"Very nice hotel with a good view of Tongariro National park. There’s no AC in the rooms so it can get pretty stuffy unless you open the windows. But it gets chilly in the night so kinda evens out. And if you step outside in the night you get a very good view of the stars."

Being really close to townshio we found dinner easily elsewhere. We didn't stay long and would be happy to stay again when in the area."

"Amazing location and an amazing experience. Only criticism was WiFi was limited and although there was a TV, there was no TV aerial (you can borrow DVDs for free from reception). Note the dome gets hot during the day and cool during the night and there is the odd bug. HOWEVER it is a tent so expected and not a criticism. Overall I highly recommend it and I would stay there again! "
