26.06.27Just stayed for the night, the room and the bathroom were great. Would recommend to pass through for a night minimum and enjoy the town, the people are nice and the pub nearby is also great if you want to socialize.
26.06.18I really enjoyed staying at Ivory towers! The dorm is really comfortable, especially the beds although the pillows are a bit flat! Bathrooms and kitchens are clean and the sauna/hot tub are great! Really love buddy the dog, he's so cute! The only down side for me was having my food and alcohol stolen out of the fridge :( . Apparently two French guys had checked in late and there were no details for them. After that it felt a little less safe and I think it would be much better practice to take id on check in, as imagine it was a criminal issue.
26.05.28Very disappointing experience.
The accommodation itself was acceptable, but unfortunately the attitude of the owner/reception manager completely ruined our stay. We have travelled extensively and rarely encountered someone so unnecessarily rude, hostile and unpleasant in hospitality.
From the moment we arrived, we felt unwelcome and uncomfortable. Simple interactions were handled with an aggressive and condescending attitude, creating a very negative atmosphere throughout the stay.
Looking back at the other reviews, we unfortunately realised this does not seem to be an isolated experience. I genuinely wish we had paid more attention to previous guest comments before booking and avoided making the same mistake.
There are many accommodation options in the area, and sadly I would strongly recommend future travellers to read reviews carefully before choosing this place.
26.04.19It’s located not far from Lake Matheson, Fox Glacier, and Franz Josef. We stayed on the second floor—there’s no elevator, so you’ll need to carry your luggage upstairs. The kitchen is spacious and fully equipped, including a microwave.
However, the room is not very soundproof—you can hear footsteps, conversations from neighboring rooms, and doors opening and closing, which may disturb your sleep slightly. Parking in front of the building is sufficient. The shared bathroom and shower facilities are clean.
26.04.10Great value for money, comfortable beds and great location
