You can't ask for a better location in Tekapo - it's literally a 2-minute walk across the Church of the Good Shepherd, and a 2-minute drive back into town for groceries, gas, coffee, and check-in/out. Lovely space, very comfortable bed, excellent kitchen set-up, super helpful manual, wonderful pair of recliners to watch some Netflix. The outdoor bath looks perfect for star-gazing, although sadly we had a cloudy night so didn't use it. Highly recommend waking up at sunrise to join the crowds taking pictures of the church -- not to be missed! Check-in and -out at the hotel office was easy (although self-check in with key pad would be much appreciated also). We drove up to Aoraki Mount Cook after checking out and had an amazing day up there.
