Scenic Hotel Franz Josef Glacier
10/10 Excellent
"Initially our room bed wasn’t good but reception happily helped us to change the room. Operation manager was very nice and receptionist also understood the situation. Apart from the noise (obviously due to helicopters flying) everything was fine. Scenic hotel is upto my expectations due to such a great staff. I will go back for sure as my helicopter scenic trip got cancelled due to bad weather. Cheers "
