Just basic accommodation. We arrived around 6:30pm and nothing in the town was open for food so we had to drive to Te Anau. The water went off (it was a whole town outage) but with no water in the fridge it made for an uncomfortable night. It was back on in the morning for a well needed shower.

When I made the booking I saw that it advertised as wheel chair accessible.Not!! When you got out of the car there where 3 steps to climb to get to the unit these were at less 20cm high For the wheel chair to gain access we had to push the chair down a gravel driveway to access the concrete path to the unit. Before we got on to the path we had a fairly high lip to get over. We were in unit 18 so it was hard pushing the chair. To get into the unit you had another step,again 20cm high. No way could my husband manage this. Fortunately we travel with a small ramp so we were able to get in going in back wards - again another high lip at door entrance. Movement available around the unit NIL. Shower over the bath !! WE WILL NOT BE GOING BACK

Water was not available for some time but we were not notified by the staff. There was a toaster but no plates, bowls or cutlery (except teaspoons) to be able to have cereal or toast. The fridge froze the milk. There was no fan or means of cooling the room on the hot night I had there, nor was there a top sheet or doona cover on the bed. Another guest was allocated an uncleaned room and had a lot of trouble contacting staff to deal with it.

Despide the bad reviews - it was clean, friendly stuff and stunning views. The building is aged - but the price is ok because of the good views. Everything good- we sleep well- and enjoyed our stay there.

This motel looks unloved. The young staff member was pleasant and the view is incredible but they are the only redeeming features. Extremely basic motel. The laundry did not work and the bed was terrible. We were supplied with a torn towel. As this was an expensive motel there was no value for money.

The entire property was staffed by one very nice young man but he was obviouslyoverwhelmed. When we first arrived, we were the only guests. The whole place is creepy. The restaurant is not open, the bar is not open. The laundry is inoperable. The rooms are small and poorly maintained. The yards are not maintained. The buildings aren't maintained.

Well.....this is why you should take a moment to read the reviews before you book. There must have been 30 units and we were the only ones there for 2 nights! When we arrived, there was no-one there. We went for a drive and rang until someone answered their phone so we could get a key. The room wasn't sparkling clean - the carpet had not been vacuumed. We went and bought disposable plates and cutlery as there was only cups. The bed was comfortable and the view......incredible.

We were very disappointed - the heater didn't work, there was something seriously wrong with the TV - only 1 channel worked, the rest of them were frozen (and were still frozen in exactly the same places the next morning - we have photos), AND it wouldn't accept casting from our devices. Also, there was a lot of black mould in the fridge, the toilet wasn't clean, and the shelf in the bathroom vanity was unusable due to dirt/rust (we also photos of these). Finally, no one answered the cell phone number that was provided, nor the landline, nor any of our texts. We stayed here earlier this year, and enjoyed our stay, which is why we returned, but unless we receive an apology and (at least) a partial refund, and an assurance that this won't happen again, we won't be returning. Sincerely, Evan and Virginia Sweney

This was a bizarre stay and quite eerie. I’m sure Manapouri thrives in the summer months but it was deserted in August. We arrived with the map taking us to the cafe (which looked as though it was closed down) rather than hotel, upon figuring out where the hotel was our key had been left out the front of reception which was closed. We found our room with no dramas, and whilst it initially appeared well presented, we soon noticed the bathroom was not clean (hair that was not ours on the floor and in the shower), mould in the shower, sand on the chair, and the quilt cover had not been cleaned either - one can only hope the sheets had been washed. The television did not work well either, with stations freezing or not being available at all - this may be due to the location but we were told about this if this is the case. During our time here we did not see a single person, however, did hear traffic pass every so often. Check out was easy, dropping the key off where we picked it up, but for 9am on a Monday morning we would’ve expected to see a staff member and this did not happen. Not worth the money we paid, and whilst the room did the job we would not stay again.
