So much to see and do.
So much to see and do. I will ensure that we spend more time there on our next visit. Highlight was Scenic Helicopter trip to the Glacier flying with Ken from Heliservices. NZ. Make sure you finish off your day with a private soak at Waiho Hot Tubs.Guest review byAnonymous - 10.0

Unfortunately it was raining at times and overcast so our helicopter flight to the glaciers was cancelled. We were given a full refund as the weather was out of our control. We could still do walks and the wildlife centre and movie of the western coast of NZ at the cinema were a highlight.Guest review byRobertAustralia - 10.0
Nice little town.
Nice little town. Had great views and lits of nice tracks for walking. Restaurants were good and gift shop had nice selection of items at prices better than what I have seen elsewhere. Glacier Country Heli Tour was superub!Guest review byJanaUnited States - 8.0
We dined at the Landing restaurant.
We dined at the Landing restaurant. Very good, busy and lively atmosphere, with friendly service, many tables were reserved. Big platefuls of great food, so bring your appetite. Easy parking in Franz, as would be expected. Especially after QT!! The walk to the glacier viewing platform from the car-park shouldn't be underestimated for anyone who is infirm or unfit. But it's worth it for the view when you get there. The west coast road is delightful to drive. But note that there was road clearing operations which literally closed the road north of Haast for a couple of hours! Take heed of any warning signs!Guest review byMichaelNew Zealand - 8.0

Lots of walking trails towards the glacier but sadly we were not able to do any walking as it was raining hard and steady during our stay. Enjoyed a delicious meal at “Alice May” restaurant only 5-10 minute walk from hotel.Guest review byJohnUnited States - 10.0

Great area for outdoor activities with plenty to do and experience. We did several local DOC walks (i.e., Tatare Falls and Callery Gorge) and undertook an amazing helicopter flight with Glacier Country Helicopters - Pilot’s Choice (35 minutes duration). The Landing was a great place to dine.Guest review byKarenNew Zealand

- From US$129.50 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 7.7Good - What previous guests thought, 1,067 reviewsWe stayed here for one night on our travels around the south island. The hotel is really well located to the centre of the town with plentiful car parking. The staff were friendly and the accommodation comfortable and similar to the motel style of many hotels in New Zealand. Breakfast and dinner was included and was pleasant. The price is a little higher than we would pay for similar accommodation elsewhere but given the location was good value.Guest review byClareUnited Kingdom
- Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.3Superb - What previous guests thought, 121 reviewsI wish I could give 6 or 7 stars if possible! We had an amazing stay. The house is beautiful, spacious, and comfortable, with a large living and dining area. The kitchen is super well-equipped. In addition to air conditioning, the wood fireplace and electric blankets on each bed kept us very warm during the cold days. The location is quiet yet conveniently close to Franz Josef Glacier and Fox Glacier. We would definitely love to come back!Guest review byMinAustralia
- From US$116.35 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.4Very good - What previous guests thought, 1,146 reviewsEverything was clean and comfortable. Good location but not best location (best location would be directly in Franz Josef or Fox Glacier). Nonetheless it’s only a few minutes away but you need a vehicle. Quiet for a motel. Private entrance : you don’t have to pass in front of other rooms when you enter your room. Microwave and others to fix your own food and breakfast. I would definitely come back.Guest review byMichaelSweden
- From US$69.81 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.9Fabulous - What previous guests thought, 1,669 reviewsLoved our stay here! Super modern and clean facilities with a cosy communal lounge and well equipped kitchen. Our room felt like a hotel stay, and the shared bathrooms were individual units of a shower and toilet which was great. The staff were super accommodating and helpful. Well located in the heart of Franz Josef village.Guest review byAlisonUnited Kingdom
- From US$164.64 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.5Very good - What previous guests thought, 950 reviewsThe rooms (more like chalet units) were very cosy and well furnished. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and gave excellent advice about when it would be feasible to visit the Franz Josef glacier. Very good value for money! Would have loved staying one night more if we had more things to do in the area.Guest review byAmosSingapore
