Vind je ideale hotel in Desert Road

'Clean and cosy rooms. Central to the mountain and town. Very nice room layout! Washer/ dryer available in the villa. Check in process could be improved. We arrived earlier in the day and no one around to help us check in. We left and returned hours later and still no one to check us in. Another person staying in the resort contacted the person that was supposed to be there for check in and that person sent the cleaner to check us in! It was annoying and bizarre! '

'Het is een prima plek om te verblijven. Alles was perfect tot onze buren om elf uur s avonds terwijl wij sliepen, hun tanden gingen poetsen. Toen zaten wij rechtop in bed. Een kabaal van ratelende leidingen dat aan en afnam bij het gebruik was ons deel. Datzelfde gebeurde s morgens, gelukkig pas om half negen maar toch behoorlijk luid. Verder was het een prima verblijf. Alles wat men onderweg nodig heeft is er en het was schoon. '

'Nice place to stay. '

'Friendly staff, clean fresh rooms, clean comfy beds. On site cafe had a great breakfast menu'

'Scott the host was extremely welcoming and showed us around the property. He made great suggestions for places to visit in the area and to dine out and left us with a detailed map. The room was very cosy and we enjoyed the hot tub. Everything was very clean and comfortable and we loved the sounds of the river next to the room. Would highly recommend. '

'Despite an unprepossessing exterior, the unit was wood panelled inside, and was cosy. The living area was large and it was quiet, being located away from the main road. The stairs to the bedrooms were a bit narrow and creaky, but we had a comfortable sleep. Enjoyed our stay.'

'Close to the supermarket, restaurants ,clean room.'

'Great value for money. Love staying here'

'Nice staff, good location, breakfast Ok, nice short walk close to motel'

'zeer verouderde accomodatie,ontbijt is erg basic,blijkbaar is dit dorpje erg in trek in de winter om te skieen,nu was het een doods stadje'

'Very good , tidy , quiet and very comfy bed , will be back again'

'Volledig van hout gebouwd hotel, binnen en buiten. Echt wintersport-hotel. Uitstekend maar ook gezellig restaurant erbij. Beste hotel van het dorp, direct bij weg naar skigebied en wandeltracks. Kamer goed maar wat donker.'

'Beautiful place. With a fantastic view on the ruepahu. Great room, comfortable bed. Breakfast disappointing.'

'We stayed 2 nights in the ‘deluxe’ double room No 4 directly behind reception. The self check-in process was very easy to use. I suspect like everyone else we were there to do the Alpine Crossing. So in that context it suited us fine, only a few minutes drive to the pickup point. The room was en-suite, the shower was okay once it warmed up and it had a decent TV with a range of channels. The kitchen was well equipped. Overall very good value.'

'Lodge was located at a very convenient place. The owners has kept clean. It has few rooms attached to the property and few outside. We stayed the ones in the main lodge and felt like being at home. Definitely recommend to stay if you are going to tongariro national park'

'Een betere plek voor een hotel vind je haast niet. Direct aan de mooiste trails. Het is een soort ski chalet-achtig motel. '

'Zeer gedateerde en kleine appartementen. Doet me denken aan een jeugdherberg in de jaren 70. Het gebouw is in zeer slechte staat van onderhoud. Wat dat betreft stevige prijs die kennelijk alleen gebaseerd is op de ligging ten opzichte Tongariro National Park. Het skigebied bij Whakapa is echter nog steeds een half uur rijden, dus niet heel dichtbij. Wat mij betreft geen aanrader.'
