The staff was friendly and helpful. The check in was very easy. It was a great location for our activities. We were not expecting anything special and that is what we got so we were fine with the stay over all. It is a cabin after all.

Close to main road so easy to find but far enough away as not to be noisy at night.

It's a nice place for hiking/visiting Aoraki/Mount Cook national park. While it's about 45 minute drive from the park it's much less expensive than staying in the park. The Mountain Chalets Motel is well maintained and has a full kitchen.

DO NOT STAY HERE ON A MONDAY
The motel unit was fantastic and cozy. Had 3 single bed in the upstairs and a queen down stairs. Was nice and tidy. However the town really disappointed us. On mondays apparently everything is closed. We got in at 8 and there was no food establishment open so we had to skip dinner. But the room nonetheless was great! So defiantly stay here but just not on a Monday.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The place was spacious and quiet. Even though it did get cold at night, I was fine with their comfy blanket and electric mattress pad. Definitely recommend it!

The room was sunny and quiet, and I was able to stay comfortably. However, it was unfortunate that there was bird droppings in the room.I guess it can't be helped since they had the windows open for ventilation.

Unique experience, we were generally happy with the night we spent there. Only downside was the sink tap in toilet, should install a mixer as it was hard to wash with 2 taps(hot/very cold).

The shower water pressure needs to improve, and the shower drain needs to be looked at as it drains away very slowly.
