Great clean place, pricy for a motel but unmatched lakeside view of the lake and the glacier behind. It’s easy to walk out to the lake at night to see the stars and directly across the parking lot from dark sky.
As others had mentioned the included western breakfast option (eggs and toast) were pretty horrible - McDonald’s style reheated eggs on thin under-toasted white bread. The Chinese meat and noodle soup breakfast looked delicious but noticed too late to ask if that was included in the room voucher.

Excellent location. Walking distance to Lake Tekapo and Church of Good Shepherd
Parking full, need to park nearby (though couldn't understand why carpark was full, given each apartment has its own parking lot).
Shower compartment not tight shut. Could case flooding in bathroom. Else all is great

The highlight was the stunning lake view from our room, a beautiful sight to wake up each morning.
However, I was dissapointed by the comfort room which had a persistent unpleasant smell that that distracted the overall comfort of our stay.
Their big breakfast offered was a real treat. The comfort room issue is something the hotel should address for a pleasant experience.

Overall had everything we required for our night stay. Clean and tidy. A nice view of the lake from our balcony. However the exterior veranda light coming through the frosted glass door was very annnoying and it couldn’t be switched off plus it didn’t help that the heater in our room worked really too well. We couldn’t regulate or turn it off so we tried to let outside air flow into the room which was hard the night we stayed because it was raining and the rain would blow into the room. Thankfully there was a ceiling fan which helped a bit but our disturbed nights sleep was very hot and uncomfortable. Couldn’t advise anyone in the morning as office was unattended when we checked out.

Location location location. Parked up the car and walked. Walked to the lake, walked to the church, walked to the supermarket, the shops, the restaurants. And the sunrise over the mountains and lake, beautiful.
