"This is NOT a rating about Tekapo Blue Cottage or its Owner! This is about me booking this property on Expedia, them confirming my booking and when I arrived in New Zealand to this property it was already occupied by another couple and I was then sent another address and property that was NOTHING similar to what I actually booked. Expedia has only offered me a $25 One Key cash credit. Don’t Trust Expedia when booking this property! Contact the Owner direct! Fix the problem Expedia and hold...

Top Ben Ohau Hotel Reviews

Lake Tekapo Village Motel

Lake Tekapo Village Motel

8/10 Good
"The room was clean and as expected. The bathroom showed signs of wear with little bits of mold in the shower. There was a jacuzzi tub which we didn’t use but someone may find that useful if you have little children who need baths rather than showers. There was shampoo and body wash but no hair conditioner. The best part of this property was the location and the meal voucher for the restaurant next door. That was completely worth it. The location is perfect for walking to the church and around the lake. Overall this was a perfect stop for us from Christchurch on our way to Mt. Cook."
