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!

We loved our stay in National park village. The owners were wonderful. Duchy gave us great advice about the Tongariro crossing (a fabulous walk) and Gill looked after us well and gave us a lift to the station. All facilities were good. Local eating options are limited but reasonable.

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.
