貝亞維斯塔法蘭茲約瑟夫汽車旅館(Bella Vista Motel Franz Josef Glacier)

Nice host

Great place to stay! Very close to city center and any restaurant or supermarket. Great host, they have us so many good suggestions. Recommended 100%

Checked in late night and the staff left a memo with check in instructions on the office door. Nice view from the room

Drove across from Christchurch to Franz Josef Village. This little motel room had all the basics, plus a single element portable stove and a large sunbeam fry pan. Great for little meals to assist with the costs. Off street parking. Walking distance to everything in the village. Short drive to Franz Josef Glacier. The hotel manager was informative and helpful with local advice. After a wet first day, we awoke the following morning to see ice on the mountains from our motel door. Guest laundry available.

Franz Josef is a small modern village. It’s a few minutes walk from the Bella Vista motel to the restaurant, Four Square and DOC information centre. Lovely view from our room to the snow covered mountain peaks. We were told a family of Kea visit a big tree outside and we heard them next morning before sunrise. Our room was clean and comfortable.

We stayed at the Bella Vista some years ago and found it a great place. With that in mind we booked the same motel again. What a mistake! The room, though clean, stank. No idea what it was but it kept me awake and made me feel 🤢. The following day my husband bought some bathroom cleaner to pour down the drains. This helped a little. The next day a man physically opened the drains to try an sort the problem. A slight improvement was the result. The kitchen tap is not secure and swings about. The motel WiFi didn’t work. To be fair, this could have been location/ reception. On a positive note, there was a warm welcome and the staff are very helpful and friendly. DVDs are available to borrow from reception. The bed was extremely comfortable. Bella Vista, it is time for a refit.

Très bel hôtel très bien située. Si vous ne possédez pas de voiture il y a un service de shuttle près de l’hôtel qui peut vous emmener au glacier Franz Joseph ou au glacier Fox. Très pratique

위치도 좋았고 직원들도 모두 친절함.
