All apartments have a kitchenette and full size fridge/freezer. Each apartment has 24 cable channels on the TV.

Everything. We were in the older part. There is a living room and separate bedroom. It’s huge. The biggest space we’ve had on our journey. Spotlessly clean and has everything you could possibly need. The easy chairs may look a bit bulky and ugly but they are really, really comfortable. And there’s a balcony as well. The view over the lake is lovely and it’s about a five minute walk into town. And the gardens are beautifully maintained

Situated next to Lake Te Anau, Kingsgate Hotel is within walking distance of the town centre. It offers excellent walking opportunities nearby and free onsite parking. Unlimited free WiFi is included.

The comfortable rooms offer en suite bathrooms and modern facilities. The hotel has a communal lounge with a fireplace. Since there are no taxis in town my husband and I had such a hard time walking to the hotel from the bus station with two large suitcases. The manager Justin Ludlow stepped right up and agreed to bring our suitcases down to meet us at the bus station when we were leaving town after we had shopped and had lunch. So kind! Thank you Justin!
