Beautiful place to stay - we were in a Chalet and it was cozy, comfortable and warm. The grounds are beautifully maintained and the colourful trees in Autumn are stunning! The river is right in front of the property and you can do the Tongariro River track straight from the lodge (although a little signposting would be helpful as we got a bit confused trying to find it). The staff were so sunny and helpful - a real pleasure to deal with. They cooked us a wonderful breakfast which we ate in front of the fireplace :) Would come back to stay here in a heartbeat!

Loved the 24/7 open use of the hot pools. Room was very clean and tidy. We were on a roadtrip from Waikato to Wellington and this was a great location for an overnight stop.

Loved the location, nestled in the tress next to a wonderful walking path by the river, away from the noise of the busy highway. The roomy cottage was clean and comfortable. Appreciated the (seemingly brand new) full fridge!

great and friendly hosts (breakfast package for our hike early in the morning), super breakfast, wonderful garden with birds. Perfect for Tongariro Crossing.
We walked round the mountain track anti-clockwise.
We walked round the mountain track anti-clockwise. Overall walk was a little harder than I had expected, though got progressively easier each day. Distances can be misleading as track harder and slower day one vs day four or five. Times on DOC maps reasonable guide to relative effort for each section. I loved the back section between Mangaehuehu, Rangipo and Waihohonu huts.

I did the Tongariro Northern Circuit.
I did the Tongariro Northern Circuit. I got the northern explorer from Auckland and then walked from Whakapapa to Mangatepopo hut on that first day. The whole experience was A=mazing. Met some Wonderful people. So four days on the trail and then two nights at Skotel which was great. The food at Skotel was excellent as was the staff.
Another highlight was the gondalier up to the restaurant on Mt Ruapehu. Have to ruin it by saying the service at Tongariro chateau"s cafe was dismal, not at all what you would expect.
Got the bus back to Auckland, next time I would get the train back again.

Tongariro area is magnificent.
Tongariro area is magnificent. Whakapapa still OK, but Top O Bruce has gone from a wonderland to plain bl...... awful. Loud Muzak blaring from PA outside and inside the (total ripoff cafe - small flat white nearing twice that in Taupo, and as for food.... ). Heavy machinery everywhere, heavy helicopter etc etc. Pay heaps for the nice antiseptic gondola if you wish.
