Step into a haven of tranquillity at Franz Josef Glacier Hot Pools...
Nestled among the lush native rainforest in the heart of Franz Josef, the Glacier Hot Pools provide a truly unique setting for absolute relaxation.
The West Coast is known for its water which brings life to the rainforest and shapes the surrounding landscape. This ample natural resource has been harnessed to create an experience that revives your tinana (body), hinengaro (mind) and wairua (spirit).
On offer are three main hot pools of varying temperatures, along with three secluded private pools, spa and massage treatments and a licensed café.
The pools are located in the heart of Franz Josef township at 63 Cron Street, and are walking distance from most accommodation. Franz Josef is a two hour drive from Greymouth, six hours from Christchurch and five hours from Queenstown.

Summertime at hot pools
Beautiful setting and 3 pool temperatures meant that we didn’t overheat on a hot day. Lots of individual nooks and crannies made you feel like you were the only ones there at times. The changing and shower areas were top rate too. Why 4 not 5 stars. A strange “no photos “ rule stopped us from sharing our memories with friends and family back home. Weird in this day and age.

You can’t take a photo by yourself inside the pools. They have beautiful place with a beautiful view, but you cannot registering this.

Odd
Sitting in a warm bath whilst the rain falls on you. Nothing to see. No lockers free. Changing room benches full of peoples stuff. Showers ok. Not worth the money. If it’s raining go have a few drinks but don’t waste your money here.
From Franz Josef Glacier Hot Pools - Main Pool Entry
Kia Ora Kevin, Thank you for your review and feedback. I am saddened to hear the Glacier Hot Pools did not meet your expectations at this time. We really believe it is a wonderful place to come and relax, especially when it is raining. Apologies if you were not told in your briefing for the pools, but there are indeed lockers in the change room or free shelving around the main pool areas. Safe Travels. Ngā mihi, Aimee
