Lake Tekapo Luxury Lodge

Member Rating: ** 2.0 | Rate It

Fodor's Review:

Top New Zealand craftsmen created this luxurious, earth-brick complex, whose arresting decor competes for attention with the stunning views of Lake Tekapo and the Southern Alps. Arched, studded antique church doors open into a beamed entrance area where fine art mixes with farming paraphernalia. Wrought-iron embellishments run throughout the building, with most furnishings made of oak or elm. The front rooms open out to a covered veranda, the garden, and the best views.

Overpriced rooms, lousy service

Posted by snarfless from Australia on 11/25/08
Do abit more research on the web on this place and you will find most people did not enjoy their stay there. Unwelcoming host, you can't come and go from the front entrance have to use the little side door, shared balconies, small rooms, and generally really bad experience.

Room: 2.0 Atmosphere: 3.0 Service: 1.0 Value: 2.0 RATING: 2.0
