I was there in the ‘off’ season for skiing but it was great for getting some spring time hikes in. Great location for hiking to Waitonga Falls and also being able to walk to the town of Ohakune. Staff were friendly and helpful. ##### Shelby Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Jim Jan 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Clean and comfortable.

It's not 5-star but it doesn't pretend to be - it's just a good solid Kiwi motel! It's got a nice quiet location, is always very clean and tidy, and is great value for money. The Hobbit will always be our first choice whenever we're in the area. ##### Roger Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Matthew Sep 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The parking is pretty cramped, but the unit was nice and tidy. ##### Matthew Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Lisa Feb 4, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities The bunk beds were so creaky I thought I was going to squash my friend sleeping on the bottom and the room smelt a bit weird, but other than that the bathrooms were all very clean and the reception lady was very nice ##### Lisa Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ian Dec 30, 2023 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities the staff not only gave us the keys, but also walked us to the unit to show us exactly where it was.
