Top Tongariro Forest Park Hotel Reviews

Tongariro Lodge

Tongariro Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"This is a great place to stay and the setting I’d idyllic with the chalets among the trees. The restaurant meals we had were superb albeit a bit pricey. But it was worth it. Our hostess was charming and very friendly. We have stayed there now twice and next time we are passing thru Tūrangi we will certainly stay again."
