Nice bed, clean
Kitchen lacks utensils and cutleries, no tissues
The beds were comfortable, especially the double bed. I also liked the location.
The shower could do with some shower lining repair work, water kept leaking out onto the bathroom floor and looked a bit grimy around the bottom corners of shower. This was in room 12.
Friendly staff, clean rooms and toilet.
Unfortunately, the pool was closed during our visit and the air hockey is broken.
Very good environment and it is easy to go to the two snow mountains
Bathroom cleaning need to make improvements
Love it everything
We had a wonderful experience. The staff were so friendly, welcoming, and helpful, especially the lady at the front of the bar and restaurant. She was absolutely lovely and made us feel very welcome. The pork meal was delicious and cooked perfectly. We really enjoyed our food and the overall experience. Highly recommended!
The comfort room and clean sheets
The bathroom window latch was not locking and had to be forced shut else there was cold air in the bathroom.
The staff and facilities were great, very happy with our brief stay
Nothing to complain about
Super comfortable beds good room layouts warm good shower good kitchenet in the studios great price
Would have given a 10 but unfortunately the restaurant had no staff and was not open and spa facility was under renovation at the time unknowingly
We were so very grateful we had somewhere to stay for the night. My sisters and our elderly Mum. The day was bitterly cold and we knew we would check in late - a quick call to reception to let them know and instructions were provided to where we could get our key. We absolutely appreciated staff had turned on the heatpump and left a light on for us. Very kind gesture. Nga mihi
Convienient location, easy to find, close to amenteties, cafes , so warm and cosy, comfortable and excellent for our one night stay. Lady at reception was lovely and found me my key from the outside box even though we were late to arrive. Nice hot shower.
Honestly, I found the double bed quite hard and it didn't have any give in it. I woke up having had not much sleep. But everything else was perfect.
I always enjoy my stay at this motel, staff are friendly, clean and beds are comfortable

Great communication throughout our stay. I really appreciated receiving a message from Chenara checking in, especially since we were arriving after hours. The room was warm, cozy, and perfect for my three girls. We had a lovely stay and felt very welcome.
Pleasantly suprised. Had everything we needed. Was clean and facilities were good. Even noticed a hair straightener and dryer in the woman's bathroom. With a late arrival, appreciated that the heat pump had been turned on so the room was warm for the kids.
Close to ruahaehu which is where we were heading
Didn’t realise I’d booked cabin without toillet
Easy access, spacious, good kitchen use
Nothing that I can think off
Very friendly very clean
Bed was uncomfortable
The sauna was neat.
Didnt look like the pictures (we got bunks). Had I have known, I wouldnt have booked this for my elderly kuia and kaumatua.
Got here and was told our accommodation was upgraded. Got to our room and staff had already turned on the heat pump. It will only make sense if you have experienced the cold afternoon's here. Will definitely be back.
The restaurant. Prices where standard. Staff excellent. Food was not the best.
Put in for a late arrival and when I arrived the room had the heater on which was super appreciated on a cold winter night, location super close to everything. Easy key pick up and drop off outside of office hours for going fishing
It was perfect for my needs, nothing I didn't like
Staff were awesome, I arrived late nice going in to a warmed up unit, thanks for that
The cold
Nice warm cozy rooms.
The resturant was not serving well made food. I would not dine there again.
No gym facility
This is our 4th time staying at this motel for over past 10 years. The location was great close to town centre and everything. Staff are always friendly and helpful. The new studio we stayed this time was even better.
Nothing at all.
Reception was very friendly. She gave us the spa key with no time limit attached because we were there on a quiet night. Great spa to wind down. Nice clean facilities.
Bon rapport qualité prix, excellente literie. Bonne connexion WIFI.
Rien que nous ne savions pas, comme les sanitaires dehors.
Staff was very kind and helpful, room was super comfy and nice.
I loved the location. The room had everything we needed.
It was just abit awkward having the bathroom in the bedroom but we managed.
The location was perfect
The bathroom in the bedroom was a little inconvenient but we managed
everything
shower pressure could be better
Nicely set up for families, staff very nice and friendly
Family friendly
Calm spacious grounds.Clean well kept premises.Room was spacious and had all the amenities.
Nothing
Fantastic value for money. The facilities including spa and sauna were perfect after the long walk. Great to have a full kitchen and bathroom in the hotel room.
The one single bed was a little uncomfortable for an adult (recognising the bed is probably meant for a child).
No remote for the ac unit which was running on cold when we arrived. No heating on a cold night was not acceptable.
Short walk to tavern for dinner. Kitchen and bathroom were very clean 👌
Warm
No toilet paper in ladies bathrooms
War gut gelegen. Hatte viel zu bieten. War sauber und zweckmässig.
Nichts
Quiet for a campground. We had rooms and they were sizeable, clean and very pleasant. Loved using the bbq for dinners as it gave us a break for eating in restaurants. Nice overall experience
Nothing really.
The staff were friendly and the property was nice and clean, close to town so easy access to everything
The photographer was great advertising the rooms we had a cabin and it was waaay smaller than expected it was like a shoe box, had to keep the aircon on 24/7 cause it was like a sauna, the wifi wasn’t good and finding something to watch on tv at night was a nightmare.
La chambre était conforme à nos attentes, le personnel attentionné lors du Check in. Idéalement situé à 30min du départ des navettes pour la traversée du tangariro.
Surpris d'avoir des tentes et campings car/ Van sur l'ensemble des espaces verts et notamment devant les chambres. Néanmoins à aucun moment nous n'avons été gênés par du bruit ou autre.
Good place to stay in Turangi, you're a short walk away from the main town where all the restaurants and supermarkets etc are. Room has most of what you would need, and the shared kitchen and bathroom are across the building. Facilities are kept very neat and tidy.
We couldn’t check in early but the desk gave us the key early so we could come back late to get in. So helpful. Accomodation was great, we stayed in a family unit. Was exactly all we needed. My wife left her wallet behind and we didn’t realise until a few days later, staff had found it and posted back to us in Australia without any hassle.
Good sized 1 brm unit with a double bed in the bedroom and 2 singles in the lounge area. Really nice food in the restaurant on site.
The shower wasnt clean, and the restaurant was really noisy - we ended up getting our meals in a doggy bag and going back to the unit to eat them.
Room was fine.
Poor having to go outside to communal, campsite toilet facilities. Poor value for money.
Il y avait deux chambres séparées et propres. Le Check out est très facile. Le logement etait situé en face de la cuisine et des toilettes.
Det mesta var bra och restaurangen var riktigt bra mat på.
Rummet. Det var inte ordentligt diskat porslin och heltäckningsmattan var sunkig
It was easy to find, central location The shower was ok and bed was comfortable
It was rather cramped. Could have made better use of the space. It also looks tired. Not much in the way of sound proofing. We could hear our neighbours and I’m sure they could hear us. It was over priced for what you get. Maybe because it was a long holiday weekend??
Zentral gelegen, gegenüber von Einkaufszentrum.
Staff was friendly Close to everything
Great
Washroom cleaning was not upto the mark other than all was excellent
Washrooms
The room was nice
I didn’t like the limited amount of channels on the tv
I like that it felt like I was in my own space, very good for families the kids loved the park and the room was perfect for us too
I don’t know if I didn’t read the information properly but I would have loved our room serviced but other than that it was great
Warm on arrival. Clean. Comfortable
