Spacious
The apartments are spacious and are very well appointed. The outdoor facilities are very good. The only monus is some apartments are closed to the highway and rooms are not soundproofed. Apartment's located further down the site would not be affected from the road noise.

Nice place with great possibilities
We enjoyed our stay in Lake Tekapo, a great place to visit. The Mantra Lake Tekapo was very comfortable home with plenty of room. Overall was very good. Things that were minor things: when asked for propane to replace in the community grill, it do not get replaced in our 3-night stay. Hot tub did not work and emailed about a problem with ceiling light, we received no response.

I had an incredibly frustrating experience at this hotel. The staff proved unhelpful, and due to the deplorable condition of the upper floors, I was forced to relocate all mattresses to the ground floor, enduring a night of discomfort sleeping on the floor.

Two night very comfortable stay at Mantra Tekapo. The lovely host was super friendly and made us feel very welcome. Well equipped room with full amenities, two balconies and outdoor area with seating. Close to village shops, short and flat walk. Will def look to come back in Summer with a larger friend group as I think the pool, spa, bbq/fire pit area are the perfect set up for a lovely afternoon relaxing in the Tekapo.
