High Peaks Hotel

Big room. Comfortable bed. A little out of town. Wifi not great in room.

Waren dort zwei Nächte. War OK sehr altbacken und Renovierungsbedürftig. Restaurant leider geschlossen. Sauber und alles da was man braucht.

Only that there was no toaster, otherwise quite happy.

Bathroom smelled like mold. But everything looked clean. Good shower pressure. Other than the smell, this was a great price n would stay again. Slow wifi.

The owners appear to be new to the business. The lady was friendly and helpful. The laundry area worked well but could use a cleaning. The shower door leaked water onto the floor which could cause problems over time. A few more dishes would have been useful ie bowls for cereal.

Room had no toaster no microwave or utilities had trouble with tv

The room we had was great. Very good sound proofing. Spaciou room.Comfortable chairs. Ex bed. Office area was ex. 2 things though - cafe and dining area was closed and our room had only 2 cups, 1 wine glass. Electric jug. No spoons or crockery. Car park weedy and scruffy.

No milk supplied, tv no working no signal, thin curtains and extra light left on all night, noisy fridge had to be turned off because of noise therefore useless, no air conditioning glade it was not cold!

Property was OK, they were giving it a spruce up, room was clean,2 rubbish bins which is a first, shower was great, could have been awesome if the in-house restaurant was up and running, looked a great facility, but also understand about paying extra staff to man it.

Stated restaurant on site but has been shut for a while

Room was clean and comfortable but lights in the bathroom didn't work and one bedside light was broken and not fixed but replaced with a plug in lamp. TV reception was poor with only three or four channels despite many more listed in the room information. Views outside were of a disused, untidy building.

Private comfortable and very clean

Bathroom smelled like mold. But everything looked clean. Good shower pressure. Other than the smell, this was a great price n would stay again. Slow wifi.

Felt derelict, arrived to the car park with lots of weeds. Checked in and quite simply given a room key (no introduction). Walls not soundproof at all, could hear banging doors lots! No privacy in the room - curtains had to be closed as no netting to pull across. Mould in the bathroom and dirty crockery in the room (only 1 glass). Only soup spoons - no normal spoons! Would avoid at all costs and won’t be returning!

Room size was great. Very clean. Didn't like no staff on-site when fire alarm went off.

Excellent value and well presented, generous sized room.

Room was ok, bathroom mouldy

The dilapidated state of the exterior set the scene for what was to come with lichen growing on the signs, weeds in the guttering and all through the driveway, etc. Reception was no better, being met with a grille closed over the counter, a phone on which you could leave a message but was never answered and multiple surveillance cameras. The unit was no better. Mouldy curtains, a dripping tap, shower screen that a cleaning product had not been near for ages, blood spots on the sheets are examples of what greeted us. While furniture was adequate, other facilities were not. Two thimbles of milk were insufficient for two people for afternoon and morning, there was no dish cloth or detergent, no kitchen plug, no plates or knives, and only one small cake of soap for both hand basin and shower, and near empty toilet roll and tissues. The only reason for actually staying was that the room had to be paid for in full at the time of booking! West Coast businesses have been quick to say that New Zealanders need to visit and spend our money there to help them recover from the effect of the pandemic. Rather than just expecting this as an entitlement, I put it to them that they need to get their act together and offer a product that is deserving of our patronage.

There had obviously been a bit of an issue in the room we were in and the mould along the bottom of the curtain confirmed it as did the damp carpet. The advertised restaurant was non-existent because they could not get staff (but it was advertised). The shower seemed clean and was certainly grunty, but then the shower door fittings and all ledges were paru with grotty looking 'stuff'. Terrible acoustics - clearly heard all conversations in the hallway. Really dissappointing.

If I could give zero stars I would. Bedding stained & smelled dirty & unwashed. Shower inexplicably ran scalding hot then icy cold. Paper thin walls where you can hear E.V.E.R.T.H.I.N.G. You get what you pay for and this is a lesson learned for us. A definite never again.

Big room. Comfortable bed. A little out of town. Wifi not great in room.

The outside lights were on all night so yhe room was not dark , and some sort of pump or refrigerator unit kept coming on throughout the night, but the place was clean and comfortable.

Room is clean and spacious, including working kitchen with everything needed to prepare meals, and a big bathroom. Friendly staff. Worth mentioning that the motel is located between the highway and a train line, which can be noisy at times.

The television did not work, room dated and bed was lumpy

Excellent value and well presented, generous sized room.

Room had a very musty smell, and the bed was not at comfortable

Rooms big and warm, big bathroom

“Hotel” left without staff present. No security. Front door left wide open. Fire alarm rang and woke us. It was pouring rain outside & we were to evacuate. Tried to find some contact information but finally called the fire department. Did not sleep well and staff that arrived on scene had no answers in morning. No restitution of any kind was offered for a sleepless night.

I needed a heart stent put in and management would not let me try another date. Expedia tried to help and could not. I just needed a few days. I am here in NZ now and out of 14 air bnbs and motels and hotels this was the only place that refused to help me.

The best receptionist ever!

Clean and tidy room, good parking the one and only staff member that checked us in was excellent.

Très bien. Accueil chaleureux. Merci Very good. Heartwarming welcome. Thanks

Owner provide convenience to visitors, for example, providing power converter. It's a very quiet and peaceful place to stay. Room is clean.

Went to check in after 2pm room was not ready had to go away and come back

Great price. Exceptional service

Room size was great. Very clean. Didn't like no staff on-site when fire alarm went off.

Would not recommend booking this property if you are planning on traversing hooker valley track as instead of 27km away from this property as stated on their website it is a 6 hr drive as you need to go around the mountain. Property does not take the phone and neither answers emails.

Lovely country living

The property is new and clean. The service is excellent. There looks like a future space for a restaurant . That will help because town centre is a drive away. Therefore they need to look at kitchenette facilities in rooms. You need more than a kettle. Please supply a toaster and microwave! You have the room to do so. Your generous size kitchen sink needs hot water! Improve your kitchen and you will be top stars.

Sehr einsam und abgelegen, nur 3 Zimmer vermietet und Eingangstür offen. Service gab es leider keinen. Auch kein Supermarkt in der Nähe.Kühlschrank, Wasserkocher und Tassen sowie Gläser auf dem Zimmer sowie Tee und Kaffee.

I found this Hotel by chance on my way back from exploring the local Lake. it is not in the town but out in the courtry.

Lovely location just out of town Great room

Beautiful area, close to Fox Glacier, very nice walks at close range

Didnot like this hotel at all. Our room smelt very damp and musty. The reception lady sprayed some smelly around and that lasted 5 mins. Said there was a restaurant and that wasnt operating. Only 2 rooms were being used. The garden and grounds were very unkept. Wouldn't stay here again.
