Mount Cook Village is a great location if you are planning to do some walks in the area. We did the Hooker Valley Track, Sealy Tarn Track, and the Tasman Glacier View after which we were exhausted and travelling to another location would have been a bit much. Staying at the village was the best decision. At night you can travel slightly out to get the most exceptional views of stars and in the morning you wake up to unbelievably beautiful views of mountains. If you are lucky you might just get some snow.

Hooker valley trek is the main attraction there and it is closed right now
The alternate to that trek is the Sealy Tarns trek which is pretty okay
There are not too many options to eat there so it is a better option to buy your own food before you get here as there arent grocery shops here as well.

We loved the convenient location of the mount cook village.
We loved the convenient location of the mount cook village. It was nice being so close to the hermitage where all the activities were based from. Even though the motel/lodge was less luxurious than the hermitage, the rooms were still very lovely (and had heated floors!). Although it wasn't the best value compared to other hotels we stayed in during our trip, the convenient location makes it very worth it.

Situated in the middle of the most fabulous senic environment Mount Cook Village offers a huge variety of shorter or day hikes that bring you into the fabulous nature of the Aoraki National Park.
In this area with the nature that sourrounds you here you you can't be other than lucky having had the opportunity to experience this.

Very quaint little set up here so you need to be well prepared as there is only one up market hotel with cafe style restaurant during the day and a fantastic restaurant for dining costing approximately $80 per person for the buffet which was very nice.
Outside of that there isn't anywhere to get any other food supplies apart from you bring.
It is a stunning location especially when you venture out into the many hiking trails provided and come across the glacier lakes and rivers

We had a great mid-winter trip to the village.
We had a great mid-winter trip to the village. It never fails to amaze. Most food types are covered but be careful with your expectations as to what restaurants cafes or bars are open for eating and drinking in the winter period.

In Mount Cook village are no possibilities to go out at night. This is why everyone in the hostel is gathering in the community areas and as a solo traveller you get easily in touch with other travellers.
Very clean, very well equipped. Even offer blankets in case you get cold.

It's a lovely room in a lovely hotel, but the hotel is enormous and the rooms very expensive, particularly as you then need to pay another $40+ for breakfast! Nice products in the bathroom and comfy bds though. And the location is fantastic.

Amazing view of Tasman Glacier. Spacious room and well equipped kitchenette. Quiet environment allowing us to appreciate what Mount Cook has to offer. Conveniently situated close to walks, visitors centre and Hermitage Hotel.

Just loved Mount Cook, and Aoraki Alpine Lodge!
The views were amazing, and the hospitality top notch.
The rooms and bed was so warm and comfortable, especially with us visiting in the month of June.
