Clean and comfy
We loved our stay here! The location was perfect for visiting the caves and eating a great meal after! The kitchen was perfect for us to make a quick breakfast before leaving for our next adventure! The only issue was the heater made banging noises all night.

Wonderful stay in Waitomo!
Such a great place to stay when checking out Waitomo. Highly recommend staying in a private room as a couple. But when we passed by the hostel type rooms, they were quite charming too. We’d love to visit again with friends and family. Great cooking facilities and even a washer/dryer.

Picturesque property in a peaceful village. Staff were great, warm and welcoming. The room was large and well equipped. Simple but very clean. Very convenient location to a pub and general store both steps away. Would definitely recommend!
