Overall Ratings & Reviews Wanaka View Motel

Very kind host and perfect location!

The room worked well for us. The bed was super comfortable and the room was very clean and cool in the hot summer nights. Staff went above and beyond to help us out when we had to leave early. Thank you so much for a great stay.

We booked this stay through Expedia on November 13, still planning rest of trip and decided maybe best to stay 2 nights in Wānaka, messaged hotel directly asking if we could add a night. No response so booked in Twizel. Arrive in Wanaka for our 1 night stay and leave next morning and PIp says no you are staying 2 nights that’s why I upgraded you. I said you never sent me a confirmation email, she said I did the 13th our stay was the 15th and we were flying from Sydney. You can’t wait a month to say yes you have a room available another night. I asked for a refund for second night and she said that’s not possible. I need to get a cleaning lady in here and hope I can rent room. I offered to help clean room and there was only 1 other family there. I will be disputing charge with my credit card!

Close to main part of town.

This was a lovely little roadside hotel with a cottage feel. Our room was very clean and well appointed. Great location with lake view and park view. Paragliders landed in the park while we were there. The laundry room is very convenient and there is a private clothes line to hang dry! Wanaka is a beautiful town with great restaurants and shopping. I wish we would have skipped Tekapo and stayed here another night or two instead.

2nd floor room but no lift

We were put into a small basement room with no windows. It's not even as good as other 3 star hotels we stayed.

Nice view, close to lake and amenities

So beautiful wish I could’ve stayed here longer, but we had so much to see!

Excellent and comfortable stay

Nice and cute place to stay!

Everything you need in small package with character

Motel was well sited within easy walking to shops and perfect lake views. Kitchen had everything you need and comfy beds. Great shower too with excellent pressure. Lovely host who checked in and was able to offer practical suggestions. Will stay there again

Just about on the lake front. Very close to the town centre. Very functioning unit.

We had a pleasant stay at this Hotel , we got a front room with nice views overs the park to the lake, We had some hot weather so AC would have been useful, Other than that all was good , would stay again.

Handy quiet everything you need plus laundry. Owner very helpful for advising activities.

The owner very friendly & helpful..close to the eminities..

Beautiful place, lovely people, highly recommended. I had a slightly secluded room which was perfect for my needs. The front rooms look magical if all you have to do is sit back, relax and enjoy. Thanks for a great stay.

The room was quite cold. It would have been perfect for staying in the summer.

Utensils not well maintained No garbage bags But reception staff very helpful
