traveller –
One week into our New Zealand holiday. The scenery has been magnificent albeit drizzly weather. The last 2 nights saw snowfall on The Remarkables and surrounding mountains – what a bonus!!! We have been surrounded by snow-capped mountains all the way into Te Anau today – absolutely beautiful.
I am writing to thank you so much for your choice of accommodation to date.
The room in Te Anau is 5-star with fabulous views to the lake and mountains. A definite surprise is being able to watch TV while in the bath 🙂
Queenstown room (#421) had views over the lake and mountains and nicely fitted out.
Franz Josef was a little below par, however was comfortable and clean.
Christchurch was good location and no problem with late check-in.
Cheers,
Cheryl
