Mountain Heights Lodge

All facilities including the host was perfect including clean tidy and comfy bed .My only complaint would be the low pressure shower , apart from that it was 10 out of 10

The staff was very rude, we arrived and they kept saying 'no children, no children' even though it says child friendly on their website. I don't recommend it, the stuff has no idea how to treat customers. Don’t waste your time, there are other better places around the area.

What a great find, close to amenities and the Tongariro Crossing hike. Lovely and clean and warm. Full kitchen, large bathroom and very comfortable beds. Wifi was included and plenty of tv channels to watch. Parking right outside our unit with a little patio with table and chairs. Even though it was right on the main road our unit was set back and very quiet. Would definitely stay again. Hosts were lovely and helpful with suggestions.

A delightful charming rustic lodge with an intriguing history. Our standard Queen bed room was comfortable and cosy, spotlessly clean bathroom, good tea and coffee facilities, and a generous continental breakfast included. Beautiful views day and night. Close to Ohakune, Tongariro National Park and G.A.S. station/shop. We were invited to walk around the sprawling estate and feed the alpacas. Hope to do the quad bike trail next time! Maria and Karl thanks for your warm hospitality.

after being informed our other accomdation was closing down, we were lucky to discover here & book a one night stay. the room was fabulous, at the front of building, with a balcoy looking out to the mountains. everything was clean, comfortable & cozy. A good nights sleep, we were not bothered by road noise. A basic breakfast was left for us in the upstairs kitchen, that was enough to start our day, plenty of tea/coffee available. There are 2 eating places a short drive away, but only one was open on our stay, which was understandably, crazy busy. Thank you.

This was a great place to spend a night on our way back to Wellington. We had a unit well away from the main road. Maria was very friendly and took us to our unit and explained everything in the room. Unfortunately there is no evening meal offered. Can thoroughly recommend this accommodation.

We stayed here 3 nights. Let’s get the one real negative out of the way: lots of road noise! Our room #1 is right on the end of the property, but only 30 meters from the highway. There was a lot of road noise all night with lots of large trucks zooming by. We understand that Motorway #1 had a washout recently, and consequently many trucks are taking this highway until the washout is fixed. Hopefully this will be fixed soon, as we did not get a full night’s sleep. On the positive side, everything else was really good. Hosts Karl and Maria are delightful and very helpful. Our room was clean and cozy. We had 1 queen and 2 single beds, which was nice since we laid out our clothes on the single beds. The room was average size and could have used more seating (a small sofa) and more tables or counter space. The bathroom was nice size with a separate room for the toilet. The shower was OK; the pressure was low and it was hard to keep the water from flowing into the bathroom. The kitchen was well supplied, but the stove/oven should be replaced with something that heats up faster (it’s underpowered). The bathroom sink could use an update, as the hot and cold faucets are separate and difficult to control the temperature (hot water was too hot). Otherwise, the room had been painted recently and the flooring is relatively new. The sauna is quite nice and relaxing. We recommend this accommodation with the caveat that the road noise will decline significantly when Highway #1 is fully reopened.
