Well equipped and compact

Good kitchen with stove and microwave but no microwaveable cooking dishes. Good internet and lighting. Hotel is on main road so some truck noise early in the evening. Close to the National park and shops. Compact room but adequate for a couple.

This was suitable place for a one night stay whilst travelling. Affordable. Little noisy if you were a light sleeper as it’s on the main highway. For us it was very convenient as easy to locate having arrived late at night. Easy access .Clean friendly staff in the morning on departure. Would stay again.

Ohakune is a great little town to spend a night in, plenty nearby Snowhaven. Room was small but sufficient, staff were low touch but efficient, the main issue I had (acknowledging a lot of this is outside of their control due to SH1 being closed at the time and bypassing through Ohakune) was noise related. Slept terribly due to heavy traffic passing by outside and more noticeably the guest in the adjacent room snoring, unfortunately both heard easily in our room.
