Hostels di West Coast, New Zealand

Our stay at Haka House Franz Josef was a great experience overall. The property has a lively, social atmosphere that makes it easy to meet fellow travellers, yet it still offers quiet corners for those who prefer downtime. The common areas are spacious and well-kept, with a cozy lounge and kitchen facilities that make self-catering simple. The location is excellent—right in the heart of Franz Josef, within walking distance to cafes, shops, and the glacier activities. The bunk room we stayed in was basic but clean, with comfortable beds but limited storage and stuffy! It’s easy to see why it’s such a popular spot in town.

Short drive to Lake Matheson and Fox Glacier view. Big and nice with shelter for car park right in front of the motel. Salt/pepper/rice cooker/bread toaster/milk/ basic utensils for cooking are provided. All is good except that towels aren’t changed daily.

The apartment we stayed in was quite new and felt pleasant. Rooms are quite spacious and clean. The Kitchen was new and well equiped. It’s in a small township near Fox Glacier. There was a view point, which was about a few minutes driver from the motel, where the view of the snow peaks and glacier was spectacular. It is also not far from Franz Joseph glacier.

When booking the motel, it was stated that it was for 4 adults. When I checked in, I found that there was only one room and a bunk bed in the living room, which was not very comfortable. In addition, the toilet is in the room, and someone will be woken up when going to the toilet at night. It is not suitable for more than 2 people to stay.

This hostel is of character, it's fairly close to the train station and the house lady is very kind and friendly. It was a really great stay for me 😉

We came here to stay by train. Although the motel is not very new, it has everything. There are supermarkets and daily necessities stores at the foot of the mountain. It takes about ten minutes to walk there. When the sidewalk is about to disappear, there is a trail connecting it in a hidden place, and you can walk to the parking lot of the grocery store. The hotel can pick you up at the train station, which is actually very suitable for people like us who have big luggage from overseas and don’t have a car. recommend

Location was perfect and quiet. Whatever in the room was adequate.

We got like a bungalow unit! It was excellent! We late for 5 min for checked in at night but the person in charged was still very friendly and waiting for us. And still served us welcome drinks (milk). yum yum. The car may just parked infront of the house. Super convenient! And the space in the house was superb! Like it very much and will deft go back again in the future.

The room and dining area are well-equipped. The only downside is that the two rooms are connected by a door that isn't soundproof. The people staying next door, who are from Guangdong, were talking very loudly, which was a bit noisy.

Amazing and comfortable stay. Attention to details and nice touches. Very clean and well thought amenities.
