"We just stayed one night and chose because of location. The park is lovely with lots of open space. Checkin was easy and staff were friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable enough and the small kitchenette was helpful. It was very easy to get to the glow worm caves and tour, just minutes up the road. We could’ve walked if it had not been raining. Internet was a bit spotty but we could get done what we needed to. "

"The manager was so wonderful and helpful. I would recommend this motel to any travelers. It was centrally located to most of the sightseeing in the North Island, kiwi house, glow worm caves, geo thermal geysers, botanical gardens, shopping and places to eat. Our bed was very comfortable, the other 2 which the kids used were too soft for them so we took them back to their tiny house. Check in and check out was extremely easy. I give these accommodations a 10 plus."

"We stayed here with our 2 kiddos ages 10 & 12. It was clean and cute and the kids were totally blown away by the experience of staying in a hobbit house! It definitely has a motel vibe, and the kitchenette is small, but there were some decorating touches that really added to the hobbit feel. The owners provided space heaters that were really nice to have, but the bunk room definitely developed a musty smell that we couldn’t get rid of. The property is really pretty to walk around and super close...
