We had a good two night stay at Distinction Mackenzie Country Hotel. It was well located and an easy drive to the attractions of Mount Cook Aotaki. The hotel was also well placed for our subsequent drive to Queenstown. The room was spacious and clean and we enjoyed a comfortable stay.

Service from one particular reception staff member was terrible and the young girl behind the bar/front of the restaurant was very rude and had terrible customer service

A very nice town, quiet but convenient for shopping and eating. This hotel is also good. Although the facilities are a bit old (key-locked door), it is quite clean and parking is convenient. It is suitable for friends who drive themselves.

A place to stay for one night after visiting Mount Cook. It is a place that I chose without much thought because there are not many places to stay in this area. It would be helpful to keep this in mind.
