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.
Colin and Trish are the perfect hosts serving an excellent breakfast and happy to advice on nearby sights restaurants .wonderful views of Fox Glacier from the property and the nearby viewing area where there is an excellent cafe and gift shop.The owners little dog is very friendly .Good Wi-Fi and powerful shower .
Franz Joseph Glacier is not far away by car so this accomodation is a good base for seeing both Glaciers
The Lodge is very quaint and set in a quiet lane. Very good rooms with a wooden theme decord.
The Breakfast was very nice.
The Owners were very helpful. We were 3 cyclists from India riding across South Island. Due to some bike problems, We were late in our riding schedule. So on our request, The hotel even refunded a prepaid room stay as we had to check out 1 day earlier.
Highly recommended.
Rgds.
We had a cabin room with 4 people. There was plenty of room. The cabin was clean and tidy. The kitchenette was well stocked for making breakfast. Breakfast is not included. The second room has a loft window so you are woken by the light at sunrise. The bathroom had a shower with good water pressure and hot water. The location was best for us being across from Fox Glacier Guides.
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.
The motel locates in the very good spot of Fox Glacier town.
The room is as good as always.
I have been there many times and the quality still remain.
Even the location is away out of town but reacheable.
You can walk to Fox Glacier town if you with but travelling by car is more convenience.
Convenient hostel located at Fox Glacier with a large communal kitchen and hang out common area. WiFi is excellent. There is an area with individual showers (nice showers) and an area with individual toilets. There is an outdoor hot tub. We parked on the street in front which was convenient.
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.
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.
Good location, right in the centre of Fox Glacier town. Free parking right outside.
It was useful to have a kettle & fridge in our en-suite room, and we also had use of the large well-equipped communal kitchen which was nearby.
Comfortable bed & good shower.
I want to give a special shout out to Matt for being so helpful with my booking for a helicopter ride out of Fox Glacier. Although things didn’t go as hoped in the end, it certainly wasn’t because he didn’t go above and beyond to try and I’m grateful for that.
Excellent location for our activities, walking Lake Matheson, viewing Fox glacier and very close to grocery and food outlets.
The units were clean, warm and comfortable and the staff responded promptly to some maintenance issues.
Fabulous classic, spacious, warm motel room with everything we needed for a two night stay at Fox Glacier. The icing on the cake was the magnificent outlook to Mt Aoraki from each room. Excellent value.
