The shower water pressure needs to improve, and the shower drain needs to be looked at as it drains away very slowly.

A convenient stop for our visit to nearby Mt Dobsin. Clean and tidy. Very comfortable bed, hot shower and effective heatpump. The most important items for any stay and essential in -9 degree temperatures.

Rooms are very outdated. Heatpump does a great job but I do recommend leaving it on all night as it does get cold if you dont. Showers dont look great but arent actually too bad. Toilet seat was broken.

Shortage of handy electrical sockets.
The accommodation was very good for the price paid. My only criticism would be that there were no electrical sockets close to the positions of the mirrors provided so that I could see myself dry my hair.

We love the place. Although the room is budget double room (smallest room type) but a room equipped with kitchen and clean. The location is not far away from many restaurant.

Stayed October 2023. Basic accommodation, basic facilities, everything looks tired and worn out in need of an update. TV seemed to still be analogue only picking up two channels, a bit odd. Staff were fine, provided extra blankets and hot plate, but might consider making that standard in the rooms. Twizel itself is not a great place, it's not even that near Mt. Cook, the only real attraction in the area, not an attractive town in itself with limited amenities and odd characters wandering round the streets making it seem unsafe.

Nice quiet spacious separate chalet. Was a little dated but quite clean. Our only gripe was our room was cold. The little heat inverter couldn’t pump out enough heat to get the room warm. Fortunately they also provide electric heated blanket on bed so we slept ok.
