The motel was a bit old, but the location is fantastic at the center of town and walkable to many eateries and shop. There is construction works going on at the plot of land beside the motel, and might be noisy at times

10/10 Exceptional

We loved our stay at the Lake Tekapo Village Motel! The location is excellent--our room looked out on the lake and we were within minutes walk of the lake and all the main attractions such as the church and the Dark Sky Project. The staff were so friendly and happy to accomodate all of our needs. The complimentary breakfast/lunch is an excellent deal -- voucher to spend at adjacent Doughboys Restaurant which features noodles as well as homemade dumplings (order 20 minutes ahead but so handy to motel so very convenient). Thank you!
