The location was convenient and close to local restaurants and attractions. The cooked breakfast was a great bonus. The fan helped cool the room from the late afternoon sun.

The lady at the reception was amazing, very kind, always smiling and always here to make things convenient.
The place was big, quiet and very convenient location.
Comodities was very good and the place very clean.
We slept so well, that we booked again Bella Vista in Wanaka.
The little plus, thanks for the tissues, we appreciated the gesture 😁

Fox Glacier is quite stunning, walk is relatively easy to first viewing point, we didn't get any further due to bad weather. Lovely eating places in town and a grocery store. Quite a small town so very quiet. We weren't there long enough to really explore the area

As a hiker I loved the lakes walks, and also the glacier lookout walk would have been great but the weather on that day was just too wet to complete. The lake Matheson cafe is a lovely place after a hike or good breakfasts beforehand. The town is limited, so if I wasn’t a hiker I would only have stayed a night and moved on.

There are several interesting walks to the glacier, lake etc. The helicopter to the glacier itself can be booked easily from the town. There are a number of good restaurants within easy walking distance. A overnight stay is all that is required to see & do everything.

We did the short tramp to Fox Glacier.
We did the short tramp to Fox Glacier. It’s totally worth the effort.
It’s only 30min drive to Franz Joseph where we tramped the 5 hr Roberts Point track. Reasonably arduous tramp, but again totally worth the effort.

Beautiful cosy cottage managed by lovely host. Situated very close to fox glacier and provides some exllelant views of mountain ranges. Its a small farm with little garden all around the cottages, provides glimpse of local life. To top it all hostess serves excellent home backed cakes, breads in beautifully decorated dining area with exotic items over lovely conversations.
Had amazing stay there, felt our stay was too short.
Heartland Hotel Glacier Country is conveniently located at State Highway 6 and close to the Fox Glacier and a number of cafes/restaurants. We did a Mt Cook and Fox Glacier flight with snow landing with a company almost next door to the hotel and it was a fantastic experience.
The hotel is just about 30 minutes drive from the Franz Josef glacier and about 5km from Lake Matheson, which has a very good Fox Glacier lookout.
We had two nights in two separate rooms. Both were clean and comfortable. The first night we did have some noise from the room above, who took showers and stomped around until midnight. The second night however was super peaceful and was more private. A great location to visit Fox Glacier, would stay again.
We were so welcomed from the beginning of our stay and we felt right at home. We were able to use the kitchen freely to cook. The lodge is walking distance to the Fox Glacier tour. Free glo-worm tours in the evening — I would highly recommend this lodge to anyone visiting, 10/10
Room was clean and spacious. Iron and board, pedestal fan and heater, plenty of storage. Usual kitchen utensils and bathroom toiletries. Free milk on arrival.
Great location for exploring Fox Glacier, local shop and eateries within walking distance.
The location was great - very close to Fox Glacier township but quite rural and very quiet. Spectacular views to the mountains! An extensive and really good breakfast and our hosts, Trish and Colin, were friendly, with good advice and suggestions.
This Backpackers lodge would be the one to buy has location all the Basic's are there plenty of power points etc. Just a little run down.
A bit of paint and new carpet etc tidy up outside and it will be away again.
We only had an 1-night stay as a short stop over and it had everything we needed. The kids loved the fun bikes and going into the hot pools. Fox Glacier/Frans Joseph is a beautiful area. Great playground for kids.
Comfortable room, very friendly and helpful staff, and quiet since it is slightly off the main road. The hotel bar and restaurant is also good value and welcoming. I'll definitely stay again next time.
A wonderful spot to stay in Fox Glacier. Comfortable beds and rooms and plenty of toilets and showers. The kitchen was decently big and several places to sit in groups or alone.
A great place to stay. Very clean and well appointed rooms. Friendly and welcoming owner who gave us some great tips on what to do in Fox Glacier.
Highly recommend the place
