1-night trip

10/10

We had a very comfortable 2 night stay in the Jerusalem Suite with easy access to the kitchen shared with one other suite. We used the kitchen to self cater (as National Park has limited dining options and my partner is vegetarian) and made use of the oven and gas hob. We had the use of a fridge and the kitchen had all the pots, pans, utensils, etc needed for producing meals. Our room had a good sized bed, plus a sofa and table and a couple of dining chairs. A small wardrobe, but only three hangers. The en suite bathroom was also spacious with a large shower cubicle. Easy parking on site. We used the complementary laundry facilities to catch up on some washing. Very nice hosts, who offer to assist with arrangements for the Tongariro Crossing if you need this. Breakfast is available at an additional charge - but we had planned to self cater.

Cosy, comfortable and thoughtful host. We came here to enjoy some peace and quiet without the hassle of meal preparation. This place was perfect for us and it’s within walking distance of a few dining places. It’s self-contained though, so the option of preparing our own meals was available.

The lodge was amazing - very comfortable room with access to laundry. Marina was also very helpful with suggestions for activities and hikes when our Tongariro Crossing was cancelled due to weather. We had a great time there and wish we could have stayed longer.
