Omara- more was a perfect location for our one night stopover in Omerama during our A2O cycle ride. The accommodation is first class, very comfortable and so well equipped with a lot of extras we did not expect. Karen is a great host, responded quickly to my questions and gave us lots of recommendations of where to have dinner and other things to do in the town. I would highly recommend this host and the beautiful accommodation to anyone visiting the area.

Often overlooked as a passing point to more exotic destination, this little stop over town has a few worthy attractions; the Clay Cliffs, the Ahuriri River, the Hot tub and the Glider rides etc. It is also near Twizel and Lake Ohau too.

Great little settlement - the Clay Cliffs were spectacular and a definite must-see. The Hot Tubs were so lovely afterwards - very private and in a peaceful outdoor setting. Absolutely loved them. Had a meal at the local pub which was also very good.

There are two places to eat in the village.

There are two places to eat in the village. A hotel which caters for tour parties. The bufet looked average. The ala carte menue, which looks interesting is not available every night (barman said). It was available when I was there, but the staff seamed very reluctant to offer it. The steak was limp (looked like it had been cooked in a sous vide, but not flash fried at a high enough temperature) and everything was way, way over salted!!! I was Would not recomend it. The pub was lovely, good food, great staff and welcoming. Would recomend it.

It was a spur of the moment booking as we had a problem with our car. Great hotel for overnight or several days. Friendly helpful staff, clean rooms if a bit "tired". Arrived late and left early so didn't eat on the premises.

The location was just right. It was the ideal location for a day trip up to Mt Cook. It was just across the road to Omarama Hot Tubs. We walked across at 8PM and sat in the warm water for 90 minutes with the trillions of stars shining bright. After we walked back. Absolutely brilliant. On our last day, my wife suffered a medical event which required being airlifted out. The people of Omarama rallied around giving first response and organizing traffic and the helicopter to land adjacent to the motel. lifesaving help.

Very nice common space with amazing views of the mountains.. The atmosphere of the hotel was very relaxing and reminded us of our old family house (outdated but clean and feels quite homey). The general manager and team are doing their best to restart this hotel after the prolonged closure during Covid
