The room is very clean and tidy. It should be noted that the check-in office is at the intersection opposite the house. When checking in late, it will indicate which room the guest will stay in. The door is unlocked and you can go in directly. The room also has a small courtyard, which is suitable for drinking beer and chatting! There is also a fireplace in the house for drying towels. The Motel is very close to the popular breakfast restaurant Fairlie Barkey. You can buy breakfast and set off the next day. Their pancakes are very solid and filled with fillings and meat. What is a little unpleasant is that I paid the reservation fee for 2 adults and 1 child. When checking out, the landlord saw the three of us coming out and said that we only paid for one person, but it was considered for the sake of us taking care of the children. . We feel wronged. It was explained at the time that it might be a problem with the agent. My order was paid by 3 people normally. After we left, we asked the Ctrip housekeeper to communicate clearly with the landlord. The agent asked her to confirm that we had paid the three people. Therefore, families with children should pay attention, because a room for 2 people and a room for 3 people may have the same room type, but the price will definitely be different, because overseas, the cost of cleaning the bed and cleaning will be included. Maybe it was a misunderstanding, but the room was really nice anyway! Ctrip customer service is also reliable.

Simple cabin that satisfied our needs. Great kitchen facilities and garden with deck. One of the rooms had no aircon so we had to move kids mattress to the main room as it was too hot in the other room. Not much to see in fairlie but close to lake Tekapo and Pukaki and Mount cook gateway.

The property was in good condition. I LOVED the heated mattress, especially since we did not know how to work the room heater. WiFi was excellent, and Cynthia gave us a warm welcome and helpful information for dining in the area.

This was more like a small cabin than a motel, and we were very comfortable in our snuggly queen beds that were heated, and we had an electric fireplace. Air conditioning (worked but wasn’t needed), a kitchenette with a bar fridge, toaster, kettle, microwave, assorted cutlery, plates, bowls and glasses/mugs. We were even supplied means of cleaning to reuse our dishes, which came in handy and stopped dirty dishes from piling up. We had a dining table with four chairs - was very handy. The shower was hot and the pressure was good. We had a carport right outside our door and a private outdoor area at the back our studio apartment/cabin with table and chairs. We were 30 minutes driving from Lake Tekapo, within 2-5 minutes walking distance to the pub/shops and the famous Fairlie Bakery and their delicious pies. This bakery was packed every morning with visitors. We also had television and internet which worked well, tv was slightly glitchy at times but wasn’t an issue. We were very comfortable here, and would happily return on our next visit. The staff were very pleasant and friendly, easy to contact and helpful - I saw the cleaner several times and I don’t remember her name but I do remember how lovely she was. We would HAPPILY return.

Booked 2 rooms for my husband & i & my daughter & partner. Daughter checked in for all of us & staff member was lovely & very helpful. Rooms were warm & very clean. I appreciated the extra effort of printed instructions for use of remotes for the tv. Bed was comfortable as were pillows. More luxurious than what we were expecting. Good shower in bathroom & unit was immaculately clean. Lovely fireplace in unit as well although not used as unit was lovely & warm for winter. Private outdoor garden area would be lovely in summer or of we were staying longer. Motel is within close proximity to restaurants and shopping. Undercover car parking in front of units which is free. Units have a jug for tea & coffee & a microwave. Would highly recommend Mackenzie Motel if staying in Fairlie.
