    Great views of the mountains.

    Great views of the mountains. Not many eating options but it is a tiny town/village. Schnapps bar is cozy and decent pub food. Spiral restaurant buffet breakfast was a bit average, a la carte menu looked better but wasn’t available on Sunday

    Obviously the mountains are the immediate attraction.

    Obviously the mountains are the immediate attraction. Great walks to suit all abilities and energy levels. Stayed in National Park Village-but choose carefully. The trucks run all night and cause a lot of noise and vibration as they don't stick to speed limits-they also use the side roads too-so just be aware when booking rooms to choose well away from the road and side roads. Getting around the park is easy with a car-no real need for a 4WD. Wouldn't recommend bikes though given the distances. Plenty of choices for food-keep an eye out for the village food trucks as they offer really good food.

    Pretty easy to get too.

    Pretty easy to get too. Train every other day and a bus every day, if you’re not doing public transportation, a car is about the only other option. You cold fly to Taupo then get a transfer but that would be $$$$

    This apartment is perfectly located in the National Park village, which was perfect for us having just finished the Tongariro Crossing. The rooms were well equipped, and the sizeable, powerful shower was just what we needed after a hard day's hiking. We also met the owner, who was lovely and had no issues with the fact that our booking had changed from 1 to 2 people, other than being concerned that he hadn't known to be able to leave us enough towels. A wonderful stay and excellent value for money.

    Stayed in room #1. Two bedroom, very clean and nicely appointed. Great jumping off point for Tongariro NP. Schnapp's Bar has good food and drinks and is ~ a 5 minute walk away. The Alpine Crossing is exhausting but unlike any other hike in terms of landscape/scenery. It's like walking on another planet at times. I stressed about our 10 year old (less so her 14 year old brother) but she crushed it. Just take your time. And Oreos.

    This facility is part of the YHA family and up to their standards. Very knowledgeable and helpful staff, spacious and well equipped kitchen, recycling, you can use their storage if going on a multi-day trip. Easily accessible by train and bus, the Tongariro crossing shuttle also stops there. Reception is open all day, which is rare nowadays. They have a climbing wall!

    There is a large kitchen, where guests can prepare their own meals. A pub and hotel restaurant are close by, but can be very crowded. Short driving distance to National Park. We had a room with private bathroom, which was nice. The normal rooms with shared facilities are quite small. There is also a large television room with comfortable seating.

    Great spot for doing visiting the Tongariro National Park or doing the crossing. Nice view from the common room window when there's no clouds. Common room is cozy and good affordable place to stay. It very basic but good for the price and pretty much as expected.

    The front desk staff were so helpful in helping us to plan our Tongariro Crossing walk. The kitchen and dining area are well-stocked and very comfortable for preparing food and meeting other travelers. Our family room was a good size and the bathroom was clean.

    National park is a good location for the Tongariro Alpine walk. Shuttles go from there to the start, but there are better accomodation options in Turangi
