Fox Glacier is quite stunning, walk is relatively easy to first viewing point, we didn't get any further due to bad weather. Lovely eating places in town and a grocery store. Quite a small town so very quiet. We weren't there long enough to really explore the area

As a hiker I loved the lakes walks, and also the glacier lookout walk would have been great but the weather on that day was just too wet to complete. The lake Matheson cafe is a lovely place after a hike or good breakfasts beforehand. The town is limited, so if I wasn’t a hiker I would only have stayed a night and moved on.

There are several interesting walks to the glacier, lake etc. The helicopter to the glacier itself can be booked easily from the town. There are a number of good restaurants within easy walking distance. A overnight stay is all that is required to see & do everything.

We did the short tramp to Fox Glacier.
We did the short tramp to Fox Glacier. It’s totally worth the effort.
It’s only 30min drive to Franz Joseph where we tramped the 5 hr Roberts Point track. Reasonably arduous tramp, but again totally worth the effort.
On arrival Trish provided out of the oven muffins was nice with hot coffee.
Spacious was nice to spread out a little
Breakfasts lovely hone made bread & everything you would like to enjoy.
Trish & Collin have an amazing history of the area able to assist with special places to visit.
Great to be able view most of the fox glacier while enjoying breakfast.
Nice, clean, spacious and warm place to stay in the small village of Fox Glacier. Beautiful snow mountains scenery right in front of you from rainforest motel. The two cute doggies (one 4-months old only) following the hardworking and friendly owners everywhere, added fun to my rainy day in Fox. Would definitely recommend!
This place reminded me of a ski lodge in the US. It's was rustic but very comfy. The town is tiny and this is a great place to stay in town. We met several other couples at breakfast so that was fun. We had a large corner room that was great. They had a nice free glow work walk that left from the office at 9pm.
We had two nights in two separate rooms. Both were clean and comfortable. The first night we did have some noise from the room above, who took showers and stomped around until midnight. The second night however was super peaceful and was more private. A great location to visit Fox Glacier, would stay again.
There was no one to speak with.
We have found that in general 3verything in the Glaciers area us very expensive. So the hotel price relative to the area was cheaper. But in relative to what you get it is expensive.
We got a single and double bed. The single was horrible to sleep on.
The location is superb with views of Mts. Cook & Tasman & just a short drive to Lake Matheson & Fox Glacier viewpoint. It's a quiet location just outside the village, which is very small. There are few shops & just a small general store but there are a few places to eat & drink.
We were left instructions to get into our room so did not meet the host, Kristen, but she left a note
with all instructions.
Our room was very clean and comfortable with all amenities we needed. Great shower!
Good location for visiting Lake Matheson and Fox Glacier.
Stunningly beautiful location. The comfortable rooms were well-appointed and cosy - able to withstand the rapidly changing Winter weather in Fox Glacier. The proprietor could not have been more helpful and friendly. We very much enjoyed our stay in this lovely place.
big size clean room and looks modern too
the shower is very warm and water pressure is lovely and strong !
very close to fox glacier tour meeting point ! so can wake up a bit later
have all the kitchen appliances to cook a proper meal!
1. comfortable single bed in a room with 2 other roommates
2. good shower pressure and temperature
3. Hair dryer is provided
4. well maintained kitchen and kitchenware
5. affordable clean and well managed backpackers lodge
A wonderful spot to stay in Fox Glacier. Comfortable beds and rooms and plenty of toilets and showers. The kitchen was decently big and several places to sit in groups or alone.
Good central location in town, and a mere 5 minutes walk to a small walk with glow worms and maybe 15 minutes walk to the south side fox glacier track.
