Two months later and I still remember this retreat as my favorite place I stayed in NZ. The owner, Ian, is exceptionally kind and friendly. He really tries to facilitate friendships between the guests, and gives great advice for the Tongariro crossing as well as other activities in the area. Overall the place has a genuine, easygoing, and social atmosphere that (imo) is not commonly found. I extended my stay here and could have stayed longer!

The whole place was clean and homely. The breakfast was more than enough, the hot tub was an added bonus . We watched the stars even on a cloudy night. There was nothing to dislike.👍

We had a great stay, very private and quiet. The continental breakfast was an added bonus.
Very friendly hosts and we would definitely stay again.
We highly recommend Tongariro Lodge for dinner. Great food and it's only a few hundred metres away
We walked round the mountain track anti-clockwise.
We walked round the mountain track anti-clockwise. Overall walk was a little harder than I had expected, though got progressively easier each day. Distances can be misleading as track harder and slower day one vs day four or five. Times on DOC maps reasonable guide to relative effort for each section. I loved the back section between Mangaehuehu, Rangipo and Waihohonu huts.

I did the Tongariro Northern Circuit.
I did the Tongariro Northern Circuit. I got the northern explorer from Auckland and then walked from Whakapapa to Mangatepopo hut on that first day. The whole experience was A=mazing. Met some Wonderful people. So four days on the trail and then two nights at Skotel which was great. The food at Skotel was excellent as was the staff.
Another highlight was the gondalier up to the restaurant on Mt Ruapehu. Have to ruin it by saying the service at Tongariro chateau"s cafe was dismal, not at all what you would expect.
Got the bus back to Auckland, next time I would get the train back again.

Tongariro area is magnificent.
Tongariro area is magnificent. Whakapapa still OK, but Top O Bruce has gone from a wonderland to plain bl...... awful. Loud Muzak blaring from PA outside and inside the (total ripoff cafe - small flat white nearing twice that in Taupo, and as for food.... ). Heavy machinery everywhere, heavy helicopter etc etc. Pay heaps for the nice antiseptic gondola if you wish.

We went there on the shoulder season - between hiking and snow sports. I went for the Northern Circuit walk but got weathered off, however there were excellent day walks from Whakapapa to to enjoy and the scenery was brilliant, so we had a great time anyway. The DoC facility is excellent and the staff are very helpful and even gave us a refund for the lost hut bookings.
We chose to stay in Whakapapa as we had arrived by train (excellent journey) and we shuttled to our stay. During the day there are limited options for eating and coffee - they could do with more choices there, perhaps a Coffee Club! {:-D

Nice clean tidy rooms with lovely views. Loved the bar and its views. Food was lovely. Smelt a little stale in the restaurant bar area would be only feedback really. Really nice stay would definitely stay again.
