    Hostel with a great location to the Tongariro National Park. Friendly Staff, big kitchen and shuttle service. Best of all, there is a climbing hall in the hostel! Highly recommend to stay here!

    We had a nice stay in double room as family. Ensuite bathroom, clean towels, overall good value. Even option to cook on shared kitchen. Check-in was smooth. I think I would stay at least one night longer to better explore national park.
