8/10 Very good

Clean lodge, easy parking, basic kitchen but shared kitchen available next to lodge. We chose to make breakfast and packed lunches and the ate out in the evening. Intermittent WiFi but acceptable. Nice and warm and convenient location for a couple of nights. Quiet location close to the main Street, Cook and Saddle and Betty Jackson’s excellent for evening meal with teens. Added bonus was the glow worm tour from the lodge, very enjoyable.

Melissa, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

I think it's a nice enough place. It seemed more primitive with less heat. Combination motel and motorhome place. If it had been rated at an eight out of 10 I probably would have given it a higher rating.

Stay was good, room was nice. Only downside was that there wasn’t a fridge but may have been an oversight on my end. Otherwise very cute and cozy cabin style lodging. Would go back!

Highly recommend this hotel it was a very nice hotel after a long drive the room was roomy very clean and a pleasure to be in, one of the best within our three week trip

8/10 Very good

Good little place in the middle of nowhere. On site management is great, friendly, and provided an informative Glow-worm walk. We stayed in the king spa room, and was able to peruse the spa after a long day of walking so it was a nice touch. Could consider adding a little shelf for toiletries in the shower.
Sammie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed at the Fox Glacier Lodge for two evenings. The staff at the lodge were amazing. They went above and beyond to answer any of our questions about the town. At night time, they offered a free walk to see the glow worms which was just around the corner from the lodge.
