Great stay if you are doing the Tongariro Crossing
Clean renovated rooms and a nice restaurant with amazing front desk staff (Thank you Tori!) who took care of rescheduling our shuttle to the hike and arranging for a boxed lunch for the trek.

Good for a short stay
The hotel is good for a short stay, and close to the walks around Tongariro. The room is a little tired and the beds not too comfortable but was ok for 1 night stay. The restaurant is well priced and the food was very good. We had ribs and pizza and garlic and it was large portions. The spiral bar is also well priced for beers and local wines. We like the feel of the restaurant and sitting areas, we didn’t use the hot tubs but they looked good. Overall good value just a little basic on the accommodation front.

The hotel rooms are clean, but tiny and spartan. The restaurant was very good and the laundry was convenient. The location is remote, which isn't a surprise, so dining choices are limited.
