The room is not big, the location is excellent, facing the lake view, the snow-capped mountains against the Manapuri Lake is like a fairyland. Stayed for four days, reluctant to leave. The pier to Doubtful Sound is nearby, and walking along the lake is the ultimate enjoyment. Wan Lai was all quiet, except for the sound of the lake beating against the shore. Personally, I think this place is better than Queenstown because there are few people and the commercial atmosphere is not so obvious. Driving to Lake Te Anau is only over 20 kilometers.

Warm, spacious, clean and comfortable. The bed was the most comfortable I've had on this trip, the heat pump had the room toasty on arrival. Kitchenette was perfect and had everything I needed to cook a meal. Gorgeous view of the lake and town, very close to the bird sanctuary and and easy walk to the centre. Feels separate from the holiday park and a really good value for money deal.

We stayed in our hired campervan for 3 nights. It is a very clean and well maintained site with nice views over the lake, a 15 minute walk from the facilities of Te Anau. The shower blocks are very clean and warm and well equipped with hairdryers etc. Staff were extremely knowledgeable and helpful, for example for our walk to the Kepler Track nearby, and in booking a Milford Sound Cruise for us at no extra cost.

We travel very often and can honestly say we have never been welcomed so friendly and treated so great. Although an older building, it was very clean and welcoming. Room was very spacious with a small living area. Coffee station and toiletries was very good. We had a room with a reasonable lake view. We had to do some laundry while there. It was so easy in huge machines. We stayed there on by birthday and was treated with a lovely breakfast. Although a small selection, it was extremely tasty and freshly made. We wanted to stay for breakfasts on other mornings but could not as we had to leave early. Thank you so much for an awesome stay. Will be back again.

Lakeside Apartments Motel, Te Anau, 16-17 Jul and 26-27 Aug 22. Reception was fast and met expectations. The room was large as booked. While the size is reasonable compared to many others, and includa kitchenette and bathroom. The entry sliding doors overlook Lake Te Anau. A beautiful setting. The bathroom was good and had a separate shower and bath. Everything was clean and in working condition. Wifi worked well and is complimentary. Location is very good, and right on Lake Te Anau. It's about 10-15 minutes pleasant walk to the town centre. The views to the lake and mountains are beautiful, especially when covered by snow. The heater works well and the bed has an electric blanket for a very warm bed in the cold weather. Overall a very good experience and happy to stay here again. Thank you. 

The hotel is not by the lake, at the corner of the road, about 5 minutes walk to the lake. It was opened by a Chinese couple. After so many days, there was a Chinese-speaking front desk. The owner was very friendly. Cars are parked in the hotel for free. Milk was delivered upon check-in. The room is large and has a kitchen, so you can fry and cook your own food. The bed is 1.8 meters, bath products, hair dryer, kettle, microwave oven, stove, towels, no slippers, toothpaste and toothbrush, the room is clean, there is a heater, you can turn on your own heating. Not far from the supermarket by car, not far from the visitor center, the freshchoise supermarket here is quite large and has a wide variety The hotel does not include breakfast, you will leave after you eat bread and check out at 10 o’clock on time

Wonderful motel, clean, comfortable, and quiet! Lovely decor, felt like a luxury hotel room! We loved it. The staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. We needed to do laundry, they happily gave us the change needed and showed us the laundry and soap. So convenient. It was a very short walk to the lakefront and downtown. We would heartily recommend to everyone!

Great location, with lovely views of the lake. We stayed for 2 nights either side of a Milford sound day trip. Well worth travelling to Te Anau to do the trip from there, rather than from Queenstown. The hostel has all the amenities that you need including kitchen, shared storage, fridge, etc. Very clean room. Great base to explore Fjordland. Happy to recommend.
