Waitomo Orchard Estate B&B

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great place to stay! It's a beautiful setting with a comfy bed and sweet dogs to greet you. We checked in later in the evening, so we met Trevor in the morning. He was very kind and gave us some suggestions for places to check out which we did and we loved!"

Waitomo Lodge

"A lovely place to stay, big room, good amenities, nice big clean shower. We would stay here again."

Waitomo Village Chalets Home of Kiwipaka

8/10 Good

"This place was okay and served our purposes of being close to Waitomo Caves. Minuses: only one bath towel per person, one communal hand towel, no shampoo nor conditioner, not enough storage space in the bathroom, uncomfortable chairs. Pluses: free parking, great view of the stars on a clear night, staff will leave key, map and instructions for you if you arrive after office hours. "
