Amazing lady at reception when we first arrived, great family friendly room. Maybe having allocated parks would be great for rooms as when we got back to our room the car parks were all taken so had to park further away from our room. Upstairs tenants were noisy banging around a lot at midnight but that is no fault of the hotel. Our room had everything, was comfortable and warm with town in walking distance which was great to get a feel of Raglan (such a beautiful place). Would definitely recommend and book again without hesitation. Great price as well.

It is really close to everything, so you can have an extra wine with dinner and not be worried because you are walking home. No heat pump, it was so hot when we were there the room was like a furnace when we got home in the late afternoon. The fan provided and opening the front and sliding doors fixed the problem.

We enjoyed our stay. Clean modern ammenities, comfortable bed and large double size shower. Walking distance to town with supermarket next door. A little on the pricey side given it was mid week & off peak. We were given a 4 Bed unit for two people (couple) which seemed odd as they didn’t appear to be full & wasn’t what we booked online. We paid less for a suite at Chateau Tongariro the night before. TV was hopeless and located in an awkward position, which was disappointing as it the weather wasn’t really any good for going out. Overall we were satisfied and would stay again.
