Bella Vista Motel Fox Glacier, hotel in Fox Glacier

Bella Vista Motel Fox Glacier is easy to find, located right in the heart of the Fox Glacier Village. Only a few minutes’ walk from shops, cafés and restaurants.

The lady at the reception was amazing, very kind, always smiling and always here to make things convenient. The place was big, quiet and very convenient location. Comodities was very good and the place very clean. We slept so well, that we booked again Bella Vista in Wanaka. The little plus, thanks for the tissues, we appreciated the gesture 😁

    Fox Glacier is quite stunning, walk is relatively easy to first viewing point, we didn't get any further due to bad weather. Lovely eating places in town and a grocery store. Quite a small town so very quiet. We weren't there long enough to really explore the area

    As a hiker I loved the lakes walks, and also the glacier lookout walk would have been great but the weather on that day was just too wet to complete. The lake Matheson cafe is a lovely place after a hike or good breakfasts beforehand. The town is limited, so if I wasn’t a hiker I would only have stayed a night and moved on.

    There are several interesting walks to the glacier, lake etc. The helicopter to the glacier itself can be booked easily from the town. There are a number of good restaurants within easy walking distance. A overnight stay is all that is required to see & do everything.

    We did the short tramp to Fox Glacier.

    We did the short tramp to Fox Glacier. It’s totally worth the effort. It’s only 30min drive to Franz Joseph where we tramped the 5 hr Roberts Point track. Reasonably arduous tramp, but again totally worth the effort.

    Great location, near by (small) town center and Minnehaha walk with amazing views of mountains. Staff was amazing specially Mathew who was extraordinarily helpful. He got our helicopter ride fixed, arranged our trip to Lake Matheson as it was difficult without car to go 6 km, do 5 km lake circuit (I covered all the major viewing points) come back with family (specially with 4 year old kid).He himself dropped us there and picked up. It was most amazing stay outside our home. Highly recommend this for whosoever intends to visit Fox Glacier.

    At reception, we were greeted by the wonderful Martin. He did not hesitate to take on the task of getting our bags out of the car and up to our room. When we checked out, his expert advice on how to best view Fox Glacier was invaluable and made for a truly unforgettable positive experience. We thank him again via this review.

    Fox Glacier Lodge was a really nice place to stay. The room we had was large and comfortable and the staff offered a free glow worm walk at night. The location is right near the Minnehaha walk and a short drive from lake Matheson and the Fox Glacier viewpoint. We only had one night here, but enjoyed our stay!

    I want to give a special shout out to Matt for being so helpful with my booking for a helicopter ride out of Fox Glacier. Although things didn’t go as hoped in the end, it certainly wasn’t because he didn’t go above and beyond to try and I’m grateful for that.

    We loved the location, the friendliness of the staff, especially Karen at the front desk who wrangled a call from Qantas who had left my bag in Sydney (my bag arrived 2 days later). It was clean, convenient and perfect base for viewing Fox Glacier.
