't have it (I never do), as there are plenty of beautiful walks to discover for yourself. Ulva Island is a must, though!!! The bird life is amazing, and even though at home we have plenty of kereru, piwakawaka, bellbirds, the song and sight of these guys over there is next level. Kereru, walking or sitting on the ground, is not seen in cities. Do take sandfly spray as these wee guys are also very friendly 😉

Yummy meals in the local pub bistro, great beach down the road and a well stocked superette ( small supermarket) Funny and slightly rude t shirts and other souvenirs on sale worth a sausage theme! You are close to the start of the humpridge track which is the best of the NZ great walks i have done ( I've done 5 of them)

This is a warm, well-appointed and charming but unpretentious accommodation that suited our needs as 'passing-through" visitors. It was ideally placed in our swing through Southland and Central Otago to catch up with friends in various locations over this region. I should add that we booked here because we had few other options brought about by changes in itinerary that meant we were searching for somewhere suitable with only a day's advance notice! All in all, we were very happy with our choice. We cooked our own meals on perfectly adequate facilities.

Quiet little town between Queenstown and Milford Sound.

Quiet little town between Queenstown and Milford Sound. Room rates are very reasonable; and the attached resturant was very good. The lamb shank was excellent! Fun place to hang with the friendly locals. It is a good 3 hour drive to Milford Sound from here (not the 2:15 the GPS will say) so you need to leave extra time if you have a boat tour scheduled. Mossburn is a good place to gas up your car before leaving for Milford Sound or Queenstown. Our room had a large attached bathroom, and the shower had great water pressure. Secure parking located behind the building gave easy access to the rooms. Don't be afraid to go to Milford Sound if it's raining; the waterfalls are even more spectacular!

The obvious starting point for your Milford Sound experience., Te Anau has the look, feel & scenic beauty of a Canadian Great Lakes Town but all set in Southern New Zealand. Te Anau is surrounded in Alps & beautiful Blue Lakes making the scenery very easy to digest. There's everything you need here in the shape of accommodation, bars/Pubs, restaurants, shopping, supermarkets etc. Chill out for a few days of Te Anau tranquility before taking on the crowds & traffic nonsense of Milford Sound.
