We enjoyed our villa stay. Room was dated but the bathroom was nice and the room was clean. The pool and shared areas were a bit run down but we hadn’t planned to use them anyway. The breakfast was nice! Would stay here again

Stayed in one of the villas. The place was decently clean although we did find some utensils that had been left dirty from the previous person. Beds are comfortable enough but worn. Really nice new bathroom. Only a couple minute walk to the main road with all the stores and restaurants. Very friendly staff. Buffet is great and worth it.

A nice hotel, quiet rooms with plenty of space, bit disappointed we had to ask at the end of the day why our room hadn’t been serviced when we came back from a days walking, just to have more milk, coffee etc. breakfast and bar staff excellent would definitely recommend a stay as the position of the hotel is fabulous

The Distinction Te Anau Hotel and Villa was located in a great location. The rooms were a bit outdated but they were very clean. There was no a/c but we did get a fan that was great and could cool us down at night. We used the laundry facilities. The food both breakfast and dinner was really good.

Old and musky room yet spacious and comfortable. Mattress was springy! Bathroom is tiny and very outdated. Sauna was good but spa was filthy! Breakfast was lovely, appreciated the egg station. Location is great, overlooking the lake. Overall, not worth the super expensive price tag.

We loved our stay! Had been there many years ago and as charming as ever. Room overlooked lake and beds were comfortable. Excellent Christmas Day buffet. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Te Anu which is much more convenient to Milford and Doubtful Sound than Queenstown.

Pros - Excellent check in and checkout, great service and breakfast was superb!! If you go for the buffet breakfast option, it's very good and everything is on there. Cons - villa was dark and dingey and despite most of the villas being empty we were placed as far away from reception as you could get and right next to a family. Wine glass had a lipstick mark on it. I expect better than this for the price but everywhere else was booked so this accommodation gets those of us that are desperate and stupid with our money.

The villa option was a great way to be with family at a better cost that 2 rooms. More comfortable as well. I did 4 stars for condition ONLY because it's a bit older property and parts were a bit worn, but the rooms were impeccable as were the dining and other amenities. Perfect location as well. A great place to stay.
