We had a rental car so this property made a good lodging option for the Waitomo Caves area, which is about a 15-minute drive. The "river" deck (I think we rented a "premium king") is a deck with not much river. The room was clean and had housekeeping. It was equipped with dishes and utensils. There is a coffee cafe right across the street. 4 minutes to the main drag with a number of food options. Driving tip: Take the time to get off the highway and experience the countryside roads.

A nice little spot just out of town. Theres a park over the road where you can walk up the overlooking hill for great views all around, a nice cafe too. Trucks make a lot of noise and shake the property as the go past very very regularly day and night and theres the occasional train ttoo. If you can live with that, its a nice spot. Stayed there twice now. Will stay again.

The young lady at the front desk was so cordial and most helpful. The rooms are cleaned very well, and as much as I travel I know what cleaned well is. Highly recommend this location if you’re traveling through beautiful New Zealand.

Exceeded Expectations.

Was greeted on arrival with bottles of water and chocolates - very nice. Our room was large, comfortable and with floor to ceiling windows at the rear where we could view the countryside from some very comfortable arm chairs. Bedding was spotless. Free netflix provided.
