Wonderful stay

Amazing and beautiful hotel. Really really close to town but far enough away that you still feel secluded. Beautiful hotel, skylight was so beautiful
Samantha, 2-night trip

Nice spot just above town, friendly staff, and awesome cooked breakfast in the morning which is included in the price of the stay.

The property was superb! Clean and the staff were attentive to our needs. The views of the lake was amazing - especially with the snow! Will definitely book another stay here - hopefully in the summer!
Andrew, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful hotel, great service. We had a very nice and comfortable stay. Staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a nice stay and even brought extra dishes to our room so we could have a cozy meal in our room. Highly recommend this beautiful hotel!

Just like a mini QT Hotel

Fantastic funky boutique hotel in the heart of Wellington just near Cuba St with plenty of cafe/restaurant options. Felt like a mini boutique QT Hotel

Jack, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Had a wonderful time at the Galaxy boutique hotel. Staff were incredible and service second to none. We go snowed in and everyone was out helping each other to get their cars out and the hotel kept everyone informed of road closures. Thank you for your hospitality!
Melissa, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A little bit expensive and far away from tepako lake, not many amenities and view is just so so but including free breakfast and staff is nice
Connie, 1-night trip

Great staff, attentive and friendly. Room was clean and everything included as advertised. Highly recommend to others.
Paula, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was well thought out from a guest perspective. Great views including a bedroom skylight with an electronic cover. The plumbing fixtures were top notch, as was the bedding. The free breakfast was excellent. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Best night's stay in NZ so far.
Rick, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Location was great with amazing views
Romita, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The location and view were amazing. We had a free breakfast delivered to our room every day and the food was fantastic. The star viewing skylight was good, but just keep in mind that you can’t see the stars as well if the moon is full, which it was when we were there. Also, this skylight tended to ice up a bit which affected the view of the stars.
Robert, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent hotel and well placed in Lake Tekapo. We were greeted by friendly staff who kindly showed us to room. Our room was located on the upper floor, so came with the skylight which allows you to star gaze. The views from the large window are stunning and is a huge plus when staying here. The beds were comfortable and provided a relaxing night's sleep. The breakfast is freshly cooked to order, whilst there is also a self-service area with toast, fruit and yoghurt. More than enough choice for my wife and I. The hotel is located around a 10 minute walk to the main bars/restaurants.

Shimon, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was fantastic. We liked how we could have seen stars at night through the hole in the roof. However it snowed overnight so we saw nothing. The view from our room was amazing. It included the lake too. Parking was just below. We were on level 2 but it felt like 3 because reception was on level 2. Breakfast in the morning was included too and it was unlimited bread bacon eggs and the usual western fare. The ladies there were very friendly too. It seemed like everyone was heading where we were heading so when others asked her about their route, we just listened in.
Moses, 1-night trip

Lovely experience!

Room was unique and lovely! The skylight provided a view of the stars. Breakfast was custom made and delicious! Hosts were very accommodating. Highly recommend!
