We stayed 2 nights as part of our NZ tour. The room was very small but had everything we needed. A continental breakfast was included and brought into our room. Free off street parking. FJ is a small place so the hotel was convenient for everything including a number of good eateries and a walk from the hotel (Callery Gorge). Alice May restaurant was next door. The proprietors were very pleasant, friendly and helpful. They made suggestions as to what to do when our helicopter trip was cancelled.

“Friendly, helpful staff”

The staff at Bella Vista were so helpful and polite. Rooms were super comfortable and well equipped Lovely outdoor area and great views of the glacier. Would recommend this accommodation to all.

“Very confortable.”

This place was easy to find, and off the main road, so very quiet. Check in was straight forward and the host was very informative and helpful. Fresh milk was provided. The room was on the first floor. A nice comfortable huge king sized bed was very welcome after a day of driving! The room was very clean. the bathroom was nothing special, but very clean and certainly very adequate. Parking was not a problem at all over our two night stay. Definitely a good choice for touring the area.

When you stay with Bella Vista you know what to expect and whilst there are subtle nuances that define difference locations, the experience is fundamentally the same. The hotel is located slightly away from the main street of Franz Josef, but still in a busy location. There are many restaurants within a very short walk and except for touring the region, once you park at the hotel, you don't need your car for getting around the town. We had booked a Compact Queen room, however we were put in an access room on the ground floor, which had a great deal of space and a large bathroom. As you expect from Bella Vista, everything was immaculately prepared and presented and its hard to fault any aspect of it. This room was also fairly dark, with effective drapes. We didn't have much interaction with the hosts, apart from at check in.
