Sunset Motel
Wow. The view was just like the picture. Loved it. And so close to everything. Just 5km to Lake Matheson, to the glacier walk start, 1km from the township. Peaceful, affordable. The room was well appointed. Shower lovely. We can’t fault it. Stay here, don’t stay in Franz Joseph.

Excellent pace to stay in Frank Joseph. Modern and clean, great amenities. A home away from home. Great long veranda to take in the awesome view of the mountains. Stargazing was spectacular.
