Independent in Tongariro National Park

"Staff were all super friendly and up for a chat. Chalet room was very nice and the bed was comfy, I really like the gardens around the property and the main lodge/reception :) thank you having me!"

"Was only an overnight stay on drive down south, but found the motel very pleasant, with a homely vibe."

"I booked this motel because it advertises a restaurant and bar. On arrival both were closed. If it is not open on a Sunday they should advise customers."

"Great space & walking distance to the downtown area. Super friendly & clean"

"Late check-in was easy. Room was clean and warm when we arrived. Good value for money."

"I would not recommend staying here if you want to get a good night's rest. You can literally hear everything through the walls, conversations, doors opening, footsteps, etc. Tried calling management to change my room, but they did not respond to my messages or answer the phone. Very disappointed, in particular to the response I received after I had checked out (see email acknowledging the issue)."

"Nice place, helpful and kind staff. My family and I enjoyed a good time here."

"The staff and restaurant were great. The room had no AC so it was kind of hot until the staff provided fans."

"The staff provided extremely helpful suggestions regarding what to do in our limited time there."
