Staff didn't seem particularly interested in being helpful, did not give even the slightest overview. The kitchen was poorly equipped, e.g. no frying pan, strainer, bowls, sharp knife, or wooden spoon. The place was very spacious and clean. I found the bed comfy. TV with Netflix. I think you can expect more given the rate.

The property is cost effective, and the manager Stephanie was excellent to deal with. The rooms are average but are cost effective. But I really enjoyed the warm floor in the bathroom, and the spa bath. They have a little kitchenette with the necessary pots and pans etc to cook a nice breakfast. The outside tub is just the greatest. It is timber and heated by an attached fireplace. There was nothing like going for a long walk and then coming back to sit in the hot tub. Rain, hail or shine the hot tub was the greatest. Just the right size for two to be cozy. Special mention to the owner Nigel who also runs a Tesla trip for 1-3 people to the Milford Sounds. Very exclusive trip and it sure beats joining a bus trip. You must buy the picnic hamper. The hamper is 2nd to none and includes high quality picnic, tasty items.

I had a fantastic experience at Anchorage Motel Apartments! The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, but what truly stood out was the staff. They went above and beyond with incredible patience and genuine care. Their local knowledge was invaluable — from recommending the best spots to eat to helping plan out scenic routes and activities. You can really tell they love their community and want guests to enjoy every moment. Highly recommended if you're looking for a welcoming place with that extra personal touch!

A great place to stay before driving to Milford Sound. We had a lovely welcome from the receptionist who showed us to our room. A short drive into town for plenty of dining options for dinner. The kitchen was well equipped. Nice big bathroom, a ventilation fan would be helpful. Good value for money and would stay again.
