Burkes Pass Motel was lovely for our short stay in the Lake Tekapo area. Easy check in/check out. Felt like we were on a farm retreat with the garden, hens, and sheep on the property. Very clean room and friendly staff :)
It was pretty much the only accommodation in town and was just a 15 minute drive from Lake Tekapo. Very reasonably priced. Owners were very friendly and were happy to chat and offer any advice. The room was big and spacious and had everything we needed. Was a great place to just chill out and admire the stars at night. Highly recommended.
The property needs a lot of care . It’s very old and tiny, super basic amenities . I paid almost $400 . Compared to a 3 bedroom modern apartment in other areas we lived in and paid less than $200. I know where to look next time . The lady at the desk when we checked in is friendly and helpful though .

We really enjoyed our stay at Burkes Pass Country motel! The rooms were clean and cosy and the beds were comfortable to sleep in, much needed after a long drive from Christchurch! We stayed here while visiting Lake tekapo and the drive through burkes pass was beautiful
Everything was terrific, especially the sheep and lambs in the backyard. My stat was very comfortable and I’d be happy to recommend this accommodation unreservedly.
Megan our host was amazing. Took us out back to feed the lambs which was cool. Lent us an air fryer for our dinner and graciously let me put my kazillions of ice packs in her deep freeze.
Clean comfy room overlooking mountains and farmland. Friendly cat who jumped on the bed with us for cuddles in the morning and two cute little dogs. Beautiful fresh roses in our room from
Megan’s beautiful garden.
Great place to stay away from the hustle and bustle. Would be super gorgeous in the winter with snow around.
Great historic little area Burkes Pass
Burkes Pass Country Motel was very enjoyable. It was quite small but had everything we needed. Bed was comfortable with amazing sheets. Bathroom very clean and pressure in shower was great. It was very nice to watch the lambs and the rabbits. Thank you for a nice stay.
Very nice room with excellent location, clean & comfortable. Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by the friendly reception staff. Would definetely recommend this place.
