Hostales en Costa occidental, Nueva Zelanda

Our stay at Haka House Franz Josef was a great experience overall. The property has a lively, social atmosphere that makes it easy to meet fellow travellers, yet it still offers quiet corners for those who prefer downtime. The common areas are spacious and well-kept, with a cozy lounge and kitchen facilities that make self-catering simple. The location is excellent—right in the heart of Franz Josef, within walking distance to cafes, shops, and the glacier activities. The bunk room we stayed in was basic but clean, with comfortable beds but limited storage and stuffy! It’s easy to see why it’s such a popular spot in town.

Short drive to Lake Matheson and Fox Glacier view. Big and nice with shelter for car park right in front of the motel. Salt/pepper/rice cooker/bread toaster/milk/ basic utensils for cooking are provided. All is good except that towels aren’t changed daily.

The apartment we stayed in was quite new and felt pleasant. Rooms are quite spacious and clean. The Kitchen was new and well equiped. It’s in a small township near Fox Glacier. There was a view point, which was about a few minutes driver from the motel, where the view of the snow peaks and glacier was spectacular. It is also not far from Franz Joseph glacier.

Everything was spot on, unit was beautifully clean and all were very friendly and helpful. Will stay again. Shirley & Richard

This is a quaint place set in a lovely old building, when I was there I believe I was the only person which was a plus but… the room was very cold as the heater turned on but only for 30 minutes at a time. The sheets had an off putting old type smell but I do believe they were clean. Overall a nicely themed place.

This accommodation is good for a 1 or 2 night stay. There are no restaurants within walking distance, but only a few minutes drive. Our room was clean, the beds not overly comfortable. Laundry room is available.

Such a spacious and lovely unit. Had everything that we needed and the spa bath was amazing!

We got like a bungalow unit! It was excellent! We late for 5 min for checked in at night but the person in charged was still very friendly and waiting for us. And still served us welcome drinks (milk). yum yum. The car may just parked infront of the house. Super convenient! And the space in the house was superb! Like it very much and will deft go back again in the future.

Desafortunadamente, nuestro cuarto estaba ocupado por otro invitado. La recepción ya estaba cerrada, pero se pudo contactar por teléfono. Se pudo aclarar y nos dio espontáneamente otra habitación, igual de grande. Pero la habitación tenía una puerta de conexión inviable a la habitación adyacente y tenía un olor como en un hogar de la casa de la casa. La ventilación en el baño era tan ruidosa que se volaba por toda la casa. Pero luego nos quedamos bien inesperados.

The hotel seems new and all the rooms were very clean. There was also a nice little kitchen and a spa bath tub, which we did not find the time to use. Special mention to the kind lady at the reception who was very helpful and informative. Thanks! We drove to visit the Fox Glacier Walk and the Lake Matheson Trail, which was about half an hour drive away. There were supermarkets nearby in case one planned to cook or dine in at the restaurants.
