Accommodation dated but very clean”

We booked and paid for Accommodation for 5 online. Turned up and new Manager said they decided to not sell that room for 5 people anymore. Then proceeded to say that we had to pay for the 5th bed even though we paid for it. She banged on her desk with her fists and said "I don't have time for this" We didn't pay AGAIN for the 5th bed after much discussion. Great accommodation, central, big enough room. Would recommend but if booking for more than for I would suggest to contact direct.

Great stay at Tekapo!”

Our room was spacious and complete with the necessary amenities. It’s located right at the center of the town & all the eateries and supermarket were at walking distance. The view of the lake from our room was just stunning. In addition, the room was well maintained and the bed was comfortable. Unfortunately there was a construction of the new YHA in front of the Motel, not sure if the lake view would be obstructed in the future; likely not. Overall it was a great stay at Tekapo and we highly recommend this Motel.

Terrible service, absolute waste of money”

I've lived in NZ all my life and this was my first trip to south island. Because I am pregnant with my first child (3rd trimester), we have decided to give up all the activities and focus on 2 things: view from the motel and eat good food. Lake Tekapo Village Motel was the first motel we stayed in south island, we've selected it because it stated that it had good lake view. When we searched it on the map, it was right in front of the lake hence we gave up on the other accomodation options and selected this motel. There was no warning before and after check-in, we literally went into the room and found out that the construction site was blocking our lake view. We thought about various options but there were no other rooms available and it was too late to find other accomodation. So I went up to the reception, explained about how upset we were and the man who was at the counter advised us that he would discuss it with the owner and get back to us the next morning.

SUCKED but clean”

We got the "Suite with Lake View" , however, there was construction right outside our window and therefore, NO LAKE VIEW AT ALL. If there was a way to upload photos, let me know and I will! Please keep note; all labels should be updated as MOST OF THE ROOMS NOW DO NOT HAVE A LAKE VIEW due to construction of another lodging place right in front of the motel, between the motel and the lake! Instead of this location, and for the view of construction scenery, we would have booked something a bit further up a hill that would have been cheaper by around ~$100 cheaper, with a better NON CONSTRUCTION view, though it may be a 5 min walk further from the Lake. The staff should have at least given us a discount for such false advertising. Also, the bed had a heated quilt but there were no outlets to plug the heater... so what is the point of a heater blanket that I would not be able to use?? SCAM!! AVOID!!!
