Great and close to amenities

Good and quiet surrounding, with a few cafes and bars around. There is a spa pool available to use, just book it at the reception. The check in and check out are easy. The location is good- easy access to Whakapapa Ski field and they also offer shuttle service to Tongariro with a fee. Overall, great stay.

Walking distance or little drive to a whole range of restaurants and bars which was really convenient. We had the family room which was just the right size to fit a family of 4. To our surprise there was a pull put sofa bed which was so handy for our little ones.

The best staff

We were in the motel side. Room was very clean and nice. The staff was very friendly and helpfull. We got information about area and they took us even back to the railway station after checking out.

Very comfortable

I honestly really liked this place! It’s older, and you can tell it has a little wear and tear, but you can tell they do a good job keeping everything clean. There were plenty of blankets and pillows in the room if you wanted to add more to the bed, and the rooms were very spacious. I slept really well here and the water pressure was great in the shower. The staff was also super helpful when we brought up what hikes we had planned. They gave us lots of good tips!

Nice place to stay

Nice, welcoming facility. Room was a bit cramped for three adults. Common kitchen area was well appointed for cooking. Beds were comfortable. There is no cooling/air conditioning. We asked for and received an extension cord to allow us to place a room fan in the doorway to allow the cooler outside air into the room. Friendly staff visited us at length in the afternoon after their work was complete.
