The location is convenient, the hotel manager helped me in time, the bed is very comfortable, there are microwaves, electric stoves, ovens, tableware, pots, everything you need, the security is very good, and there are two handsome dogs. I like it here very much and will choose here next time. by the way, next to a delicious restaurant, it’s great!
Fox Glacier is a very small township with a number of motels and the Rainforest was on par with the competition on appearance and location. There is nothing flash about this motel, but it served the purpose as it was clean and cosy.
Spacious room so you dont feel boxed in, plus the bathroom has a big shower stall which makes showering more enjoyable. 2 minute walk to main street of Fox Glacier township, with cafes and pubs. Well kept grounds, and friendly dogs belonging to the gardener. This is a pet friendly motel so we stayed with our shih tzu who loved it.
Great location, just off the state highway with great views of the rainforest all around. The unit was spacious with a seperate lounge area and well equipped kitchen. The host was very friendly ( including the resident dog Stella) and helped us with some great tips to make the most of the day we had in fox.
The motel is superb clean. Cooking facilities is excellent. Location is easy to find. You really feel welcome by the owner or the pets keep by the owner. The cat and the dog will greet you at the reception area. Place is quite at night. If you are lucky, you will see the Kea knocking at your door and pay you a visit.
The room was lovely and clean with everything required for a short stay. I loved that the location was a short walk into the township and just a short drive to Lake Matheson with fantastic views on the way and access to good viewpoints of Fox Glacier and Mount Cook. They're very dog friendly which was a big bonus for me. On my leaving day the rain was intense so they kindly allowed me to stay a few more hours until it had subsided.
