Good service and ammenities. Skylight in the second bedroom made it difficult to sleep as there wasn’t a blind. Pillows were plentiful but all were the same size and quite big, we prefer a flat pillow so didn’t have a great sleep.

Liked: Cleanliness
Room was clean. Bedding a bit uncomfortable. Found it hard to get warm. Had to turn airconditioner off as it blew its stream of air right onto bed. Generally a bit dated. Continental breakfast fine, but note that said if we did not clean up sufficiently we would be charged, did not go down well.

The timber look rooms we stayed in were awesome and the view of the mountains from our room was incredible. Such a lovely town and a short walk to the pub for dinner.

I think it's a nice enough place. It seemed more primitive with less heat. Combination motel and motorhome place. If it had been rated at an eight out of 10 I probably would have given it a higher rating.

Stay was good, room was nice. Only downside was that there wasn’t a fridge but may have been an oversight on my end. Otherwise very cute and cozy cabin style lodging. Would go back!

Stayed with our two children. Could do with some new curtains and shower curtain as they had signs of mould. The carpet also looked dirty. Staff were friendly and a good quiet location.

Good little place in the middle of nowhere. On site management is great, friendly, and provided an informative Glow-worm walk. We stayed in the king spa room, and was able to peruse the spa after a long day of walking so it was a nice touch. Could consider adding a little shelf for toiletries in the shower.

This is my extended review The above was all for expedia not fox glacier lodge because I never went there in the search for mount cook it said fox lodge was 10km so we booked it after our 5 hour hike we put address in gps and it said 5 hours 45 minutes …..10 km is if you were to go across the mountain which was obviously impossible since there are no roads on the mountain I called the fox lodge and they said they have asked numerous times for Expedia to not put there listing as a accommodation for Mt Cook but Expedia has not done that so out of country visitors are screwed because they have no idea until it is too late Expedia would NOT refund the money even though it is obviously was there mistake What a utter lack of customer service and to top it off we had no lodging for the evening Really????? What a joke!!!! After all the business I have given them over the years you would think that they would have gone out of their way…. Never again will I use Expedia!!! I’m sure Fox lodge is great but Expedia needs a wake up call

We stayed at the Fox Glacier Lodge for two evenings. The staff at the lodge were amazing. They went above and beyond to answer any of our questions about the town. At night time, they offered a free walk to see the glow worms which was just around the corner from the lodge.
