Odkryj pobyt w mieście Horopito

We decided to break our train journey from Wellington to Aukland and took a chance on this Chateau. We were so glad that we did. We stayed for two nights, in ”The House”, not a hotel room. This is a three-bedroom house with a good kitchen and bathroom, comfortable lounge room and nice outdoor terrace. It also has a wood fired heater, for which they provide plenty of wood. Then there's the dining room! We weren't disappointed there either. We ate there both nights and had delicious food. The staff were also very friendly and helpful, including taking us into town to the supermarket. Otherwise, it was a looong walk. A special shout out to Scarlett who was a great help following the unexpected cancellation of our next accommodation in Aukland.

A group of us stayed in the chalet. It was comfortable and great for a group. A short stroll to the powderhorn for dinner. Friendly hosts. There were a couple of minor issues that they fixed straight away. Happy to recommend as a great spot to base you and your friends for an Adventure weekend in Ohakune. Winter or summer. And check out the local takeout The Blind Finch - for the best burgers, pies and danishes!!

The location is excellent, you can see the Tongari Lilu Snow Mountain, the surrounding environment is good, there are trails at the entrance, not far from the town center supermarket, driving is very convenient. The room is clean and has a kitchen and a spa.

Handy to town restaurants and the mountain. An old style motel but it is Clean and tidy with what looked like recent paint and decorating within the unit. Good easy parking. Nice amount of tea and coffee. Shower had poor water pressure and should be better given the amount of money you pay to stay there. Would not recommend a mountain view room as the extra cost is not worth it . No fault of the motel but Mother Nature meant we did not see the mountain for the two days we were there. Ground floor units are the same as the second story but at a much cheaper price. No shower gel for the two days we were there. Desperately needs a heater and extraction fan in the bathroom. Staying in a ski town where temperatures can dip below zero made the bathroom freezing cold and unpleasant when getting changed. A heat pump would also be great instead of a stand alone heater in the main room. Only saw the staff on checking and it is encouraged to just leave the key in the Dropbox on departure. Third step from the bottom of the north end staircase is broken and the only thing stopping you from falling through is the rubber mat screwed to the step. We did not want to ring the bell to let them know as the young mum has at young child which meant having to come down stairs holding the toddler and we just felt bad about that. Please also check the step closer to the top. Sorry but won’t stay again and will look for something that has extras like heat pump, decent shower and a bit more modern. Lady on check in is pleasant and friendly and change our room without fuss when our shower was found to be broken and did not work.

My husband and I stayed on a two night package which included a private room with ensuite, cooked breakfasts, Old Coach Road Trail transfers to Horopito and use of the spa pools. Due to urgent surgery and an eight week recovery recovery, we had to postpone our break away for two months and Steve was understanding and helpful when I contacted him and was happy to extend the deal until my husband had recovered. Our room was cosy, clean and comfortable and there was a clear view of Mount Ruapehu from the deck - we sat and watched the sunset and the colours reflected on the snowy mountain - it was magic. The breakfasts were made while we waited and delivered to our table hot and fresh. The staff were helpful and happy to go the extra mile. The lock up storage facility for our bikes was an added bonus and everything was in walking or biking distance so we didn't need to use the car. All in all this is a great place to stay with friendly and helpful staff.
