Rimu Park Lodge - Hostel
2.0 star property
8.6 out of 10, Excellent, (25)
"Parking is right out front. Some short hikes nearby but you probably need a car to get to longer hikes. Cute little bars/ dining areas one about a 25 min walk and the other right around the corner. Think this hostel is more popular in winter for skiing but room was great and kitchen and shared spaces were cute and homey."

The Park Hotel Ruapehu

The Park Hotel Ruapehu

5/5 Excellent
"We arrived to find out our hiking trip was cancelled but Megan at reception was an asset at helping us adjust our plans. We were still able to stay and have a fabulous hike. The hot tubs are super clean and great after a long walk. The restaurant and fireplace are so inviting. Kash is the best server and made us feel at home. The food was also delicious. We had everything we needed. "
