    I'm all for businesses creating opportunities for people to access and experience our National Parks.

    Putting those businesses within the park itself seems counter productive to that, and a bit of a dangerous precedent to set for other businesses looking to profit from our parks. The National Park boundaries are set, they should be respected.

    This is the key issue I think, thin end of the wedge. Its pretty directly contrary to the Fiordland National Park Management Plan (and the National Parks Act) - if you let them ignore those rules for one private commercial outfit to make a profit from public land it sets precedent and makes it easier for them to push bigger, more invasive commercialisation in future.

    (Although I am sure this wouldn't be the first time a private entity has been allowed to operate within a Nat. Park)

    True enough. In theory there should have to be some benefit to the public not just to a hotel owners bank balance, but its not always how it works out.

    +1 - should NOT be allowed in a National Park, very dangerous precedent. Its bang smack in the middle of the Eglinton Valley - cant see how that's not going to be an eye sore. If they have to it somewhere (on the way to Milford) then put it at Knobs Flat where there's already infrastructure and buildings, or back at TeAnau Downs where its not in the national park.
