This property is in a lovely, mostly quiet, residential area not far from restaurants and shops. (Some neighbors seemed to be gearing up for a party one night but all was quiet by 9:30 PM.) The walk to the business district was pleasant and less than 1 mile. Staff at the hotel was very friendly and accommodating. The room and surroundings were clean and comfortable, fine for the price. Ohakune is a short drive from Tongariro National Park and refreshingly uncrowded. Restaurant choices were varied and plentiful. Bonus: a nice view of Ruapehu mountain from the hotel’s neighborhood! We would stay here again.

We were surprised by the upgrade - and it was just fabulous! Perfectly quiet for a couple of old girls having a road trip, and we really enjoyed staying with you. Ohakune had some lovely surprises too - we weren't aware of all the options available. Walking track to the falls was a bit tiring, but we made it half way and thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful surroundings.

Great location. 2 bedroom apartment is spacious. Is much better than the pictures show.

room was nice and clean, and the beds were very comfortable. kitchenette made it super easy to feed my family and not buy take aways. kids loved the trampoline! Only downside was the Wi-Fi isn't very good in the rooms we ended up having to use our data.

The Staff were very nice, and location was great. But sadly our unit was disappointing, the beds felt unclean there were stains on the sheets old makeup etc. It was very cold with no spare blankets and no electric blankets on any of the beds. Also there was no coffee plunger available in our unit. This could be a fantastic motel if these things were attended to.
Genevieve
Lack of information material about facilities available. No information on times,place and how to book breakfast. No outlets for charging your phone. 3 beds in unit and only 1 chair.

Nice Break
We had a very pleasant stay at the lodge. It was quiet and spacious and we appreciated the laundry facilities. We did have some problems with the WiFi which the owner said was due to their service provider doing some maintenance work.

The Big Kid 🐐
Picked the Ruapehu Mountain Motel and Lodge for its location (walking distance) to registration, bus to start line, prizegiving etc for the Big Kid. With a change of event course due to weather forecast ended up being walking distance to the start line so location couldn’t have been better.
Room was a little dated but comfortable for three adults. Had pretty much everything we needed was just glad I took my own pillow as the two on the queen bed seemed pretty solid old things. Would be happy to stay again.

Poorly managed
I made my reservation 5 months prior to my arrival. Disappointed that there was no receptionist when we checked in. An envelope with my name was attached to the receptionists curtain. On my confirmation receipt, it stated I could buy breakfast but no one was around to provide one. While eating at the local Thai restaurant in town, they were also a motel, they had a receptionist that gave their visitors a continental breakfast for a fee. Would not advise anyone to stay there.

Close to Turoa Ski Field
Motel is well priced and serves well as a base for Ohakune activities. Motel has facilities in duplex room ideal for a family stay. We used the spa, drying rooms and pool table. Managers are very accommodating.
Verified traveler
The heater, which resembled a cutting board attached to the wall, was useless at emitting heat. The staff provided an electric heater but we weren't able to keep it on during the night as it lit the room like the Las Vegas Strip. The blankets were extremely heavy and I found stains on the sheets.
Because the room was cold, we spent most of the night in the guest lounge as there was a fire going but that only lasted till 9pm when the area closed.

Handy but does need a little tlc.
Good location and friendly management team.
Clean and tidy but in need of refurb. Also the room was cold and damp at first, but after a good while the heater (which is old) managed to dry and heat the room. Perfectly fine for an overnight or couple of nights. I didn’t use the shared facilities, but they look clean and tidy.

Cosy and comfortable
Great location at the foot of the mountain. Super close walk to resturants and 10 min walk other shops. Very friendly and helpful staff. Room clean and tidy. The double bed was getting tired and a few necessities missing in kitchen (bread knife, tin opener). Perfect casual family friendly stay, we'll be back.
Sue
Great set up, rooms were very comfortable, kitchenette and bathroom well designed. Great location- easy access to shuttle and restaurants. My kids and I loved it! Extra special thanks to owner/manager couple who run the place. Not only were they helpful with information, but they also went out of their way to check on us to make sure we were comfortable!
Verified traveler
Cold!
Overall the room and facilities were relatively clean and tidy and the lodge is handy to the mountain and other accommodation and amenities. However, we were disappointed with the heating (or lack thereof) in the room - we were freezing! There was only underfloor heating and the room did not warm up at all - we ended up having to bunk in together with the kids to keep warm and there were no extra blankets provided. For the price paid, we would expect a warm room as a minimum.

Great little lodge close to the town
Great little motel lodge if your just looking for somewhere to stay for a few nights. Very warm rooms which is great for the winter seasons. Staff were nice would definitely recommend if your after a relaxed room!
Verified traveler
Nice but cold room
Would have been nice if room was heated before arrival as it was freezing. No electric blankets seems strange. The communal area has potential but with all lights virtually off and no heating going no one was in there. Bit of a shame as hotel has potential as it is clean and tidy. Quite a bit of foot noise from above floor. Guessing it was little kids.
