Very charming hotel! Wish we had more time to stay. The property feels very much like a ski lodge and I'm sure is gorgeous in the winter. Just as nice and more quiet in the summer!
We ate at the more casual restaurant - great food and enjoyed having drinks on the rooftop patio. We didn't have a chance to swim in the heated pool but it looked lovely. We loved learning that some of the Lord of the Rings cast stayed here when they were filming! 10/10 recommend

You wouldn’t guess it when you pull up, but the place is new and spotless. Great and super friendly service. Walking distance to restaurants.
Would stay there again.

Sue and John were such wonderful owners of the motel. They were very helpful, fetched us from the railway station and took us to town to buy our groceries. The motel had all the facilities needed and you can rent you skiing gears at the motel itself. Plenty of supply of firewood and beautiful view of Mt Ruapehu.

Our hosts were very welcoming and they tended to our every need. My wife even got to play with their kittens! Very nice place and great conversations and breakfast!

The staff was so friendly and the room was so cozy and smelled amazing! I will definitely be planning a longer stay in the future to enjoy more of the lodge and river!

The property and rooms are beautiful. The location is amazing as well. Breakfast in the morning is great and feeding the Alpacas is a great experience. The hot tub was so nice after a day of hiking!
I highly recommend staying here. You won’t be disappointed!
