I had to move room 3 times and the room I ended up with I had to clean up and make the bed. I will never stay there again.

Great location for what we wanted to do. Good facilities, backpackers kitchen, bar, restaurant and lounge areas to relax in. Spa pool was nice.
The lodge is bright and colourful. We had our own bunk room which was close to the bathrooms. The kitchen was big with lots of utensils. Great location for anyone doing the Tongariro Crossing or exploring the National Park. Adjacent bar was fun to pop in to and staff at both the hostel and bar were very friendly. Can highly recommend catching sunrise, the stars and sunset.
Excellent breakfast, great location - close to the City by car, lovely clean rooms. Both rooms have their own private toilet/shower. Coffee making facilities and chilled water in the fridge in the rooms. Very quiet safe street. Would definitely stay again. Allie has great local knowledge and recommendations for eating out.
Great location in centre of National Park town. Good value hostel type accommodation. Massive kitchen and shared dining area. Definitely aged but clean.
Cheap budget accommodation with great friendly hosts and very accessible kitchen, lounge, etc. Met some lovely other people here. Shared facilities as advertised and good value for money.
Great location, Comfortable Clean rooms. Very good facilities, with heaps of outside space to enjoy outside dining or beverages. Good Communal Kitchen/Lounge/Dining area. Really well run establishment with a care for detail. The Hostel Staff were friendly and helpful. A really enjoyable experience.
Honestly, the best hostel I've ever stayed at! The owners were the most welcoming, loving and caring people. They made sure to talk to everyone, they even remembered the names of every single person who stayed there at the moment. The whole place was super clean and well kept. Kitchen had everything you need for cooking. The living room is amazing to hang out, watch tv, play games or get to know the other guests (and make some new friends!). Would highly recommend staying there. You would not be disappointed!
This motel represents very good value for money. A big space at 44 sq metres and cheaper than smaller studio units at other motels in Fitzherbert Ave. Great location - just over the road from the Botanic gardens.
Family stay for 2 nights the price suited budget cheap accommodation private bathroom with separate shower was a must kitchenette has a microwave 2 element stove top burner small fridge cutlery etc, each bed has electric blankets, tv wall heater, the rooms are clean everything we needed was there we made it work the location worked out well there's a laundromat right next door down the driveway new washing machines and dryers available 24hours, our host was lovely very welcoming and polite we'd happily stay again
Skotel is in the most beautiful location - the wilderness is on the doorstep.... just step outside and start hiking. The staff are wonderful, the rooms are great (either backpacker budget or hotel style) and the restaurant is 10/10. Room prices and restaurant prices are excellent value - nothing like city prices here! This was my third visit to Skotel - I look forward to it every time. It is also a great place to meet new people - guests mingle easily and share their day in the wonderful environment of the National Park.
