Top Hopkins Valley Hotel Reviews

Alps Motel Apartment Twizel

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly and helpful staff. Very Modern, spacious and clean apartment"

Pukaki Air Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at Pukaki Air Lodge was amazing. Such a unique experience being right at the airfield. Not too busy with air traffic but just enough to keep us interested and fascinated by the light aircraft and helicopters with Mt Cook in the distance. Night time stargazing was an added bonus. The rooms were well appointed, comfortable and clean. The common kitchen area provided all you could need for a continental breakfast. Mary was very helpful and informative!! Would highly recommend a stay here if you have a vehicle. Easy drive to Mt Cook."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Hopkins Valley?

The tracks and roads are generally clear of snow and ice, making travel much easier.

The weather is still pleasant, and the scenery is stunning with blossoming flora or changing autumn leaves.For adventure-seeking solo travelers, the peak summer months of January and February are excellent. The longer daylight hours and warmest temperatures are great for extended hikes, multi-day treks, and fly-fishing in the Hopkins River.
