If you need to stay in the upper hutt area then this place is a must, great value for money, extremely friendly staff and management, super secure parking, restaurant and a safe pub right next door and if you dont have a car the trentham train station is literally just across the road. I highly recommend the Totara Lodge and i look forward to staying again soon.

From the lady who checked us in to the room itself everythings was great. Comfortable bed, lots of space & super convenient for the events we had planned that weekend. Only heard a couple of trains but sound was minimal however there is a pub next door so could hear people talking on and off but nothing crazy.
