A wonderful stay at Mountain Heights Lodge, highly recommended. The hosts, Karl and Maria, are very friendly and helpful, gave us useful information on food opitons & trails when checking in Room (motel unit) was clean with full equipped kitchenette.

Clean and comfortable

Fabulous stay. We had deluxe room in the lodge with balcony. Room was spacious and clean. Bed comfortable. Breakfast provisions provided were very generous. Definitely recommend. A great base to explore national park.
Graham, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed our stay, appreciating the quiet location and pretty view. The self serve breakfast in the breakfast nook hit the spot. Our second floor room was airy and well appointed. Regretfully we only spent a single night. The lodge is conveniently located for visiting the national park.
Daniel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is an excellent location for staying around the National Park. We stayed here so we could hike the Tongariro Alpine Crossing, it is one of the shuttle stops and picked us up right at the hotel, and after our hike brought us back to the hotel. The hotel manager emailed us the shuttle reservation link, so it made it super easy to plan our adventure!

10/10 Exceptional

We had a beautiful sunny room in the lodge that was clean and very comfortable. The wood stove on the first floor was delightful on a chilly evening. The breakfast room had a very nice self-serve continental breakfast. The hot tub was the best we experienced in New Zealand! National Parks Village two restaurants were close by and all the Tongariro Park activities were close by. Loved it.
