The hotel was appealing and fairly clean inside, I loved it. Staff was sweet there. Separate room, exceptionally comfortable bed and marble bathroom. Location in the middle of the city. The service was exceptional in that venue. Actually everything was great, my next choice again in Franz Josef.

The staff was approachable, the bed was good and the food was delicious. Unbeatable location, marvellous view from extremely spacious rooms. The staff did all they can for an very lovely stay. Again, it was relatively close to Our Lady of the Alps Catholic Church and other sights in Franz Josef. I loved the hotel's sports bar.

Actually everything was fantastic. Amenities and location were really great! Modern private bathroom. If you like the lovely area, then it would be an easy base for you. Also, it had easy access to west coast wildlife centre.
