Hotels with Parking in Fox Glacier

Very good hahaha

This is the only youth hostel on this trip, but the conditions are not bad. We booked a room with a private bathroom, one of the three rooms, and shared the kitchen and living room area. The guests were very quiet and no sound could be heard. The small kitchen was fully equipped with kitchenware, and it is said that the hotel has a larger kitchen.

The hotel is right next to the departure point for the Fox Glacier helicopter, and you can walk there after checking in. It rained when we came so we couldn't make the trip, but the hotel itself was pretty good and the room was large. The only drawback was that the water pressure was very low and the shower was not very comfortable. Breakfast is a Western-style buffet breakfast, which is not rich but enough to satisfy you. You can have dinner for white people at the whitepub coffee shop next to the hotel. It costs NZD 25-30 per person and the taste is okay. Hotels in Fox Glacier are generally expensive. After 11 days in New Zealand, this is the only one with a price over 1,000.

Maybe it's the off-season, so there weren't many guests. The biggest plus was the very new bathroom. The room was small, and there were no kitchen facilities. A small fridge hung awkwardly over the sink, which was really inconvenient. The closet was so packed with an ironing board and other items that there was hardly any space to hang clothes.

It's just a normal motel with a public kitchen and good hygiene. It's a place where I'm passing through. The front desk is very welcoming. There's a parking lot. There are restaurants and supermarkets nearby, but they all close early.
