We booked two nights for this our second stay at Aoraki Alpine Lodge. Having enjoyed a great stay back in 2015 we were not disappointed with our visit over the recent long weekend. Satori provided excellent answers to all our questions prior to our visit and, while there, the room, shared kitchen and lounge facilities were comfortable and clean. What an amazing outlook to the mountains and valley! Thanks to all the team.
My daughter and I stayed at the lodge for 2 nights in a twin room. The room was a little small but it was convenient with an ensuite bathroom. The bed was a bit soft for me but it was still comfortable enough. I would say the only real issue with the rooms is that the walls are not well insulated as you can hear the people in the room next door. The best aspect of the lodge is the generous shared kitchen and lounge with an outdoor deck looking out towards Mt Cook. In pre-Covid times this would be an excellent spot to socialise; it was still sociable but people were a little cautious about mixing. The staff were helpful and friendly so all in all it was a good stay.
We stayed for 2 nights. The interiors were dated but so very clean. This lodge has a large kitchen with 2-3 stove ovens and 2 BBQs outside. Plenty of space for large family groups to self-cater. I would highly RECOMMEND bringing your own KNIFE! They have lots but as with most lodges/motels, communally shared knives are not very sharp. They have tidy bins for recycling, food scraps and rubbish. I would most definitely stay there again.
Even though we had the family of four in one room, even though it was raining... Great views from the room, large and well appointed kitchen/lounge area, very clean, very friendly, easy parking, great location, very good value for money. Very quiet (but everywhere was quiet..) I'd recommend it
Great view from the room, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Unfortunately, both the old and the new Wifi offered terrible connection which lasted only a minute or so at a time. Secondly, and the worst part, was the constant slamming doors as people (presumably staff) went in and out of the private room next door, and the exit / entry doors to the hallway. This went on late into the night and started up early in the morning. As the doors slammed, our doors shook. Was a real disappointment, we wouldn't stay again or recommend to anyone.
