Waitomo Lodge

Love the accommodation. It was really clean and spacious. We had a really nice view of the river and railway. It is a quiet place most times, although there will be trains passing by (even at night). My husband and I didn't mind the noise, so no complaints from us. There is also parking assigned for each room. Might be easy to miss their signboard at night. It's not well lit. But it is just along the main road so it's easy to find

Gorgeous place to stay. Room was large with huge bed and living area. Big well equipped bathroom. Short drive to town for some dinner. We had delicious food from Miss India. Staff were extremely friendly and a pleasure to deal with. Great spot to stay when heading out to see the glow worm caves. Cute shops situated a short walk away. We had a room at the back and Eve railway didn’t bother us at all. Peaceful outlook was perfect for us!

This motel doesn't look like much on the outside but the room is spacious with a balcony . There was a sofa, large bed , kitchenette, tv with access to Netflix and basic but clean bathroom . The light shade could do with a clean but overall the room was clean . Parking outside the room. Was value for money and I would recommend for a short stop.

Nice room, comfy bed, good bathroom with nice body products supplied. We were able to prepare a basic meal for 4of us with the kitchenette.Our room was beautifully serviced while we were out, we stayed two nights. Noise and vibration from the road was a big problem and we were situated right next to the rubbish bin which wafted a bit. Being a state highway, the noise and vibration went all night. It might be nicer if you had a room in the middle of the complex.

I enjoyed my stay here. My room was spotless. The bathroom was well stocked and spacious. The shampoo and bodywash supplied had a lovely scent. The kitchenette was well stocked as well. I was able to have a very nice bold coffee that was supplied. My bed was very comfortable. There was also bottled water plus snack size chocolates available. I appreciate the effort and service provided by the staff. I will stay here again when I visit Te Kuiti in the future.. Also across the road is a cafe that offers some very good food as well as the petrol bowser is afew metres away. There is also a craft store right next door. This is a very nice place with very friendly staff.

The perfect spot to stay for glowworm caves! We loved this place. It was so cozy and perfect for what we needed. We will stay again should we ever be back in the area!

We booked in here as part of our visit to Waitomo Caves (15 minutes away). Had everything we needed. Good spacious room which appears to have had recent refurbishment. Couldn’t fault it. Great cafe directly across the road. Would recommend staying here if you plan on visiting Waitomo Caves.

Our room was dated but clean. Loved the bathroom has been updated obviously on a budget but water pressure in shower was great and bathroom was clean. Was good value for money. Location was good for us as straight out onto highway to where we needed to go.

The only reason we stayed here was to visit the Waitomo Glowworm Caves, otherwise there is nothing to do in this town. The room was large but the walls are a little thin. The room was chilly. We were given a room with wheelchair access so the bathroom shower wet the entire bathrrom, but on a bright side, it was a huge bathroom. You have to pay for internet, $5 for 50 mb. We opted not to get it. Instead we ate across the street (Bosco Cafe) which gave us 10mb for free with purchase. There is nothing good to eat nearby. We found a supermarket in town to buy some food. Otherwise, you are stuck eating Chinese fast food in the area. Free parkng.

Adorable and clean. We had a room with a first floor balcony and kitchenette. At $130 it was cheaper than what was offered closer to the Waitomo Caves. The train track behind had two trains go by but I thought it was cute and didn't really mind the noise. It's also close to town and within walking distance of a cafe and a grocery store. And wifi was free (I think it was 100mB.) I recommend the Indian food place in town (the menu was in the room and the call was free)...it was one of the better Indian places I've had in a while. Also they sell $5 made-in-NZ soap bars. I bought two soaps in the shape of sheep to give as souvenirs.
