Conditions and location are excellent. Hotel has its own restaurant Price is reasonable and food amounts is very enough. However, it doesn't have lunch and dinner end at 9:00pm. If you come late, you can eat snack only.

Great position and stunning views

Beautiful view of the mountains from the balcony. Motel style with bar and restaurant. Room was nice, reception area had an awful smell, not sure what is was, possibly the carpet. However, we were not staying in reception! So overall a nice property.

Room above us was noisy. Options to eat and sleep are limited in the whole area, so felt good about the choice to do some great hiking.

Great location to stay if visiting Mt Cook

Valley view room was superb, room clean and comfortable. Would have given 5 stars across the board however, still some issues they need to work out regarding their heater and telephone. Heater stopped working after we came back from dinner, luckily we found some extra blankets to keep us warm overnight. Phone was not working either.

Room with a view down the valley was worth the extra cost. Requested in advance that beds be set as 2 singles. This hadn't been done but was quickly rectified. Limited dining options is our only grumble. Excellent base for a few days

Loved it

We really enjoyed our stay here. Rooms seem updated and clean, and had great views (the front rooms have a better view of the mountains of course). Also the on site restaurant was perfect for dinner.

Motel room with a gorgeous view. Comfy bed, decent shower. Noise from others was not an issue for us. For breakfast and lunch options you have to go to the Heritage, which is a 10-minute walk.

Comfortable and quiet

Mt Cook Lodge was surprisingly pleasant. I wasn't expecting much but the room was well fitted and quiet, and the bathroom was spacious and had heated floors which would be very good in winter. The cafe was a bit pricey but the food was very good. The walks were great fun and the views amazing but unfortunately the glaciers are receding rapidly and icebergs in the lakes are very small. I suggest you stay here a night or two and see them as soon as possible before they're gone forever.
