Confusion in the booking process, the TV (Google) not working and a leaky tap were annoying. Otherwise, the Alpenhorn is comfortable enough without any frills.

great location, great room, would totally stayagai

loved the motel. great lication, great room, goid size with a tiny, but sufficient kitchen, great space for sitting area. since it was off-season, it was self check in, but when I called the number to confirm we were leaving luggage in storage for a few days (while we were tramoing the Milford Track) as agreed ahead of time, the owner answered on the first & only call & took care of it. the room was clean both times we stayed. loved it. only complaint is the laundry room could use a clean. maybe not once a day, but like once every few months maybe. The one washer & dryer both worked great, but that room needs a vaccuum especially the multy-layer of cobwebs all over.

Very old, run down and desperately needed a clean. Broken curtain rail, sheets too small for the bed, had to rewash coffee cups etc. 3 star is a stretch, absolutely not worth the $180 per night

We will never stay here again or tell our friends to stay here, because they advertised a Queen size bed but they failed to mention that it was two single ensembles joined together by a large zip right down the middle of the bed making it very uncomfortable to get a good night's sleep. It collapsed in the middle. A very dated room, needs a face lift and way overpriced for what we received.

The property is well priced and conveniently located however the room was not adequately cleaned/vacuumed and is very outdated. All dishes and kitchen pans had to be washed before using as they were not clean. Beds not great. The kitchen was however well outfitted. Toilet was very clean and the linens were soft and fresh/clean. Shower door leaked water over the floor and the shower had some mold patches on the floor. There was no staff on site, key was left taped to the door when we arrived at 4:00 p.m. This was the most disappointing accommodation we have yet experienced during our New Zealand trip.

Good choice for Te Anau

Alphnorn is on a residential street that also has several other small motels. It is a short walk (using a cut-through) to the lake front and not far to restaurants and shopping, We appreciated having a kitchenette and separate bedroom. The front office was not open during the time we were there, but the keys were left for us and a note on the door gave a phone number to call if needed.

I didnt like anything. It was old and outdated. Stains all over carpet. Took us three phone calls to get onto someone to advise we would be arriving late. Then the key was put in an envelope and attached to the reception door. With everyone else's keys.
