Twizel is a great base for all the wonderful activities the region has to offer--dark skies, Alps to Ocean, Āoraki, incredible lakes, hot springs, hiking. A lot of very good restaurants with something for all tastes. Two or more grocery stores, with great wine selections and customer service. Great outfitters for biking.

We have been here a few times now and love it. It is the gateway to Mt Cook - we have done a heli hike, some wonderful walks and tramps, taken in the rivers and lakes, soaked in the hot tubs, eaten at local restaurants, shopped in the local stores, star gazed .... the list goes on.
The locals are super friendly - Twizel is just down the road from Tekapo but is nowhere near as busy or commercial. Accessible from Christchurch or Queenstown - you can fly into one, rent a car and fly out from the other, or just do a round trip. We will be back !!

Restaurants and cafes very busy and some were closed. Since it was Easter Sunday and the finish of Warbirds Airshow, we had difficulty finding somewhere to have dinner and certainly no place for breakfast.

Twizel is a small town but growing, with new housing areas on the edge of town and spreading out from there. It is mainly a holiday town but has a core of permanent residents.
It has a nice wee shopping area, good restaurants and is handy to the other lakes in the area and to a ski field in winter. It also gives easy access to Aoraki Mt Cook and the Waitaki Valley.

Cute town.
Cute town. It has what one needs to enjoy the getaway—groceries, pharmacy, gas, some clothing stores. And, most importantly, nice people who—in spite of the numbers of tourists who are in and out of town—are kind and helpful. Thank you, Twizel!

Nice little place with easy access by car to several lakes and the Hooker Valley walk. Nice river walk with views to Mt Cook.
Twizel has few tourists that we saw and has a very different feel to it than Tekapo, which we didn’t like at all.
We didn’t eat out in Twizel, but we did see a few restaurants, we cooked at the house as had great facilities there.
Good supermarkets.
We stayed two nights here and there are heavy snow in the first days, Mary gave us a big warm welcome in such cold day. The hotel is just near the small airport and you will have a good view for mountain even it is far away. The room is quite big compared with others, also there is a shared dinning room and you can cook with your own food, many magazines of airplane in the 2nd floor if you love if you are a fan of airplane.
This accommodation is perfect for larger groups, offering ample space, every room has its own bathroom.
Very cozy, especially with the fireplace.
The location is a major plus, easily accessible and close to Twizel, but also not a far drive from the awesome landscapes in the area. Our overall experience was great and would definitely book again.
The house was beautiful, very clean and had everything we needed (the kitchen was exceptionally well stocked). The setting was gorgeous with great outdoor spaces and heaps of parking and room to turn around (which was handy with us having a boat). A little outside Twizel on a nice quiet street and nice and close to the lake.
The property is a modern three bedroom holiday home of a good size with most of the amenities of home. A large fridge and a washing machine were appreciated as was the outside seating area. The location is quiet and seems to mostly be other holiday homes. Not too far from the shops where there were several places to eat.
We booked three cabins for us as a family. Apparently, Booking.com randomly rsvped three cabins split across the holiday park. That is of course extremely difficult when traveling together with shared luggage. Friendly staff sorted it out and gave us an upgrade so we could be together, but not without questioning it.
The staff were really nice and let us stay in the lounge past close, that was really nice to finish watching a movie.
The cabin was just what we needed. Comfy bed, warm duvet and we got a private parking spot. Facilities are great. Good warm shower and kitchen is well maintained.
Thanks Twizel Holiday Park
Mountains chalets was at a great location, super close to town center. The room was super clean and the bed was very comfortable. I'd definitely choose Mountain Chalets again if ever visiting Twizel or Mt. Cook.
Clean, tidy, spacious unit. Cosy and warm. People in Twizel were very friendly and helpful with information about things to do and where to eat.
Would definitely go back and would stay at Colonial Motel again.
Loved the cabin. Very clean and well appointed. Comfortable bed. The city of Twizel lost water due to a broken water main while we were there but we were kept aware of the progress made on the repairs.
Nice, self-contained unit. Had parking, a nice view, and was convenient to the things I was in Twizel to do. Quiet and private. Good little kitchen and well furnished
