10/10 Excellent
"Always love my stay at MtCook View Motel. We were warmly welcomed by the Owner as well as his lovely dogs. Our room was already lovely and warm and the beds were very comfortable. Just Mother Nature decided that we didn’t need to see the Alps this visit."

10/10 Excellent
"Lovely stay in the Rainforest motel. Andy is a great host who made us feel very welcome. We sadly, were only there for one night, as we were passing through on our way to Queenstown, however if we are lucky enough to return to NZ we would definitely stay here for a few nights. The property is comfortable, clean and the unit we had was updated and had a great new bathroom / wet room. The whole motel complex has such a relaxed feel about it and we have no doubt recommending it as a great place to stay. Thank you Andy and staff ."
