Awesome stay!
Loved this place! Phenomenal view overlooking the lake not too far away. It even has skylights with instructions for optimal star gazing! The staff was wonderful, we had to leave extra early (5am) and they even offered to pre-deliver a continental breakfast to us the night before since we would miss the regular breakfast. We could have sat the beautiful large window enjoying the view for days! Would definitely come back!

This is an ultramodern small hotel that is apparently brand new. The rooms are substantially sized — we stayed in a 2-bedroom unit on the first of the two floors and certainly had no problem with noise from above or from the sides. The hotel is in a quiet area up from the main road. The owners are very nice. And you get a breakfast included, with as many choices as you like (either in the reception area or brought to your room. Parking is close at hand, beds are super comfortable. You can cook in your room, but we’d recommend fish and chips at the little food wagon down near the water — Better Batter. We certainly highly recommend the Galaxy Boutique Hotel.

My family and I recently stayed at the Galaxy Boutique Hotel during our holiday on the South Island . All of us found the hotel to be very modern , clean and comfortable. The property was within easy walking distance of Lake Tekapo and great area dining options , and the staff at Galaxy Boutique were warm , welcoming and helpful throughout our stay . This hotel is a great option for anyone wishing to explore Aoraki National Park and surrounds , with the mountain located one hour driving distance from the hotel . We would rate Galaxy Boutique Hotel as a 10/10 for any travellers planning a visit to the Mackenzie region !
