  Very friendly staff, great sized room and comfy king size bed. Electric blankets were fantastic for the cold nights. Bathroom and rest of the room great sized and very clean. View from rooms was amazing. Walking distance to everything. Highly recommend.

  Arrived early and ended up with an upgrade. What fantastic rooms and friendly service from Billy. The huge king size bed, massive room and perfect view made this a spectacular stay even though it was just one night. Next time we will be staying longer.

  The motel is easily located about 50m off the State Highway.You can park your car right in front of each unit, making it very convenient to carry in/out of your bulky luggages. Room is quite spacious with nice mountain view. Facilities are simple but meets all basic needs. There's in-room kitchenware for light cooking use. Free wifi is also available. It's within walking distance to the main road of the village, where most of glacier travel agencies, supermarket and restaurants are located. Overall this motel is highly recommended with all mentioned good points with very reasonable price

  Although we stayed mainly in bed and breakfast places whilst touring New Zealand we chose the Alpine Glacier motel on this occasion as it is handily placed for visiting the Franz Joseph Glacier. It is relatively reasonably priced for a prime tourist area. The motel was full but reception staff were friendly and attentive both on arrival and departure. Our room (a deck studio) was spacious, comfortable, pleasantly furnished and decorated and had all that we needed for self-catering (which we did on this occasion). We had a distant view of the glacier from our deck. The motel's laundry facilities were good with no charge (and detergent provided) for use of the washer and only a small charge for use of the dryer. The motel is near the village centre so only a short walk to shops and restaurants but we found it to be quiet during our stay.

  This is a nice little motel at the center of the city. Most restaurants are about a five minute walk away. The rooms are quite large and are equipped with a kitchenette, fridge and a spacious bathroom. Most rooms offer a nice view of the mountains. There is also a parking space right outside the room.
