Hidden Lake Hotel and Apartments

8/10 Good

"The location is great especially the rooms looking out to the park with the greenery and bird song."

Kauri Lodge Karapiro

10/10 Excellent

"★★★★★ Amazing farm stay near Hobbiton We absolutely loved this lodge. The privacy was exceptional, and the property is located on a beautifully maintained farm with fresh, clean country air. Being so close to Hobbiton made the experience even more special. Waking up in the morning felt like stepping into Hobbiton itself, surrounded by peaceful farmland and stunning scenery. The farm-fresh milk, jam, and butter were outstanding—simple, authentic, and some of the best we’ve ever tasted. Every detail of the property was thoughtfully cared for, and it was clear that the hosts take great pride in creating a wonderful experience for their guests. This was one of the highlights of our New Zealand trip. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and authentic countryside experience. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful place with us."

Morrinsville Motel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here as it was close to Mystery creek for Fieldays and had a great experience. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and our room was clean and well maintained. It was excellent value for money overall. The motel was quiet and peaceful, which made it easy to relax after long days walking around Fieldays. The spa pool was a real highlight, absolutely amazing and exactly what we needed to unwind. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to others looking for comfortable, affordable accommodation in the area."
