We agree with previous guests positive comments about the warm and friendly welcome, cleanliness, kitchen facilities etc. In particular we thought the plants and flowers were delightful. However we thought it was way too expensive for what it was. For comparison our previous stay was in Wanaka in more spacious and very high quality accommodation with easy access to excellent local amenities and the cost was little more than half that charged here. Our following night, in a Five Star hotel in Christchurch, cost less than the Tekapo charge. No doubt there is a shortage of accommodation in Tekapo and market forces apply. We therefore wouldn't choose to stay in Tekapo on any future visit.
