Fantastic property. Very quiet and secluded (even though it is in the heart of Franz Josef).

This is my favorite hotel during this New Zealand trip. Room is spacious, has a private balcony facing lush green plants. The canopy restaurant provides breakfast buffet and 5 course dinner. We definitely will stay there again.

Viel zu Teuer ür das was geboten wird!
Viel zu Überrteuret, für das was schlussendlich geboten wird! Für diesen Preis habe ich einiges mehr erwartet. Das Nachtessen war ok, das Rindsfillet und das Schokoladenmousse ausgezeichnet. Auch das Frühstücksbuffet war weit unter dem Niveau was man in so einem Hotel erwarten darf.

The dinners weren't great - for example rock hard cheese and some inedible dishes, the staff at the food hall's customer service was inconsistent. No gym, pool or fitness centre. Plus the spa was full booked with a massive waiting list. Bit odd as it was a 3 star place at best. Some nice people on main reception but there are some real challenges in this hotel.

Beautiful forrest retreat. Rooms include a five course dinner and breakfast that were both very nice. Only issue was the boil water notice and lack of bottled water in the room.

We apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.We all wish you the best for the rest of your travel's around New Zealand!Kind regards,Te Waonui Forest Retreat team

Magically getaway in Franz Josef
The rainforest retreat was very special and beautifully presented. Staff were very welcoming and friendly. The hot towel and kiwi juice in arrival after a long drive was heavenly. The rooms look over the rainforest and feel secluded. Rooms are quiet, big and clean. Bathroom was spotless with great shower and separate bath. We were lucky enough to have the 5 course dinner and was not disappointed…highly recommend. The buffet brekkie was great too with lots of different options.

Very nice location and staff with a clean room and well thought through. The included dinner and breakfast felt a bit forced and not the expected quality. I would prefer a choice. We were pushed to a 6:00 pm seating for no apparent reason. High price considering the quality overall.

Dear John,We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and found our team, rooms and the location of the Hotel up to standard. All our reservation confirmations state the requirement to make dinner reservations, due to the large numbers of guest we have to serve and all the other time slots being already booked unfortunately 6pm was the only available time slot on the night of your stay.We are constantly looking at improving our product and would like to thank you for your feedback regarding the food, which has been taken in to consideration and we will look at incorporating this in out future menus.We all hope that you enjoy the rest of your travels around New Zealand!Kind regards,Te Waonui Forest Retreat Team

Not worth the money !!
The place is overpriced. For a thousand NZ 1000$ per night -it is not worth it. The food had the same menu every day for breakfast and dinner. The last seating for dinner is 8 PM and if you come late they will request you to eat at another restaurant and they will pick up the tab. However there is no restaurant nearby that is worth the money that you have already paid for the dinner at Te Waonui. Overall totally overpriced for the stay

Dear Gnananandh Thank you for your review. Disappointing to read that we did not met your expectations. The breakfast that we offer has daily specials as well as Items that would be found in most hotels in New Zealand, we do offer special dishes for dietary etc, which our team can organise if required. The option of dining off site is popular with our guest who would like to try something different. All the best BradM / GM Te Waonui Forest Retreat

A treat of a retreat.
The retreat is lovely and the grounds beautifully maintained. It is conveniently located right next to the hot pools and a helicopter company. The food in the dining room was very good, especially the 5 course meal, and their wine menu offered great selections. The staff were very pleasant and accommodating. My only dissatisfaction was with the heating in the room. It was difficult to adjust so we were comfortable. The weather was unpredictable while we were there so that may have been a contributing factor.

Luxurious retreat in a small glacier town
What a great retreat in a small glacier town. At first may seem overpriced, but it includes a truly outstanding breakfast and dinner, wich ends up being a great deal. The location and views, the service, the ambiance of a mountain lodge are all great. Rooms are very cozy and comfortable.

Te Waonui Forest Retreat is the nicest hotel located in the Franz Josef Glacier area. It is tidy and the rooms are quite nice. It was a little chaotic in the lobby area because they cater to the tour bus crowd. Dinner was a fixed five course dinner option that was the same menu 2 nights in a row. Thankfully, they had 2 appetizer and 3 entree choices so you could eat differently each night. They attempted to make it upscale but it felt more like a cruise ship or disney hotel. Again, it is the best choice for the area but certainly not a 5-star hotel!
