Staff were very friendly and attentive. appreciated being offered quiet location in the restaurant bar for dinner and area for breakfast due to the tours going through at the same time. Easily walkable to anywhere in Te Anau Villa was a bit dated, but bathroom had been totally renovated and was clean and quiet. Bed was only a double was soft and had roll together, probably time to replace.

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.

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.
