Absolutely loved our stay at the Grand Suites. The rooms were spacious and we had a stunning view of the lake. Clean and modern, we felt so comfortable here. Can't fault it. Check in was easy and the host was friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommend staying here.

The hotel itself is beautiful and my room was superb. Very spacious and had been very updated. Luxurious room and bathroom with a kitchenette and views of the lake and mountains. Also it is in walking distance to the village and waterfront, which is good. One good perk was a laundry room with free detergent though you need coins to use the machines. Overall I would have loved an extra night in this hotel as it was very nice and comfortable. My one issue was with unfriendly staff.

This place was perfect. It had the lake view of Lake Tekapo, and an accessible door to walk straight out to the lake. It was directly across the bridge and had the most scenic view. The room was spacious. Loved the heated restroom floors and towel heaters. It was so close to the food area and gas station, about a 5 minute walk. Love the accessibility to everything. The staff was extremely helpful with the checkin. Couldnt have had a much easier experience.
