Great location. There is a ramp or stairs to reception and rooms. Breakfast was good, we chose to have it delivered to the room and sit and eat while enjoying the view. Easy walk to shops/restaurants and the Church of the Good Shepherd.

Room was great for a family of 4, bathroom was roomy. We had the option of taking breakfast in room or going to the dining room. We even had a view of lake Tekapo. The property was just 2 minute drive to market, restaurants, cafe shop, lake front playground for kids and tour guide operators. Great spot, just a little pricey

Magical view of the lake and the stars. The room was well appointed with a comfortable bed and a great shower and tub. But, the best part of the day, was sitting in our comfy chairs just looking out at the magnificent view of the lake, then opening the skylight at night to view the stars from our bed-magical. We would highly recommend staying at the Galaxy in Lake Tekapo.

Amazing place - stay here! Well stocked little kitchen and amenities inside are wonderful - robes, slippers, soaps, TV, shower, etc. Very, very comfortable with great views. What made it extra special was the staff - they serve free breakfast to your room in the morning or in their lobby restaurant. Since the times for breakfast service didn't work for us, they personally delivered a full continental breakfast to us the night before so we could put it in the refrigerator and have what we needed in the morning. Highly recommend staying here!
