About Us

Discover Franz Alpine Retreat - Tranquil Accommodation

Our accommodation is located at Franz Josef amongst some of the most stunning scenery New Zealand has to offer, Glacier Country, in the heart of the Southern Alps.

We are 4.5 kilometres far from town. It’s good to have your own transportation because it will only take you 5 minutes driving from our accommodation to township, still close enough to make use of all the wonderful things Franz Josef has to offer. As we are a rural and tranquil retreat, you can enjoy a real peaceful New Zealand night here.
