Excellent Stay

This was such a nice place to stay in National Park! We were a group of 3 and very cozy. The place was clean and in a great location with a comparably cheaper shuttle to and from the Tongariro Crossing! Would definitely recommend staying here :)

Cozy and convenient

The Park Hotel in National Park was well located, cozy stay for the two of us. The bathroom was very compact but well appointed. It was handy to have a small fridge and easy to make hot drinks. We also had dinner at the restaurant and enjoyed the view across to the mountains. Service was excellent from check in, dinner service and check out. Would stay again

You can tell the rooms are a bit worn down but still functional. The room I was in had a very strong body odor scent that made the stay somewhat unpleasant. The restaurant onsite is amazing and the food was incredible. Hotel is also near gas station/convenience store, coffee/food truck with really cool owners, and a couple other restaurants. The town is really small so you can’t expect too much but for what it is it was a great time!

Hike then Sleep!

This was a very nice hotel, our room had beds downstairs and a bed upstairs. It was very clean and they supplied extra blankets. The restaurant had very good food. This is a great stay that was close after hiking the Alpine Crossing.

Clean, compact and warm room with comfortable beds, super close to tongariro national park which is where we wanted to spend a couple of days. Kids loved the split level room (we stayed in a quad mezzanine room). No microwave or sink in the kitchenette so the tiny bathroom sink is the only place to get water. The restaurant had a variety of options (including some options for vegetarians). Would recommend staying here for a night if you are intending to spend time at tongariro national park otherwise there is nothing much else to do this side.

I was disappointed with my stay at the park hotel. The room itself was warm with the radiator on, nice shower and comfy bed. However, the main issue was with the noise. You could hear absolutely everyone walking about the place and it was really loud at all times of the night. This led to a poor night's sleep and being tired the next morning for a long walk. I wouldn't recommend staying here

This was a great place for us 3 adventure motorcyclists. Weather turned bad so we were early and staff were great.. got into room early. Everything very much like a ski lodge, great atmosphere in bar / dining area.
