If you ask anyone along the way they'll tell you Te Anau itself hasn't much to offer. Like ourselves, you are probably stopping there for a cruise out to Milford and/or Doubtful Sound. Well, we loved the town (all 8 blocks of it) and the lake. Radfords is right on the main road just before you enter the main area... more

We have just returned from a holiday in the South. Radfords was spacious, spotlessly clean and well appointed. Kerri is great - she did our bookings for us to go to Milford, the glow worm caves and Doubtful sound and gave great advice about the order to do these in and which trips would suit our family. She also told... more

We turned up with the intention of staying one night, but extended our stay to two nights as we liked the motel so much. I was shown two one-bedroom units, one on the ground floor and one on the upper floor. The upper floor ones are much nicer; larger and lighter and with views across the car park and road... more

Lovely spacious rooms, with very good facilities, full kitchen, comfy bed and sofa etc. All spotlessly clean. Our unit had the spa bath (not all have) and large TV. The owners are really very friendly and helpful. Motel is in an excellent location for Te Anau boat trips, and is close to the town centre for shops and restaurants. Even... more

We had a nice room with a good view of the lake. The town centre is only a few minutes walk where there is a good choice of restaurants. more

Radfords Lakeview Motel is clean, comfortable and service is friendly, however it is quite expensive compared to other comparable motels we stayed in during our 2 month stay in New Zealand. Large lounge/dining area with separate bedroom, well equipped if you choose to eat in as we did. Access is through large sliding doors onto front balcony with table and... more

Arrived on spec and chose this motel for its location across the road from the lake, and only 10 minutes walk from the town centre. Very friendly and helpful reception, room was quite adequate, and we were directed to a couple of nice restaurants in the town - we chose Keplers. It was the most expensive motels on our 5... more

We stayed 2 nights here. The room were immaculate and comfortable. We were on the top deck and had a good view down onto the lake. Kerry on the front desk was very pleasant and helpful and advised where to have dinner each night. We used the laundry facilities here which were good and reasonably priced. more

We were quite disappointed with the place. Despite booking months in advance we were told on arrival that the only room left was unit number 1. Beware of unit number 1! Firstly it does not really have a lake view. The only thing that you can see from the room is cars parked in front of your own window, and... more
