Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Room was very clean and good location for small town nearby. We never saw any staff but there was a note with our room number on it and key inside room.
Nothing we didn't like
Centrally located hotel which is easily accessible to the main attractions of the town. The bed is really comfortable, the tv is working well, and the bathroom is highly functional. Overall, I would highly recommend this accommodation.
None
Good pricing and comfortable. In a great location.
Underfloor heating in my unit wasn't working so could be cold with the only heating being a panel wall mounted heater.
Was great
Stayed at Westheaven Motel and couldn’t ask for better. The room was clean, super comfortable, and incredibly quiet. Great value for money. Highly recommend if you’re passing through.
none
Really comfortable super king sized bed, very clean and heated floor in bathroom ! Very convenient in the Fox Glacier village.
Garden could do with come maintenance, weeds at entrance door not great !
Late check-in well-organized, spacious room, kitchen well-equipped, good starting point to explore the nature trails surrounding Fox Glacier.
Our one night stay was comfortable, warm, underfloor heating in the bathroom was welcomed.
great location to stay and close to see reflection river.
room was bit too cold i guess and compact bathroom
Very convenient location - in the village on the main road.
A bit dated, but functional. Electric space heater
A great place to stop for a night on a long road trip
Location
Location and size of room. Bed comfortable and room warm.j
Our towels were damp and u clean had to ask for them to be changed. A shelf was not secured props and fell causing some breakage
Its location centrally within Fox Glacier.
It’s tired and a bit dirty. The outdoor area, with seating had dirty bowls and dirty ashtrays. A bit of mould on the curtains
Location was awesome! Clean, comfortable rooms.
The shower was not great!
Accessible room with large bathroom with shower seat. Bed was comfortable.
Proximity to city
View of car park but can’t have everything price good car parking as well manager very good
Very comfortable, spacious and well equipped!
Everything, staff were friendly, room was just what we needed, showers worked.
Nothing
The motel was in a good location in Fox Glacier and easy to find. Overall it was a comfortable place to stay.
The kitchen was very small. The television was frustrating as we could not seem to access free to air TV and could only access apps that you had to have an account for. Someone else was still signed in on the TV.
Beds were comfy and location was brilliant. Perfect for one night.
No view, just a retaining wall Garden needs a tidy.
Fantastic location, able to walk to local restaurants. Spacious and comfortable
Rooms and facilities are a little jaded, but it was good value for money, especially for the location and staff were very helpful
Big bed and convenient location. Overall good amenities and clean and functional.
The shower was very messy. Over spray and poor shower curtain. People were not very friendly. But still a good place to stay if that’s not important to you.
Tres bien.situé. calme. Chambre avec kitchenette vue sur jardin. centre du village. Accueil sympathique.
Tout parfait
The position
Cleaning, smelling carpet
- geräumiges Zimmer - ruhige Lage - saubere Mikrowelle und Wasserkocher
- in die Jahre gekommenes Motel - Spinnweben an den Wänden und Decken - Bad bedarf deingender Renovierung (Fugen der Fliesen nicht sauber, Duschvorhang fleckig, Spiegel zerkratzt) - Vorhänge dreckig - Sofaüberwurf abgenutzt - Mappe mit Ausflugstipps abgegriffen - Besteckschublade schmutzig
Well located and great bake value for money
Great location, large room
The bed was very uncomfortable, I’d say quite old and probably well overdue to be updated. Window was filthy on the outside so had to keep blind down.
Tot onze grote verrassing hadden wij een tuin aan de achterzijde van ons verblijf, super fijn. Het verblijf is zeer ruim.
De inventaris is wat mager.
Location was great
Unit is looking tired, and the bed was hard.
Clean and spacious

Great location. Very helpful check in person
nothing
Convenient, efficient and all the basics covered. Reasonable value and it was quiet with free parking outside our room.
It was clean but in need of a bit of freshening up - smelt a little musty.
ben ubicat, l'apartament es ampli i lluminos.
Room was big enough and location was good.
There were a lot of insects in our room and the room was a bit dark even during the day.
10m from bar and resteraunt
Nothing
Proximity to town and eating places
Shower over bath with no grab rail. We’re elderly. The shower also had a very weak pressure. Some more cleaning necessary around baseboards, etc
Läget var bra
Ingen aircondition i rummet. Badrumsfönstret var öppet när vi checkade in. Sandflugor i rummet . Extra handduk i ett skåp var smutsig. Wifi var svagt. Tv box var upptejpad med vanlig hushållstejp på platt tv och den ramlade ner när vi ställde en väska under skrivbordet.
The room was nice and big.
Easy to find
Not very warm or welcoming. The pillows were not comfortable
Location good
Lounge seat broken, soap/shampoo/conditioners in pump bottles on sink bench but nowhere to put them when in shower except on floor then can't pump them! Light from outside comes through curtains so room lit up while trying to sleep. No tea towel for dishes. No where for bathroom towels IN the bathroom to hang after use.
Great proximity, nice and clean
Shower was terrible, back needed to be cleaned up
Location
Need better cleaning
Was close to shops and eating venues. Room was clean and presented well.
Couldn’t watch normal TV. There was a garbage in the rubbish bin. Bed was hard
You can't go wrong with the location in a tiny town like Fox Glacier. The room was adequate and the bed was comfortable.
The shower curtain had pink mold on the bottom. When I turned on the shower water, bits of black were coming out of the shower head. The rowels were worn and tattered. The electric tea pot was scorched on the bottom releasing particles into the hot water.
Location
The couch should have been thrown out and replaced. It smelled. The grounds were
Great location for exploring the glacier area
A bit of a mixed experience. The only staff we met were some Chinese guys, who hardly spoke English. We had to ask several times to get our room cleaned, and even so the cleaning standard was below average (I don't think anyone has cleaned behind the toilet since it was installed!!). The kitchen is very small in the room.
房間大,地點優秀

Good facilities and location
Spacious room, very clean. Big bathroom with a bath! Great to relax after a long walk or drive! Good pub meals close by.
Location was great
Uncomfortable bed and furniture. Dated fittings
Netflix op de tv en het restaurant naast het hotel was top. Genoeg plek om te parkeren. Centrale locatie in Fox Glacier.
Beetje een vreemd motel. De receptie was nog niet af en het personeel leek verbaasd dat we er waren (ruim binnen de inchecktijd). De badkamer was echt verouderd met afbladderende verf. Overal zaten vlekken en de hele vibe was gewoon groezelig. Snap niet hoe dit zo’n hoge rating heeft.
Good location, friendly staff very accessible good value for money good bar/restaurant next door
Nothing
Good wifi, laundry onsite for a small fee. We based ourselves here for a few days to fly over the glaciers.
We loved the location of the motel. It was very close to bars. Our room had been renovated.
All good.
Good location and served the purpose for one night
Was dated, needed maintenance
The location- close to the centre
Level of cleanliness- mould on the bathroom window, shower curtain and net curtains. Washcloth had grey stains on it. Towels threadbare. No kitchen knife. Duvet too small for the bed.Broken outdoor seating.
Didn’t have breakfast
Closeness to shops
