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. 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.

That magnificent view! I literally kept the blinds open the whole night so I could see the snowy mountains, the clouds, and the stars.
The room was clean and the hotel has its own cafe, breakfast and dinner buffet etc. I enjoyed the dinner there. The bed mattress is a bit too soft for my liking but that didn't affect my partner.

Very clean, well maintained lodge with good rooms for a lodge - we had a studio with kitchenette with french doors onto our own terrace . Communal rooms are great - large kitchen for communal cooking with several large tables and sofas opening into a deck with basically the same view of Mount cook as the Hermitage hotel !

Everything. The Greatsights bus stops right in front of the door. Haka House is only 15-min walk to Hermitage Hotel where you can get freat food and tours. Highly recommended!
