Review by hotel critic
Nestled against the beautiful backdrop of the famous Tongariro River, our recent stay at the Tongariro River Motel over Christmas proved to be an excellent base for exploring New Zealand’s stunning landscapes. The motel's retro charm is coupled with modern comforts; our spacious studio was equipped with a self-contained kitchen and a cozy seating area, providing the perfect retreat after a day filled with biking and fishing adventures—an activity immensely enjoyable for my three sons, who were eager to cast their lines. Every corner of the motel is immaculately maintained, reflecting the pride of its operators in providing a welcoming environment. We appreciated the thoughtful touches, like the laundry facilities, which made our stay incredibly convenient, especially after our outdoor excursions. The vibrant gardens added to the motel’s appeal, creating a calming space where we could unwind and soak in the scenery. Plus, being just a short walk from the humming town center and the renowned river allowed us to enjoy both tranquility and accessibility seamlessly. If you're seeking an engaging experience in a region that beautifully combines nature and comfort, the Tongariro River Motel should certainly be on your travel radar.
