Facilities are good however. ##### Raymond Yee Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### D Oct 31, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness Compared of the price I paid, I think it was good. The location is excellent. The room is spacious, the commons kitchen was great. Only the shared shower appeared old and not clean. So I decided not shower that night because I had showered in the morning , and I am going to have a private shower the coming night. ##### D Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Agnieszka May 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Warm comfy rooms, good facilities, lovely deco, loved staying here. ##### Agnieszka Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine Jun 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful spot.

There are heaters located in rooms and bathrooms for comfort during the winter months and also a fireplace in the common lounge room. Rooms have nice, new looking carpet, comfortable beds and a hairdryer for your convenience. Also has parking on site which is a bonus. Always a warm and friendly greeting from the staff. Honestly one of the best hostels I stayed at during my visit to the South Island. Thank you to Xin Lei and the staff at Tailor Made for making my stay so pleasant. Will definitely recommend to friends and family. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/187346D01CD72FF0FB7FFD63D236E60AD08ECF4E1662075476819.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### William Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Flights](?equalTargetTab=tab-1) - [Packages](?equalTargetTab=tab-2) - [Cars](?equalTargetTab=tab-3) - [Vacation Rentals](?equalTargetTab=tab-4) - [Things to Do](?equalTargetTab=tab-5) - [Grand Suites Lake Tekapo](https://www.expedia.com/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Grand-Suites-Lake-Tekapo.h83605841.Hotel-Information) - [Lake Tekapo Village Motel](https://www.expedia.com/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Lake-Tekapo-Village-Motel.h9623439.Hotel-Information) - [Three Rivers Lodge](https://www.expedia.com/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Three-Rivers-Lodge.h107324638.Hotel-Information) - [The Godley Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-The-Godley-Hotel.h3091589.Hotel-Information) - [Haka House Lake Tekapo](https://www.expedia.com/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-YHA-Lake-Tekapo.h4922068.Hotel-Information) - [Lakes Edge Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.com/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Lake-Tekapo-Motels-Holiday-Park.h53342206.Hotel-Information) - [Marie Therese Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.com/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Marie-Therese-Bed-Breakfast.h37916298.Hotel-Information) - [Galaxy Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Galaxy-Boutique-Hotel.h74725916.Hotel-Information) - [Peppers Bluewater Resort](https://www.expedia.com/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Peppers-Bluewater-Resort.h2838173.Hotel-Information) - [Ranginui at Lake Tekapo](https://www.expedia.com/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Ranginui-BB.h41831894.Hotel-Information) - [Mantra Lake Tekapo](https://www.expedia.com/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Mantra-Lake-Tekapo.h3533863.Hotel-Information) - [Burkes Pass Country Motel](https://www.expedia.com/Burkes-Pass-Hotels-Burkes-Pass-Country-Motel.h12786581.Hotel-Information) - [Flights to Mackenzie District](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Mackenzie-District.d553248635975750749.Flight-Destinations) - [Mackenzie District Vacations](https://www.expedia.com/Mackenzie-District.d553248635975750749.Destination-Travel-Guides) - [Car rentals near Mackenzie District](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Mackenzie-District.d553248635975750749.Car-Rental-Destinations) - [Mackenzie District Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Mackenzie-District.d553248635975750749.Vacation-Rental-Destinations) - [Things to do in Mackenzie District](https://www.expedia.com/Things-To-Do-In-Mackenzie-District.d553248635975750749.Travel-Guide-Activities)
