Closest hostel to Mt Cook, the site is fine. However, the owners are using that proximity to over-charge and under serve. My husband and I toured the South Island for 5 weeks in Feb. and March, 2013. We paid $95 NZD for a room with 2 single beds and nothing else. There is no insulation between the walls and to... More

We stayed here for five nights. The location is stunning, price was pretty good, however, the major let down was the sound insulation, or lack of it. The floors creak, so anyone moving in any of the cabins can be heard throughout the entire place. Anyone talking, TV going, snoring, pretty much all noise can easily transfer between the walls....

Thank you very much for your review. We are sorry for the noise between units. In 2010 we renovated the kitchen and bathrooms in these units, and in doing so we added sound proof Gib. This significantly reduced the noise. To diminish it, we need to put sound proof Gib on the other walls of the units. This is a... More

Although the site is quite out on it's own & nothing else really close by, it was very well set up, if a little basic with very helpful staff and also very peaceful. We had a powered site for a couple of nights and there was loads of space to set up camp! We woke to brilliant sunshine & fantastic... More

The park was very quiet when we visited, about 5 or 6 other campers. Facilities were clean, a lot of cooktops/fridges. Showers/bathrooms were fine. Great view of the mountain from some of the tent sites!

Glentanner has beautiful views of Mt. Cook. The facilities are clean and comfortable, including the bathrooms (with free showers) and basic kitchen. You have to pay for wi-fi, dishes, and laundry. It was a delightful place to stay and the star gazing was amazing!

My husband and I stayed at Glentanner for one night at the end of April 2013. We had a self-contained unit which was very clean, comfortable and with superb views. However, there were guests in the units on both sides (shared walls) and even though no-one was particularly loud you could hear voices from the next unit. Even worse was... More

This was our second stay at Glentanner. The facility has lots of little spaces for tents, caravans and campervans tucked away in the pines and matagouri that provide shelter from the winds and privacy, but are still close enough to the main facilities. The loos are clean, and well stocked with soap and loo paper. The showers are very good... More

Thank you very much for your review and your continued support! The photo we have of 2 boys on the tramp with Mount Cook in the background must be yours! Such a great shot! The trampolines had to be removed because they got too old. We hope to have trampolines or slides/swings set up for next summer. We look forward... More
