Mt Cook Lodge & Motels

8/10 Good
"It would be helpful to have a easy to see sign somewhere to let the customers know where to check in. I drove around and went to a different business then got advised that need to go to the hotel reception to check in. The outdoor areas could be better for a place with that price range. Indoor was good enough. Overall experience was good."
