We stayed in Ohakune to ride the Old Coach Trail - a walking and cycling trail that runs between Ohakune & Horopito. It's a grade 3 trail and we rode it both ways but most people get a shuttle to Horopito and ride it one way. Lovely trail with thick bush, viaducts and views to Mount Ruapehu.
There are a reasonable number of restaurants/cafes in Ohakune, considering it's a small town. We had dinner at Osteria, which was OK. Utopia had nice coffee and pastries.

We re-visited the Chocolate Eclair shop after a number of years, now under new management, eclairs still amazing. Nice town with the accent on it's access to the snow fields. In the winter season the town would be buzzing but in April very quiet.
Our fish and chip dinner was very disappointing in spite of glowing internet reviews, wouldn't recommend. We should have asked a 'local'

Really enjoyed our dinner at Osteria - Italian, lovely atmosphere, attentive staff, delicious food, very popular. Enjoyed a 3 hr return walk into the Hapuawhenua Viaducts along the Old Coach track (need vehicle/shuttle to get to start) and great area for mountainbiking. Went for a drive up the mountain road with awesome views, and a stop at a nearby waterfall. Then a 1 hr native bush walk ( Mangawhero Forest walk) where friendly little fantails and robins flew about and you could hear the whoosh of wood pigeon high in the trees. Dinner at the PowderKeg - a pub setting with dining area. Again, lovely food and within walking distance of accommodation this time. Good supermarket in town and looked around shops (some vacant as is the case with many small rural towns now) and lovely playground/walkway at the Carrotland Adventure Park, then morning cuppa at the Chocolate eclair shop before departing town.

We went to Ohakune to walk the Tongariro Alpine crossing.
We went to Ohakune to walk the Tongariro Alpine crossing. it's a 35/40 min drive to the car park.
We didn't arrive until the afternoon, settled in then went out for dinner.
Hiked the next day and chilled the day after which we were very glad to rest as the hike for incredible but my body was a bit sore the next day!!
Left after checkout on the 3rd day.
The best place for dinner was the Cyprus tree (book as it getting really busy) it was one of the pricier places we ate but definitely worth it.
Osteria was nice too, cheaper, and had more of a pub feeling.
We went to the Mountain Rocks cafe for breakfast- it was cheap and cheerful. The coffee was very nice.
we had food off the menu but they had lots of cabinet food which looked nice too. Savoury and sweet treats.
Ohakune is a very small town, it suited us perfectly as we had activities to do. Lots of small walks and a waterfall too.

Very likely quieter in Summer than Winter.
Very likely quieter in Summer than Winter.
Lots of walks of easy access, some without a car. Lots of trail rides (MountainstoSea).
Enough shops + New World (small version of it!) and heaps of cafés and restaurants make Ohakune an easy town to venture from in Summer.
Large selection of accommodation, from backpackers to chalets to Powderhorn Chateau.
We arrived at Ohakune Railway Station and looked at our transport options which were very limited. We called the accommodation to ask for advice and the owner - Denis - said he would be right over to pick us up - how kind. The room was just lovely and had a kitchenette so we could cater for ourselves. The motel had a hot tub which we used on both nights of our stay - just great. Ohakune was a great little town and we enjoyed our stop off here very much.
This was excellent for the cost. It is a 'backpacker' type accomodation but was clean, cosy, everythinng worked well, staff were very helpful. If you are on a budget you will be very pleased, if you just like to save you will be very happy here. If you want luxury look elsewhere. But clean comfortable quiet handy, this is great. We are mid 60's and could easily pay more but like to save and we liked it and would stay here again.
Frankie and Hugh's felt like home away from home.
Marlene and Wayne were great host and made every effort to make us feel welcome and comfortable. We found the property clean, spacious and well maintained. The breakfast was good and we very much enjoyed our stay at the property.
Gables is next to the Mountain to Sea cycleway which you can also use to walk to the start or cycle to Old Coach Road which will take you all the way to Ohakune. The unit is very new clean and spacious. Wonderful continental breakfast with fruit and snacks which were very nice.
The Gables B&B is both very spacious, well equipped with a small kitchen, and super cozy! If you are hiking in the park nearby, this is a great place to stay. The star gazing at night is also fantastic since there is so little light pollution!!
A very handy motel with good facilities. It was very clean and had all the good motel features one would expect. It was roomy. It was in a good location within walking distance ro driving distance if preferred of the small township of Ohakune.
Perfectly located to walk into Ohakune. Spacious for 2 people. A well equipped kitchen. Lovely tiled bathroom with huge shower - seems to have been recently done up. Very clean throughout. Great to have parking right outside.
Being so far from the township, having the restaurant and bar was a big plus. On site undercover parking for our motorcycles was a bonus.
Some of our party were located some way from the main hotel in "villa" accommodation.
It was so clean, probably the cleanest place I have ever been to including hotels.
Also they had a drying room which was very handy.
Their spa is amazing and clean, just what we want after snowboarding.
The location of this accommodation was very beautiful. We had a perfect view of Mount Ruapehu which was just amazing! Having washing facilities was also very helpful as we are a family of 4.
Hot tubs were amazing, bed was comfortable, good value for money, amenities in bathroom were nice, location was good. More backpacker than lodge but overall was really nice.
Called a backpackers but we had our own double room and bathroom. Right in the town and wonderful view of the mountains. Price was way lower than the competition.
Great space for a family with access to the facilities of the hotel, but the freedom of a house. Having the pool and restaurant right next door was great.
