Central location with a restobar and mini golf course just beside, and fuel station/convenience store within 2 mins walking distance. Shuttles from to/from Tongariro Crossing starts from the hostel and can be booked directly at the reception, which is very convenient. Showers are consistently hot, which is really needed after a long day of hiking. Kitchen well equipped. Overall this is the perfect hostel to stay in National Park.

Excellent place for hiking and trekking. Place is near by famous mountain area. If require, all the hiking gears can rent from near by shop. As an alternative to Alpine crossing, I recommend Taranaki falls, Lower Tama and Upper Tama lakes trekking.

It’s a great place to visit if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of life. Venture into the outdoors there are so many good walking tracks and of course in the winter when the snow comes skiing as well!

It's a great base for exploring Tongariro National Park's hiking trails. Most trails are within a 10-minute drive. Keep in mind that the village only has two restaurants. Personally, I recommend the pub next to the mini golf for a good meal.

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

We love that the accommodation is centrally located in National Park village (not that the village is big). Graeme & Lynley also sent us clear instructions how to get into the house all by ourselves, which was really convenient as we travelled after work and reached there quite late in the evening. Everything in the accommodation really makes us feel like "home". There were even kitchen staples that we could use to cook our meals! Love it!
Great location for those doing the Tongariro Alpine Crossing, as the shuttle will pick you up in front of the hotel. Comfy beds, though the twin room did feel a bit cramped. Solid buffet breakfast and nice restaurant. The hot tub was amazing for a post hike soak. Highly recommended! Also, check their website for a special package for visitors doing the crossing!
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.
We had a wonderful stay at the Tongariro crossing lodge, even though the weather was a little rainy and moody. Having a pleasant environment with a lot of walks around and suggestions from the staff was really helpful. we can confirm as per everyone’s reviews that the breakfast is really nice as well.
It was a nice peaceful area and was close to Tongariro crossing which is what i was there for. I didn't use any of the facilities basically just the room, it had a heater in there so was good to keep warm. Seemed to be pretty clean. Staff friendly, no issues really
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.
Tracy and Thomas are extremely welcoming, and do everything to make you feel at ease! They provide everything you need to enjoy Tongariro National Park in excellent conditions. Cleanliness, calm, living space and a pleasant kitchen, everything is perfect!
Room was good, several bathrooms to use in the hall. Did not use the kitchen. There are several restaurants and bars in town. Close to the National Park (about 10 minute drive) and skiing. Sink in kitchen, also a small shop onsite for snacks and sodas.
Great little lodge. Handy to National park, and very warm and cosy setting. Wasn’t expecting much for the really cheap rate, but it was really nice, and a perfect place to rest up after a full day exploring the walks around Tongariro national park
Very clean, well organized, kitchen fully equipped! Got the room for myself, what a luxe! The owners are also really loveable and the place is well located especially if you want to do the national park.
Very quiet and perfect for a good rest.
Clean comfortable accommodation with good kitchen facilities, helpful friendly staff, great owners, transfer to Tongariro crossing and other places, good lounge for wet weather, drying facilities - all at a very reasonable price
Stayed in the "ski lodge"part of the place. Hostel-like atmosphere. Spacious common area, but a little cold and steril.
The whole village seems to need to recover from the pandemic/lockdown.
Excellent stay with friendly staff. The room was very clean and met our expectations.
The spa was just what we needed after walking the Tongariro Crossing.
