    Nous avons adoré notre séjour dans ces condos écologiques au design unique. La proximité de la plage était incroyable, à seulement quelques minutes de vélo. De plus, la piscine était magnifique et le personnel de sécurité très aimable. Nous avons également apprécié l'accès gratuit aux vélos et au club de plage Papaya Playa. Les chambres étaient spacieuses avec de superbes salles de bains et la cuisine était entièrement équipée. Tout était très propre et bien entretenu.

    Quelques petites améliorations pourraient être apportées au service de ménage.

    Small ensuite room in a separate building with a double and single bed. Amenities included a kettle, teabags, and a TV. Quiet and accommodating staff. Would stay again if passing this way.

    The rooms were warm and cozy, with comfortable beds that made for a good night's sleep. The free wifi was a great bonus, especially since it had good signal and fast speed. The location of the hotel was perfect, with easy access to nearby attractions and amenities. great value for money and a pleasant stay.

    The communal bathrooms could use some improvement, as they had a few issues such as inconsistent water temperature and a general coldness. Additionally, the noise from the on-site bar at night was a bit bothersome, as it was difficult to get a good night's sleep.

    The value for money was great! The room was spacious, clean, and had all the necessary facilities. The location was superb, right in town. The staff were efficient and courteous.

    Breakfast offerings could be improved with a wider variety of options.

    The hostel provides a fun atmosphere with a great pub where you can enjoy delicious food and meet interesting people, as mentioned in a review. the dorm rooms are comfortable, albeit slightly dated, but still cozy enough for a budget traveler. the manager is friendly and helpful, and the bathrooms are clean.

    The beds are reported to be uncomfortable and springy, making it difficult to sleep, as stated in another review.

    We had a blast at the Fox Glacier Pod Hostel! Private rooms with clean bathrooms, comfy beds, and great wifi. Free parking and a shared kitchen for cooking.

    Felt lucky, no complaints!

    As young holiday goers, we loved the welcoming cup of soup and the friendly atmosphere. the addition of a spa was a great touch for those unable to visit the hot pools. the clean and comfortable bed with a privacy curtain was a nice touch. the kitchen had plenty of cooking tops and sinks, making it easy to prepare meals. Having a dedicated carpark for guests was convenient. the unlimited wifi was a bonus, although it could be a bit slow at times. the free hot pool access was a fantastic perk.

    Felt like visiting family, no complaint.

    We arrived early and were greeted with a warm welcome from the staff at Fox Glacier Pod Hostel & Inn. They quickly provided us with our room key, even though it was before check-in time. Our room was spacious and comfortable, with a double bed and a single bed, as well as a TV, kettle, and a clean bathroom. The beds were incredibly comfy, and we appreciated the added bonus of a heater during the colder winter months. Speaking of cleanliness, both the room and bathroom were spotless. We couldn't find a single fault with our accommodations at Fox Glacier Pod Hostel & Inn. We were so comfortable that we didn't want to leave!

    the onsite restaurant and bar were convenient for grabbing a delicious meal or warming up with a hot drink after a chilly walk. the food at the restaurant was excellent, and the staff members were friendly and welcoming, making a positive impact on my overall experience.

    There were several aspects of my stay that were disappointing. the kitchen facilities were poorly maintained and too small to accommodate the number of guests.

    Compact 4 bed dorm, smaller than website pics, so switched to ensuite room. Separate building with double and single bed, small ensuite. Tea, TV in room. Quiet. Ate at onsite pub/restaurant, great meal, discount for guests. Friendly staff. Will stay again if passing by.

    I recently stayed at Fox Glacier Pod Hostel & Inn and had a fantastic experience. The beds were incredibly comfortable, with their own lights and charging ports, making it convenient to relax and charge my devices. The curtains on each bed provided privacy, which was a nice touch. The hostel also offered free soup and bread in the evenings and a complimentary breakfast with cereal, bread, tea, and coffee. The location was perfect, with easy access to hiking trails and just a short distance from Lake Matheson. The value for money was exceptional, considering the amenities and cleanliness of the rooms. Despite a few minor drawbacks, overall I highly recommend this hostel.
