The location was excellent, providing easy access to everything I needed during my stay. The bed was incredibly comfortable, giving me a great night's sleep after a long day of exploring.

    The rooms were comfortable and well-equipped, with a kitchenette for easy meals. The drying room was convenient for skiers. The hot tub and sauna were a nice addition for a small fee. Good communication and friendly staff. Epic mountain views.

    The hotel offers great value for money with comfortable beds and cozy duvets. The attention to detail in the rooms, especially with the stunning views of Ruapehu, is magnificent. The location in the center of town is ideal for exploring and there is a supermarket within walking distance.

    Everything was ok, no improvements necessary.

    Got free coffee vouchers and breakfast croissants every morning. Located in the heart of the city, everything was in walking distance. Free Wi-Fi.

    Rooms were too small for the price. Noisy at night, hard to sleep.

    great stay, exceeded expectations. peaceful and comfortable room. delicious breakfast at the cafe, and helpful staff made our golf trip enjoyable.

    I recently had an amazing stay at a lodge in Ohakune. The hotel offers great value for money with affordable prices and attention to detail. The location is perfect as it is in the center of Ohakune, close to all the attractions and amenities. The staff were friendly and provided excellent service. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with stunning views of the surrounding area. I was pleasantly surprised to find that breakfast was included, making it even more convenient.

    The only small issue was that the rooms were a bit on the smaller side, but it was still manageable.

    The location was fairly convenient as it was right next to a busy highway, but be prepared for noise levels that may disturb your sleep. the room had a decent view and was comfortable enough to stay in for a night. the leisure facilities were alright, but as someone who likes being close to the beach, I appreciated the proximity to the water.

    The hotel seemed to be understaffed which made for slow service.

    The complementary coffee and utensils were nice to have. The location of the hotel was close to our desired activities. the hot tub and sauna were great after a long day of exploring.

    Our room was smaller than expected and located close to a main road where there was a lot of noise from heavy trucks passing by all night. The lack of air conditioning made it stuffy and difficult to sleep.

    The room at this hotel was cozy and comfortable, perfect for our needs. The size was just right for us and the bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. We were pleasantly surprised by the option to wash and dry our clothes using the 2 Dollar Coin machines. This attention to detail made our stay more convenient and hassle-free. The location of this hotel in the center of town was ideal. It allowed us easy access to all the attractions and amenities of Ohakune, making our stay even more enjoyable. we had a pleasant stay at this hotel and would certainly consider returning. It was a great option for those traveling on a budget and we would happily recommend it to others.

    We had a minor issue with the EV charger upon arrival, but the hotel staff quickly resolved it the next morning. Additionally, we still managed to charge our vehicle for a few hours, so it didn't significantly impact our overall experience.

    We had a great stay at this hotel. Best aspects were its cleanliness, friendly staff, tasty breakfast, and convenient location very close to town centre and the start of Old Coach Road bike trail. We appreciated the comfortable beds and soft sheets, and had no issues leaving our car parked there all day while we explored the city.

    Nothing, no complaints at all. The hotel provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay and we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again when visiting this city.

    I recently stayed at this lodge in Ohakune for a snowboarding trip. The rooms were modern, clean, and well-furnished. The bathroom exceeded my expectations with its cleanliness and tidiness. The staff was extremely helpful, organizing our shuttle to the Tongariro Crossing and even recommending a great bar and burger joint nearby. The location was also convenient, with a supermarket and cafes within walking distance. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone visiting the area.

    100% Recommend this hotel.
