I had low expectations of this motel having stayed at a Queenstown hotel the night before, but couldn’t believe how fantastic this place was! Great layout and facilities and immaculately clean! We didn’t meet any staff but they left us very friendly notes to explain why they weren’t available and to ensure we had everything we needed

Stayed here a few times and this room ( superior / upgraded rooms) was a lot fresher than the Standard one. Te anau is a very seasonal place and so the premium prices in peak hiking season may seem off comparing against property elsewhere. Great thing that it has a nice bed ( I like medium firm), shower, and the location is perfect for a lakefront stroll. Unfortunately the last few nights stayed there had been not reception team on deck but a friendly message that they’re short staffed. I understand, but I hope you find a team one day soon.

No staff on site when we checked in but they had made arrangements for us to get into our room. Luckily we had no issues that required help from staff. The one thing that should be addressed is a plumbing issue that creates a bad smell in the room (the kitchenette sink did not have a p-trap so smells from the pipes were escaping into the room when the drain stopper was removed.

I reminded Hotels.com so many times that Edgewater didn’t fulfil the stay. They cancelled our booking with the reason that the villa wasn’t in a good state. Then we were transferred twice abd ended up in lakeview, which in my opinion was a downgrade I had been asking hotels.com for a cost delta No body, nobody from Hotels.com or Edgewater responded to me

Great location. Updated rooms.

We stayed one night at the Edgewater Motel on our way to visit Milford Sound in March 2024. At the time we were at the hotel, we saw no one in reception. An envelope taped to the door of the office explained how to find the key. (We had prepaid an internet booking.) However, we got into our rooms and were quite pleased. Our unit appeared to have been very recently update. Although the basic layout is a little odd--the only door is a sliding glass door that opens onto the parking lot/driveway. Very nice decor. Loved the chic bathroom. Beds were very comfortable. The kitchenette was wonderful, although it lacked a stovetop. There was, however, an electric fry pan, which we used to prepare breakfast. The location is great--close to the center of town and right on the lake, as the name suggests.
