Guest reviews for Aorangi Motel
Central location. Outdated room and facilities. Basic amenifies available. No air conditioning or fans and rooms were quite uncomfortably hot.

Thank you for your review, We do not advertise that we have air conditioning and there are fans in the wardrobes of the bedroom in all units. Most of our travellers find our rooms very well equipt., clean and comfortable
I am disappointed with the lodge, it's a very old lodge, plus there is no shower gel in the bathroom, made me feel stressed.

Thank you for your review, yes it is older, built in the 1960's, but well kept and maintained. The shower gel is in a dispenser on the shower wall, unsure how you missed that, there is also shampoo sachets on the face cloths in the bathroom.

Thank you :)
Two night stay.
Pros:
Quiet, great staff with usual South Island friendly manner.
Cons:
REally due for re-furbishment, which is planned.
Location:
Burkes Pass - American Wild West replica village, complete with various memorabilia. Great timber furniture with quirky designs. Mt John Observatory.
Walking distance to local shop (s). A good base to explore the area - Lake Tekapo / District

Thank you for your review, and glad you enjoyed the your days trips to tekapo etc. The Burkes Pass gallery is a great wee stop too :) Trace :)
Nice hotel in a cute country town
Greeted by friendly staff, the rooms were spacious, unlimited wifi was handy given the lack of tv reception and the room was very warm in the cold weather. The hotel was close to the centre on the town of Fairlie and was a great over night stop.
