羅帕提尼斯住宿加早餐旅館(Ropatinis Bed & Breakfast)

Positives: - Location: very close to Lake Matheson and slightly away from town centre (still within walking distance) - Friendly and knowledgeable hosts - Breakfast was excellent with a good selection of food (eaten in a dining room with the view of Mt Cook). Take away muffins were a lovely touch. - Mini fridge in the room, kettle and complementary tea/coffee - Large bathroom (toiletries provided) - Electric blankets on the bed - Free WiFi - Lot of farm animals wanting to interact with the guests Negatives: - Heater in the room was a little noisy - Room a little small for a longer stay

While planning our trip and subsequently looking for a nice accommodation on the west coast of the South Island, we came across this beautiful accommodation by chance. Trish and Collin are simply the best hosts we met during our New Zealand tour. The accommodation was clean and in a very quiet location. It is also an unbeatable starting point for the numerous activities in the Fox Glacier area. From our hosts Trish & Collin we received well-founded and very helpful tips for our activities, enjoyed an extraordinarily delicious breakfast with always freshly prepared fruit, drinks, very good coffee, even delicious farm-eggs prepared on request/any style. As if that wasn't enough to keep us happy, we enjoyed probably the best panoramic view of the nearby mountains from the breakfast table. We were also allowed to admire Teddy's (dog) art pieces. All in all, it was an unforgettably beautiful stay (unfortunately too short with only 2 nights). Therefore, we can unreservedly recommend this accommodation and its hosts! Many thanks again to Trish & Collin.
