Distinction Te Anau Hotel & Villas

The front desk staff went above and beyond to accommodate us. After a long, sleepless journey from Queenstown to Te Anau on New Year’s Day, we arrived much earlier than expected, completely exhausted. With Queenstown fully booked on New Year's Eve, we had no choice but to sleep in our car, making us even more eager for a proper bed. Though check-in wasn’t until 3 PM, the staff, upon hearing our situation, made it a priority to have our room cleaned as quickly as possible. Incredibly, we were able to check in by 10 AM, an absolute lifesaver. That sleep? Hands down, the best of my life. Thank you!

I received a call from staff to advise that due to renovations underway that the room I had reserved would not be available. I was offered an alternative room that was an upgrade which I accepted. The room was really comfortable and away from any noise associated with the renovations. We were extremely happy with this room. The staff were excellent in all aspects of the hotel that we used, reception, bar and dining room, I would definitely stay there again.

The location is great, right at the lake and walking distance to anywhere. It is a big hotel and offers family rooms which for us was great - 2 bedroom villa for a family. The villa was spacious and very clean, it had everything we needed. The beds were very comfy. They have an outdoor pool which is heated to 25 degrees I believe and a sauna inside which needs booking. There is a nice restaurant inside the hotel which looks out to the lake and serves very nice food.

Superb location, right opp the Lake. Each room has 2 double bed. Supermarket is 5 mins walk, Real NZ tour depart is 5 mins walk.

Staff were very pleasant even though the Hotel was an older style it was very roomy and comfortable, the included breakfast was so fresh and yummy and a large selection. Very close to the town and easy access to grabbing a tour the lake view was suberb.
