Distinction Te Anau Hotel & Villas, hotel in Te Anau

Distinction Te Anau Hotels & Villas overlooks the spectacular Lake Te Anau and the Fiordland ranges. It offers elegant rooms with lake and garden views.

The hotel was fantastic. Location right on the lake with great views, very very friendly staff and good clean rooms. We were late one morning to breakfast (which is also a huge great buffet) and they let us get a good breakfast anyway. Everyone there is super friendly. Parking is right out the door so that is very easy too. Great value and experience for our family.

    I just love the relaxed surroundings of Te Anau, it's one of my favorites destinations for a few'nights-getaway..there is lots to do and if you're adventurous you can do even more! Amazing nature, the lake is just stunning, township is not too big but has all you could want/need. Brilliant food places...love The Ranche and the Moose. Redcliff restaurant and bar is a unexpected find, quaint and quirky but great food and staff. Overall, Te Anau is a beautiful destination if you're looking for somewhere not too touristy (at least, it doesn't feel that way)

    This is a nice location which has everything.

    This is a nice location which has everything. The town centre has everything that you would need. Friendly people in shops and businesses. Great range of different restaurants. Excellent tourist attractions. Very convenient to Milford Sound - 2 hours through stunning countryside. A lot better to travel from Te Anau to Milford Sound or Doubtful Sound than to come from Queenstown - 4 hours travel The best place we found to eat and just chill at was Red Cliff Bar and Restaurant - friendly staff, exceptional food and first rate service. A couple of must do's are: Wings and Water (float plane) with Ivan and Cruise Te Anau with Peter. Both locals, highly entertaining and knowledgeable.

    This is a great, very small town that makes a great stay to see the Fiordlands. Stay at a location with a view of the lake. Activities from here are a great choice. The lake and mountains are beautiful and eat at the Ranch, best place we ate on both islands.

    A lovely place and central to attractions with easy access to Doubtful Sound. Really glad we missed out on Milford Sound as the trip to Doubtful was amazing. Did the Glow Worms tour which was wonderful.

    We stayed a bit longer in Te Anau to do a bit of hiking. It's a small town, so easy to get to know quickly. The nicer restaurants need a reservation, and it seemed when we went that quite a few restaurants were short-staffed. If dining is important to you, check out where you want to eat a few days beforehand.

    Nice motel right opposite to the lake. The place is close to the town center. We stayed here for a day before our journey to Milford Sound. The room was spacious and clean. The motel has a guest laundry. Robin is a great host and provides a ton of information about Te Anau, places for dinner, travelling to Milford Sound, etc. The room was spacious and comfortable for a family of 3. The room had one double bed and one single bed. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom clean and tidy. Place has free onsite car parking.

    Nothing fancy, but very comfortable and clean. A queen bed in the bedroom, two singles in the living area, all very comfortable and warm (stayed in late March). The little kitchen was outfitted with all the dishes we needed for our cereal breakfasts and takeout dinners. I'm sure we could have cooked If we had wanted to. It has a mini fridge, not a full fridge, which was fine for us. Te Anau was a great location for seeing Milford Sound and the beautiful scenery and hikes in between.

    My family and I enjoyed our stay at Amber Hotel and highly recommened. They have a a separate shower and bath. Water is strong with unlimited hot water. Bed and pillows are very comfy. They may not have Netflix or Disney, my children enjoyed watching dvds. My 2 eldest boys were telling their young sister about the days when there is no Netflix and disney+ 😂. Te Anau is the best place to find accommodation if planning to travel to Milford Sound.

    Our unit was warm, comfortable, immaculately clean, and had everything we needed. The heating was on when we arrived, it had a heated bathroom floor, and I was pleased to find there was an electric blanket. I appreciated having real milk provided for our cups of tea (rather than fiddly little sachets of UHT milk that many places offer). Anchorage will be my motel choice for any return visits to Te Anau.

    The motel is on the lakeside, very beautiful, and close to the town center (10 minutes by footwalk on the lakeside). The room is very cozy, very clean and big. It has a bathroom and an equipped kitchen. The beds are very comfortable. Parking lot in front of the room. Friendly staff. Great price/value. Definitely recommended if you visit Te Anau and Milford Sound.

    Such a wonderful place to stay! The unit was beautiful, spacious, and exceptionally clean. we came back each day to clean towels and a freshly made bed, which was a wonderful touch. Annie was so friendly and welcoming, and even did our laundry for us. We would absolutely recommend staying here during your visit to Te Anau!

    The location was great, being just a few minutes to walk into town. It is also opposite Lake Te Anau, which has a lovely walk along the lakefront. The hotel is spacious and our room was a good size with a lovely view of the lake. All the staff we met, were very friendly and helpful.

    The motel is situated very conveniently to everything in Te Anau. It's just a short drive to one of the major attractions in the area, the starting point for Doubtful Sound and the Te Any glow worm caves. It's also a good spot for taking a day trip to Milford Sound.

    It’s right next to the lake Te Anau and very close to the town center where you can find grocery stores, food, and shops. It’s such a peaceful hostel and it offers nice outdoor dining area. Loved its chill atmosphere. Would come back if I visit Te Anau again.

    The location is on the water front at Lake Te Anau but the hotel is not built along the lake front like others. so most rooms do not get a lake view. My room was a good size, though the bathroom was compact. Very comfortable bed.
