I had a pleasant stay at the park hotel in Franz Josef. The rooms were spacious and clean, offering a comfortable environment, and the overall atmosphere was welcoming. However, the Wi-Fi coverage was a bit lacking, only working well near the reception area. The kitchen facilities were good, but I wish there had been clearer instructions for the stove. Despite some small downsides, it provided great value for money, and I would certainly return.

We had a decent stay at the park, though it could use some improvements. The cabin we stayed in felt a bit basic and sharing facilities wasn't the best for the price. On a brighter note, the hosts were fantastic and went above and beyond to help us, and the nearby views were stunning. The location was a bit further from the town, which was a downside after a long day of hiking.

The park is a short drive from town, which is okay, but it felt far after a long day. The views of the mountains were nice, but being a bit further out was a downside for us.

We didn't dine on-site, but the kitchen facilities in our cabin were sufficient for preparing meals. It would have been nice to have more dining options nearby.

The park has basic facilities, but considering the cost, I expected a bit more in terms of amenities. The limited Wi-Fi was also disappointing.

We had a lovely one-night stay in our campervan at this park. The reception team was very welcoming, and the facilities, like the shower and restroom areas, were clean and well-kept. The location allowed us to access the nearby tourist spots in town easily, which made finding food really convenient. However, we noticed a bit of noise from other guests, which could be a downside for light sleepers.

We stayed on a powered site that had nice grassy areas around our campervan, even though the parking was mostly on shingle.

The park is located just outside the town of Franz Joseph, making it a quick drive to both the town and the glacier.

We had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was great for visiting the Franz Josef glacier, and the units were clean and tidy, but the overall feel of the self-contained unit was quite outdated and had a musty smell. The receptionist was welcoming, which added a nice touch to our stay, but we faced issues with cramped rooms and limited support from the staff during power outages.

This park has its pros and cons. While the cleanliness and maintenance impressed me, I found the rooms a bit basic and the service could be more attentive. Additionally, the location was somewhat inconvenient as it was a longer walk into town, especially after a long day of hiking. Overall, it’s decent value for a short stay, but there’s room for improvement.
