Fully equipped little apartment. Spotlessly clean and modern. Includes a sofa which was a great bonus - so comfortable as was the bed and the sheets felt luxurious! The little extras in the bathroom, perfect. The motel is boutique size and is located in a quiet area away from the main road. Owners were lovely. Loved it!

A lot of thought went into making the apartments cozy and welcoming. I’ve never seen so many kitchen supplies etc. at the ready for guests. Truly felt like a home away from home.

    We lived in Omarama approximately 30 years ago. It was lovely to see the progress in the town. There is plenty of places to eat out and all of them offer a good range of food, with friendly efficient staff.

    Often overlooked as a passing point to more exotic destination, this little stop over town has a few worthy attractions; the Clay Cliffs, the Ahuriri River, the Hot tub and the Glider rides etc. It is also near Twizel and Lake Ohau too.

    Great little settlement - the Clay Cliffs were spectacular and a definite must-see. The Hot Tubs were so lovely afterwards - very private and in a peaceful outdoor setting. Absolutely loved them. Had a meal at the local pub which was also very good.

    There are two places to eat in the village.

    There are two places to eat in the village. A hotel which caters for tour parties. The bufet looked average. The ala carte menue, which looks interesting is not available every night (barman said). It was available when I was there, but the staff seamed very reluctant to offer it. The steak was limp (looked like it had been cooked in a sous vide, but not flash fried at a high enough temperature) and everything was way, way over salted!!! I was Would not recomend it. The pub was lovely, good food, great staff and welcoming. Would recomend it.

    It was a spur of the moment booking as we had a problem with our car. Great hotel for overnight or several days. Friendly helpful staff, clean rooms if a bit "tired". Arrived late and left early so didn't eat on the premises.

    A pleasant, quiet place to get away from the 'madding crowd'! I love the scenery and climate there and the locals we met were friendly and helpful. I recommend The Pink Glider for a meal as well as the kebab truck on the highway. Both have super staff and good food. Omarama provides a really pleasant holiday get away.

    The studio was a welcoming comfortable suite with everything a traveller needs. It was exceptionally clean and was easy to relax in. The location is amazing and it was a great alternative to rushing on to the busy noiseyness of Queenstown. The pub down the road is great and the food of more than city standard. There’s also a great breakfast barn around the corner. The motel and locality is well recommended.

    We stayed at Sierra Motel as a stopover between Dunedin and Christchurch. The location is beautiful, especially the drive along SH8 past Lake Pukaki with wonderful views of Mount Aoraki. Our room was spacious, comfortable, with a modern kitchenette, very comfortable bed and everything was spotlessly clean.

    Very nice common space with amazing views of the mountains.. The atmosphere of the hotel was very relaxing and reminded us of our old family house (outdated but clean and feels quite homey). The general manager and team are doing their best to restart this hotel after the prolonged closure during Covid
