We mainly chose Airport Gateway Motor Lodge because we were on a flight the next day and the motel provided shuttle service to the nearby airport. All rooms had kitchenette and living room so it was very comfortable, except for the very weird doors. We had a wonderful dinner in the very popular adjoining restaurant that night and that was definitely a plus.
I only stayed one night, perfectly suited for what I needed. Cooking faculties good, bed nice and comfy. Free parking in motel car park. Good location, could walk to Caroline Bay penguin viewing spot, and also could walk to town centre and restaurants. Good sound proofing, it’s in the main road but could barely hear traffic. Staff very nice too.
Wonderful friendly receptionist who freely gave helpful information regarding activities and dining. Plus the Motel had great tourist handouts re sights etc in the area and on the road .
Very central location , shocking road works in the area at the moment but car could get into the motel easily enough. Clean and warm with a very comfortable bed in our studio unit. Free parking
Beautiful, clean, modern hotel room. Comfy bed. Super friendly staff. Limited off street parking, but also some free parking on the road outside the hotel.
Location excellent to location of Southern Cross hospital but also central to other facilities. Free parking. Rooms small but perfect for a couple especially with separate bedroom. Although an older motel, very well kept. Would stay again.
This is a decent motel just on the edge of Fox Glacier Town about 6 kms from Lake Matheson on the road to the Glacier Viewpoint and as a result its location suited us fine. It's handy for the town but we were self catering. There's just enough in the kitchenette to do this successfully but there's only 2 of everything. The room was comfortable, the bathroom adequate - what you'd expect in a standard motel though there were some good quality toiletries to make a bit of a difference. Staff were helpful.
It was very modern and clean. Wonderful view & well stocked kitchen for the guests. Although there were limited parks at the hostel, there was plenty of free parking on the road
Free parking available at the motel premises. There is a mall right across the street and plenty of shops within walking distance. The room is cosy and comes with a small kitchen for us to heat some meals. Convenient check-out by simply dropping the key into a Key Box. There is a common laundry for guest to use at a very small fee ($1~$4 if I'm not mistaken).
First impressions weren't great, its an old building. But the rooms are clean, the bed and its linen are superb, theres nothing not to like. The wc and shower were spotless . I had a drink on the bar and also ate there the Sea food platter was absolutely amazing, so much food for a really great price. The overall menu looked to have many choices. (there seemed to be quite a few meals collected throughout the evening). Free parking on the road directly at the front of the hotel.
