Unbeatable value for money. The crossing lodge operate remote check in and the instructions were useful and check in worked seamlessly. There is very poor signal in the area, but the WiFi was excellent (some apple devices do struggle to connect but Android are all okay). The toilets are clean and the rooms spacious. It has the most amazing Narnia movie room and lounge and the kitchen is great with lots of fridge space. I will be booking here again.

A great stay for friends and family to stay over. The house was lovely and clean and had all the thing we needed. Location is great too, there is a bar just a few minutes walk; around 25 minutes drive to Whakapapa ski field. I forget my phone that leave it under the pillow when check out. Luckily the host contact me immediately to collect the phone. Highly recommended! We will most definitely stay again if we are in need(。・ω・。)ノ♡

Mary was super responsive and lovely to talk to and get advice about our hike over Mt Tongariro. We were a bit apprehensive about the weather as it was looking quite windy but she provided alternative options if our original plan were to fall through, much appreciated! We were also in a newly renovated upstairs room with a gorgeous mountain view. Earplugs were provided but we didn't need them. Everything was nice and clean too.

The empty Chateau is a shame but we hope that will be sorted soon. The neglected buildings in the village on both sides of Bruce Road is not a good look. Hopefully they will be restored and have tenants soon. We understand Covid and the uncertainly around the sale of the ski field had a big influence but we hope that it would be fixed soon

The management is chaotic. I lost my ski poles.

The management is chaotic. I lost my ski poles. It took me an hour to find them among three girls. I found that all their equipment was someone else's. I was shocked. There were too many novices. My friend's child was hit three times in one day. It was really dangerous.

We loved our visit. Fantastic views and quality time.

We loved our visit. Fantastic views and quality time. Easy to get around in a standard car. Weather conditions were clear and bright, mild cold temperatures so a very minimal amount of ice on the road. We recommend the sky waka gondola. The skotel alpine resort is a good place to stay.

The isite leaves a lot to be desired.

The isite leaves a lot to be desired. It could easily go from barely adequate to basic competence by putting boards outside stating the office is closed. As walkers are supposed to register their walks on the mountain you wonder how accurate their information is when the office is closed and there isn’t even a notice board outside for walkers to use to show they’ve left or returned. The village in summer, now the Chateau is closed, has very little available accommodation. There is a shop for basics and Skotel runs a great restaurant and bar.

Absolutely recommend the 2 hour walk to Taranaki Falls.

Absolutely recommend the 2 hour walk to Taranaki Falls. You can do it in sneakers, some parts are lovely bush right alongside the river. The landscape keeps changing. Its beautiful and the air is so fresh. There's a table at the falls so take your picnic and stop for a while. Get your caffeine fix from TNT Pataka Food Truck at Whakapapa Holiday Park, they make a decent coffee and the food looked good too. Unfortunately some places in the area closed due to staff shortages, so it might pay to check for what is open when you visit.

Hi, It is better to plan your trip for at least two days.

Hi, It is better to plan your trip for at least two days. You can enrol your kids to ski school at the nearby school for a longer duration trip so that they learn the art of skiing. Bringing chains with the car will help you to revisit the Whakapapa skiing location often and reduce the commute cost. All in all, it was good to see snow all around especially if you are coming from the northern part of NZ.

We were very lucky to be among the very last guests at this iconic hotel, which is closing on February 5th, apparently forever. The staff were struggling to keep the place going and in the main did their very best despite the small number of guests and staff. We wished we had seen it operating in its former grandeur, but were very glad we had done a booking before they stopped taking them, and that it was before the axe finally fell.

Good access up to the Sky Waka. National Park nearby offered some good meal choices. Walk to Taranaki Falls nearby was worthwhile even though we took the long way. Very scenic.
