Fantastic location, the room was very clean, had the best nights sleep of our holiday here, and the shower was AMAZING. My daughter left her beloved LambLamb behind, and as soon as we noticed, LambLamb was on the courier the very next day. 5 stars isn't high enough for this place. We will definitely be back.

Great well equipped 2 bedroom apartment. Parking outside our front door was convenient. The bedrooms are a couple of steps down from mainfloor, wasnt a problem for us. Great food at Schnapps down the street, reasonable prices, large portions and very good.

this is a wonderful place to stay. Great welcome. Offered another room because the host thought a top bunk would be difficult. Fabulous warm lounge. A special gear drying room. Great kitchen . In the reviews June 2023 a woman complained about the signs but some people in hostels and b/ps almost need a death threat to remind them to clean up.

The best thing about this place are the people there. Gillian and John were kindness personified. Gillian offered to come pick me up from the train station and guided me well when the tour I had book was cancelled, helping me complete my trek. The packed lunch, their breakfast options and spa pool after a hard day of climbing were all perfect. Highly recommend this place for the warmth and affection of the hosts.

    The management is chaotic. I lost my ski poles.

    The management is chaotic. I lost my ski poles. It took me an hour to find them among three girls. I found that all their equipment was someone else's. I was shocked. There were too many novices. My friend's child was hit three times in one day. It was really dangerous.

    We loved our visit. Fantastic views and quality time.

    We loved our visit. Fantastic views and quality time. Easy to get around in a standard car. Weather conditions were clear and bright, mild cold temperatures so a very minimal amount of ice on the road. We recommend the sky waka gondola. The skotel alpine resort is a good place to stay.

    The isite leaves a lot to be desired.

    The isite leaves a lot to be desired. It could easily go from barely adequate to basic competence by putting boards outside stating the office is closed. As walkers are supposed to register their walks on the mountain you wonder how accurate their information is when the office is closed and there isn’t even a notice board outside for walkers to use to show they’ve left or returned. The village in summer, now the Chateau is closed, has very little available accommodation. There is a shop for basics and Skotel runs a great restaurant and bar.

    Absolutely recommend the 2 hour walk to Taranaki Falls.

    Absolutely recommend the 2 hour walk to Taranaki Falls. You can do it in sneakers, some parts are lovely bush right alongside the river. The landscape keeps changing. Its beautiful and the air is so fresh. There's a table at the falls so take your picnic and stop for a while. Get your caffeine fix from TNT Pataka Food Truck at Whakapapa Holiday Park, they make a decent coffee and the food looked good too. Unfortunately some places in the area closed due to staff shortages, so it might pay to check for what is open when you visit.

    Hi, It is better to plan your trip for at least two days. You can enrol your kids to ski school at the nearby school for a longer duration trip so that they learn the art of skiing. Bringing chains with the car will help you to revisit the Whakapapa skiing location often and reduce the commute cost. All in all, it was good to see snow all around especially if you are coming from the northern part of NZ.

    Meant to say in my review last night that we had a lovely waitress for dinner, young girl,Lisa? And the main reason we didn't pay for the dinner was because it came 10past10pm, besides one was not eatable.

    This is a very nice location but it is rather a backpacker style hotel but priced much higher. The stuff is very young but not very nice, always felt like they are bored. The dinner with the Lamb Schank was excellent, but the breakfast was average.

    The view looking at the mountain was absolutely stunning. Next to the hotel there are easy walks, which was perfect. The spa is nice to book. There Is also kitchen for you to use and cook your own meal.

    A great novelty hotel. It’s good to have been to say ‘yes, I’ve been’ and ‘yes, the high tea is all that’. The Ruapehu Room has an olde world charm and the cocktails are grand.

    Excellent hostel! They book the shuttles for you for the Tongariro Crossing. Comfy, choice of communal kitchen or restaurant for meals. Cosy alpine feel.
