Glenalvon was recommended to us by a Nelson Music store owner who we meet by chance a few days earlier. He was spot on with his description of this little piece of paradise. All most straight across from the springs, two minutes’ walk could not have been better. The unit was spacious, clean and warm. Yes it didn’t have cooking... More

Very good place to stay, plenty space in a great room. The Shower and toilet looks not the newest, the Water was less in the shower. We think the Bathroom looks so extreme different to the very good ambience from the Motel and the rooms. No Kitchen, possible is only to made a Tee or Coffee. :-( Very nice and... More

Location is ideal being opposite the pools and walking distance to restaurants. Rooms are away from the road so are quiet. Staff very helpful. Rooms a little tired but excellent value for money. We would stay here again.

We have been in New Zealand for almost 5 years, use motels a lot and this was right up there. It was quiet, super size for a family of four, spa bath and a great price. Staff were very helpful and friendly. We plan to go back and will stay here. Bed was on the firm side which we personally... More

The owners were great. Great location. I thought the room was only ok. Spacious yes but not as clean as I expected after reading the reviews. We had a leaky window in the bathroom. Wifi was non existent in our room. Nice but not great.

We were impressed with this motel. The studio unit was spacious and clean. The staff were very friendly, lending us towels for the hot pools. The heated towel rail in the bathroom and the nice heater in the main room meant that we could dry our bathing suits in time for the next day's trip to the hot pools. The... More

We stayed at one of their basic studio units but the bed was comfortable. It is also conveniently located across the road from the thermal pools and walking distance to restaurants. The heater was on when we entered our room so that's lovely on a winter's day.

We had a fantastic stay, Dale welcomed us, washed our clothes for minimal cost. It is the people who make the place. Dale gave us 2 mini scooters, very cheap, he couldnt be more helpful, very clean, great location, close to springs and restuarants, etc. We are going back to stay again, driving from queenstown just to stay there, then...

Very cosy and... More
