Walls were thin, if you’re a light sleeper that might be a problem with the noise from the road. Otherwise was clean and we enjoyed our stay.

The young lady at the front desk was so cordial and most helpful. The rooms are cleaned very well, and as much as I travel I know what cleaned well is. Highly recommend this location if you’re traveling through beautiful New Zealand.

Rob

A nice little spot just out of town. Theres a park over the road where you can walk up the overlooking hill for great views all around, a nice cafe too. Trucks make a lot of noise and shake the property as the go past very very regularly day and night and theres the occasional train ttoo. If you can live with that, its a nice spot. Stayed there twice now. Will stay again.

Clean and comfortable stay
We only stayed for one night at Waitomo Lodge but quite enjoyed it. The room was clean and bed very comfortable. Check in and out was straightforward. After reading previous reviews we put our headphones on before going to sleep and didn't hear any trains, had a very good night sleep.
