The views of the Tongariro mountains around National Park are excellent. It is a quiet little village with a good bar. There is no shop so buy your food before you head to National Park. National Park is an excellent base if you are planning to do the Tongariro Alpine Crossing walk as you can get a shuttle to and from the walk from here.

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

Always enjoy the atmosphere in this beautiful rugged environment.
The Walks are very nice with beautiful scenery in every direction. Ohakune is also an interesting town with much to enjoy with cafe's, quaint eateries & many options for accommodation.
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!
Awesome place to stay at. felt very clean and and awesome location in the national park. The owners were super accommodating to us when we had realised late at night we forgotten our option of breakfast. Also was able to arrange the shuttle to pick us up from the accomodation to the Tongariro crossing making our trip completely stress free. I couldn’t recommend this place more and will happily stay again and recommend to our friends.
Very close to the Ketetahi Carpark for the Tongariro Crossing. Mobile phone service with Spark only - none for Vodafone or 2 Degrees. Good to know for anyone considering future bookings :-) Also make sure to bring your cooking pots and utensils, and own bowls, cups, plates and cutlery as in the description - the kitchen ovens, fridges and microwaves are there to use but you must bring your own cooking and eating gear.
The staff were so helpful providing us with information on what to do instead of the Tongariro crossing as the weather was not ideal and the buses cancelled. The cabin we stayed in was perfect, everything we needed. The kitchen was great, enough space and well equipped. The bathroom facilities were very clean and had music playing which was nice! Well located for Tongariro National Park
We liked the location with its views of Mt Ruapehu, Ngarahoe and Tongariro. Easy parking. Good meal in a pleasant restaurant (though slow service). Room was clean and well lit. Beds comfortable and plenty of power sockets. Couch to watch TV but no desk. Ours was a smaller than normal room. We liked the hotel overall but felt we had not experienced the best they could offer.
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 location at National Park Village. The quad room with ensuite was a good size. clean and tidy. Our son loves the climbing wall located inside the property and the mini gold just next door. Excellent base for exploring Tongariro National Park and/or the Tongariro Alpine Crossing. The shuttle for the crossing stops just outside.
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.
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.
We booked here last minute as we had changed our plans for the Tongariro Alpine Crossing Hike. Due to double booking we were upgraded as it was our honeymoon. The rooms were basic but just what we needed for a night stay before the hike. Very compact.
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.
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.
Clean and spacious rooms. We also liked the way they help you organize the Tongariro Alpine Crossing, from renting out hiking boots to providing shuttle service to and from there.
This accommodation was very affordable. But you get what you pay for. It is a very basic accommodation. Good placement in National Park and is close to Tongariro crossing.
