Top Ben Ohau Hotel Reviews

Mt Cook Lodge & Motels

10/10 Excellent

"This was a beautiful room in a very beautiful, dramatic setting. It was extremely clean with a very comfortable bed. TV was a bit fiddly to get working but overall very nice. My only gripes were a) the fridge... too small and not cold enough, b) the tiled shower floor was extremely slippery when wet, be careful!!! and c) you had to call reception to turn the heating up or down, which they only seemed to do after about three attempts. Otherwise, great."

Peppers Bluewater Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in a two bedroom mountain view apartment . We loved how spacious and clean it was. Convenient location, great view from the balcony and upstairs living areas and helpful staff . We would return."

Galaxy Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great and quiet location. Room was comfy, spacious and nice as well. Staff was friendly and hotel included breakfast which we sadly skipped as we had an early morning out."

Sierra Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice and homely motel. The family was friendly and helpful providing information on the town upon check in. Room was spacious and clean as well and we had a comfy night stay. The only downside was that there were some flies in the bathroom which we didn’t know came from where as all the windows were shut"

Ahuriri Motels

8/10 Good

"The so-called studio room was clean, just a bit small for two people since there was not really space for the luggage of two guests as there was no cupboard and no luggage holders. The bathroom was clean and functional but again a bit small and the shower was a wet one which made the majority of the floor wet after a shower although the curtain reached the floor. It is a nice place though and it has a laundry room which we used for a reasonable price. The parking was free and altogether, the price was very reasonable for what you got."

High Country Motel and Backpackers

8/10 Good

"The room is smaller than it looks in the photos. All other facilities work well, except the Wi‑Fi signal is quite weak."

Haka House Hostel – Aoraki Mt Cook

10/10 Excellent

"Great hostel! Very clean, comfortable, convenient location, friendly staff and incredible views. A great base for staying in Mt Cook."

Skyrim Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Key lock is scratched and could not read it well, bed really comfortable, need a few more kitchen items, couch uncomfortable. Very nice little unit"

Lake Ruataniwha Holiday Park

8/10 Good

"The quad cabin where we were staying had strong wood smell, we didn’t feel comfortable with. Very friendly staff, good shared kitchen facilities."
