    We have been here a few times now and love it.

    We have been here a few times now and love it. It is the gateway to Mt Cook - we have done a heli hike, some wonderful walks and tramps, taken in the rivers and lakes, soaked in the hot tubs, eaten at local restaurants, shopped in the local stores, star gazed .... the list goes on. The locals are super friendly - Twizel is just down the road from Tekapo but is nowhere near as busy or commercial. Accessible from Christchurch or Queenstown - you can fly into one, rent a car and fly out from the other, or just do a round trip. We will be back !!

    Restaurants and cafes very busy and some were closed.

    Restaurants and cafes very busy and some were closed. Since it was Easter Sunday and the finish of Warbirds Airshow, we had difficulty finding somewhere to have dinner and certainly no place for breakfast.

    Twizel is a small town but growing, with new housing areas...

    Twizel is a small town but growing, with new housing areas on the edge of town and spreading out from there. It is mainly a holiday town but has a core of permanent residents. It has a nice wee shopping area, good restaurants and is handy to the other lakes in the area and to a ski field in winter. It also gives easy access to Aoraki Mt Cook and the Waitaki Valley.

    Cute town.

    Cute town. It has what one needs to enjoy the getaway—groceries, pharmacy, gas, some clothing stores. And, most importantly, nice people who—in spite of the numbers of tourists who are in and out of town—are kind and helpful. Thank you, Twizel!

    Nice little place with easy access by car to several lakes...

    Nice little place with easy access by car to several lakes and the Hooker Valley walk. Nice river walk with views to Mt Cook. Twizel has few tourists that we saw and has a very different feel to it than Tekapo, which we didn’t like at all. We didn’t eat out in Twizel, but we did see a few restaurants, we cooked at the house as had great facilities there. Good supermarkets.

    Aoraki /Mount Cook National Park is great, go for walk/hike.

    Aoraki /Mount Cook National Park is great, go for walk/hike. Try "Twizel" salmon, it is delicious. Twizel town is based on my opinion overrated in overal (visited many other places in NZ). If you want to see Aoraki / Mount Cook two days are enough with Lake Pukaki and Tekapo as well.

    A spacious, comfortable and modern room that felt nice and private. Everything was clean, tidy and there's a handy folder with recommendations of local walks / things to do. It's a good location, an easy walk to various bars / restaurants and parking was simple. There's a small car park (accommodating around 3 cars) for the hotel but you're down a quiet side street so there's plenty of roadside parking also.

    Tony, the host met us immediately we pulled up. He was very friendly and took us around the property to show us all the features. It was a cold night and they already had the electric blankets on to warm the beds up. The house was warm and comfortable. The hosts have looked at what a guest might need during their stay and have provided it. We will definitely book here next time we are in Twizel.

    This was the cutest and best Airbnb we have ever stayed in and we have stayed in a lot. Super comfortable bed and accommodations , views out every window, robes, great snacks and continental breakfast, best shower of whole month long trip and super fun outdoor tub to enjoy star gazing or morning coffee. I only wish we could have stayed longer. I highly recommend this adorable cottage!!

    Very comfortable and spacious holiday house. All amenities are there including a big fridge / freezer, big laundry machine (can do a hot laundry) and even a vacuum cleaner. Twizel is not a very interesting town but it is close to many interesting spots including Mt. Cook of course. We had some minor issues with the carbage but the staff reacted very quickly and adequately on that.

    The property is a modern three bedroom holiday home of a good size with most of the amenities of home. A large fridge and a washing machine were appreciated as was the outside seating area. The location is quiet and seems to mostly be other holiday homes. Not too far from the shops where there were several places to eat.

    Cabin Rooms are value for money and have great heating. Common area for cabin users has TV and cooking facilities. All kitchen facilities are provided. The cheaper cabins do not have their own shower and WC but the camp facilities are very good.

    The room was clean. We enjoyed using the space and it met our needs. It's a very nice motel. The owners were very friendly and accommodating. This motel was close to restaurants, Mt Cook, and Lake Tekapo. I would definitely come back.

    The location was very convenient for traveling to Mt. Cook National Park. The wide open space was nice too, especially since it's in the dark sky reserve. No food options immediately nearby, but it's not far from Twizel.

    Loved the cabin. Very clean and well appointed. Comfortable bed. The city of Twizel lost water due to a broken water main while we were there but we were kept aware of the progress made on the repairs.
