The location was convenient and close to local restaurants and attractions. The cooked breakfast was a great bonus. The fan helped cool the room from the late afternoon sun.

The lady at the reception was amazing, very kind, always smiling and always here to make things convenient.
The place was big, quiet and very convenient location.
Comodities was very good and the place very clean.
We slept so well, that we booked again Bella Vista in Wanaka.
The little plus, thanks for the tissues, we appreciated the gesture 😁

Fox Glacier is quite stunning, walk is relatively easy to first viewing point, we didn't get any further due to bad weather. Lovely eating places in town and a grocery store. Quite a small town so very quiet. We weren't there long enough to really explore the area

As a hiker I loved the lakes walks, and also the glacier lookout walk would have been great but the weather on that day was just too wet to complete. The lake Matheson cafe is a lovely place after a hike or good breakfasts beforehand. The town is limited, so if I wasn’t a hiker I would only have stayed a night and moved on.

There are several interesting walks to the glacier, lake etc. The helicopter to the glacier itself can be booked easily from the town. There are a number of good restaurants within easy walking distance. A overnight stay is all that is required to see & do everything.

We did the short tramp to Fox Glacier.
We did the short tramp to Fox Glacier. It’s totally worth the effort.
It’s only 30min drive to Franz Joseph where we tramped the 5 hr Roberts Point track. Reasonably arduous tramp, but again totally worth the effort.
We were welcomed warmly upon check-in an provided a map and suggested must do’s including Lake Matheson (shame café was closed) and the Fox Glacier lookout further on. We were also recommended the Glow Worm walk which we did later that evening. Room was great and we shared a kitchen with two other rooms. The kitchen had everything we needed. While Fox is a small place, Ivory Towers is perfectly located to what amenities there are, and it was very convenient for the Fox Glacier Gliding experience (excellent BTW).
Heartland Hotel Glacier Country is conveniently located at State Highway 6 and close to the Fox Glacier and a number of cafes/restaurants. We did a Mt Cook and Fox Glacier flight with snow landing with a company almost next door to the hotel and it was a fantastic experience.
The hotel is just about 30 minutes drive from the Franz Josef glacier and about 5km from Lake Matheson, which has a very good Fox Glacier lookout.
very clean, warm and spacious room! bed was comfortable. good location, close to petrol stations, fox glacier, lake Matheson and nearby restaurants. owner recommended Betsey Jane for dinner - it was amazing (- we had the steak & pumpkin soup) highly recommended! also had free glow worm tour at night. wished we stayed at this lodge for longer!
Our second visit there. Great view of the sunset last year. This year, the clouds covered the sunset we were looking forward to. But we had glimpses of the wildlife-a kekeru was feeding on a tree when we just checked in.
Location offered us privacy but very near to Fox Glacier activity center. Short drive to Lake Matheson.
Where you can park for free and park right in front of the motel. Location is awesome! Close to all the sight seeing places and restaurants. The owners are attentive to our needs. The view from the backyard and front yard are awesome. The fresh milk for our coffee was an added bonus. Fox Glacier is awesome!
This place reminded me of a ski lodge in the US. It's was rustic but very comfy. The town is tiny and this is a great place to stay in town. We met several other couples at breakfast so that was fun. We had a large corner room that was great. They had a nice free glow work walk that left from the office at 9pm.
The hosts were fantastic, the comfortable, and the room immaculate! The included breakfast was superb and we were even given homemade lemon filled muffins on arrival! I cannot convey just how amazing this host is and how pleased we are with the stay. This was the BEST stay we have had in New Zealand!
The motel locates in the very good spot of Fox Glacier town.
The room is as good as always.
I have been there many times and the quality still remain.
Even the location is away out of town but reacheable.
You can walk to Fox Glacier town if you with but travelling by car is more convenience.
I want to give a special shout out to Matt for being so helpful with my booking for a helicopter ride out of Fox Glacier. Although things didn’t go as hoped in the end, it certainly wasn’t because he didn’t go above and beyond to try and I’m grateful for that.
Good place to stay in and very close to Fox Glacier and easy to get to Franz-Josef glacier. Room was comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. Also very close to beautiful Lake Matheson and amazing view point of Fox Glacier
Good location in Fox Glacier and suited our needs for a 1 night stay. Room was very clean and hosts easy to deal with. It had everything we needed and bed was very comfortable too,
A wonderful spot to stay in Fox Glacier. Comfortable beds and rooms and plenty of toilets and showers. The kitchen was decently big and several places to sit in groups or alone.
