    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.

    it was fantastically clean, which I appreciated having stayed in a pod the night before. Fox Glacier itself is very beautiful and peaceful however is further and quieter than the neighbouring glacier Franz Josef. The room was large and everything was spotless, staff were very accomodating and friendly, showed me what was near by and a recommended spot to grab a bite which I am very thankful for. Just a shame I visited on a cloudy day and there wasn’t much to see.

    This place is conveniently located. I Loved that Ann was so engaging, warm and friendly. Being a local, she had extensive knowledge of the history of Fox Glacier and the community.. The kitchen, lounge and the room was thoughtfully decorated and spacious. The deck of perfectly facing the mountains and the sunset which is an ideal way to the finish your day. It's a must visit town and backpacker hostel.

    The staff at the lodge were welcoming and friendly and do a guided slow worn tour every night for guests which was a bonus. Apart from the good room and excellent ‘help yourself ‘ breakfast room they sourced soya milk for my diary intolerant husband and even promised to post something I’d left behind. Very happy with Fox Glacier lodge and their customer relations.

    The location was perfect! Beautiful view of the Fox Glacier just down the street and a super convenient place to see the glow worms for Free just 5 minutes away. The room was comfortable and nice to have a king-sized bed and more than just 1 towel per person. Convinent to have breakfast in the morning right at the house, plus farm fresh eggs.

    We were so welcomed from the beginning of our stay and we felt right at home. We were able to use the kitchen freely to cook. The lodge is walking distance to the Fox Glacier tour. Free glo-worm tours in the evening — I would highly recommend this lodge to anyone visiting, 10/10

    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.
