We agree with other reviewers about the stunning location and how friendly the staff are. We also enjoyed the wonderful food, plenty of tea and coffee in the lounge, which was certainly a very comfortable area to sit in relax and chat with fellow guests. We had wonderful views out over the Lake but our disappointment was the room. Yes... More

we stay in a room facing the car park hence maybe the view wasnt that nice. The room was good but the walk way was a little bit dark. The lounge big and cosy, the outdoor view was good and my friend managed to capture a moon hola ~ a very nice and peaceful place but may be a bit... More

Millionares might be disappointed that this doesn't cost a lot more, because its location, comfort and service levels distinguish it. The lodge 'exists' at several levels: there is a bunkhouse, there are combination rooms which include beds and bunks, and there is a very good quality hotel which at its top levels offers every amenity and subliminal views of Lake...

I stayed here for 1 night at the end of December 2011 as part of a tour. There was a large number or us but check in was easy. I was allocated a twin room with a view of the car park, however friends on the other side of the building had a lake view - much nicer, request if... More

#Lyn T "Thanks for a fantastic weekend. The hospitality shown by all staff to all members of our family was fabulous. The chef and the staff produced absolutely stunning meals throughout our stay. We can't speak highly enough of the service shown to Bex, Jody and their families leading up to and after the wedding. To Louise, Mike and Jock... More

We were there for 4 nights for a family wedding with 3 young children (aged 5, 7 & 8). The location and scenery were drop dead gorgeous, the food was amazing, but as a Mum of busy youngsters, the best thing was the way the team at Ohau Lodge looked after our kids - nothing was too much trouble, they...

A fantastic family-run venture, staff all very friendly and helpful. It was a great place to stop and refresh ourselves while walking the length of New Zealand. We were collected and delivered back to our trail finish/start, so no extra kilometres to walk. Our accommodation in the Huxley wing was really nice, and we enjoyed a soak in the spa... More

Great hospitality and fantastic location on tranquil Lake Ohau - great for daytrips to Mt Cook. The color of the lake is amazing. The view from the lodge is great!

We were booked in for one night as part of a cycle trip we were on. We were greeted on arrival and farewelled on departure by a member of the family who run the business - a nice touch. Our evening meal was superb. My main dish choice was lamb and it was perfectly cooked and very tender. The dining... More
