Everything ❤️ We had an amazing stay, staff let us check in earlier which was helpful as the weather was not nice to go on the crossing 😅 Our room was clean and had everything we needed. Also kitchen and lodge was cozy and nice to hang out on a rainy day.

    The overall experience was great. No faults at all. Perfectly placed for my husband who was doing the Tongariro Crossing. Excellent facilities. Washer, dryer. Hose pipe for dirty boots. The service was brilliant too. The lodge was warm when we arrived and advice for dinner was greatly received. In walking distance of a four square for essentials is good too.

    The staff were so nice. And having a lodge cat was a bonus. My boys really enjoyed both inside and outside areas. A little hidden gem. Beautiful stay.

    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.

    Perfect lodge for taking the shuttle to the Tongariro National Park. Clean room and bathroom. Beds and the bathroom facilities are ok. Big kitchen for preparing your meals and very nice saloon/dinning hall for eating or spending some time with your friends playing board games or just reading

    I liked the room - it was cosy and spacious. Lodge is nice and has this "mountain touch". The kitchen was great and perfectly equipped. The beds were super comfortable. Howard's Lodge is the best place when you plan to visit Tongariro. Communication with personnel was ok even though we haven't met anyone.l :D

    Staff-Joy is such a happy person and goes above and beyond. She's always running around doing something. Facilities-You can really see that they are trying to spruce up the place and turn it into such a lovely place to stay. A lot of care and attention to detail is shown even as far as decorations to make it feel more homely compared to some lodges and backpackers I've stayed at. Kitchen-Kitchen is well stocked with items to use for cooking. Bed-It was comfy for me
