Waitomo Caves Guest Lodge

Duuude, the vibes were so chill! Our room was clean with, like, direct access to a balcony, how cool is that? Richy and Lyn were super friendly-gave us awesome tips for the glowworm walk! Breakfast was, like, totally delish too. Wish we could've stayed longer because it felt so cozy!

Neat rooms complete with hot water in the shower, the shower, private bathroom. The food is fabulous and fab. The setting is fantastic and stunning, right by back garden, and Ruakuri cave and Ruakuri natural tunnel.

Amazingly friendly people.

Lovely old accommodation with amazing setting next to tourist centre in Waitomo, and lovely gardens.

Extremely comfy room with very good facilities and a good breakfast that was a true highlight of our stay.

Lyn was very friendly, attentive and helpful.

We encountered several issues . First, the laundry facilities were not user-friendly. We faced a long line and missed the cutoff time. The room had a slight musty smell upon arrival, which could have been addressed with better airing. Most concerning was the presence of numerous spiders.

cozy, cozy, cozy

I had the pleasure of staying in a family room that was super clean and cozy, with a private bathroom that ensured our privacy. The continental breakfast each morning was a good spread, with a variety of cereals, fresh croissants, and delicious jams to fuel our day of exploring. The hosts provided excellent local insights and were really good too.

It is a charming lodge with friendly hosts who provided excellent local insights and accommodating early arrivals, and spare towels were generous for our adventures.

I had an really good stay with a warm, spacious room and enjoyed a delicious breakfast with fresh plunger coffee that was a highlight. the hotel could definitely use some updates around the interiors.

The hosts were accommodating and knowledgeable. The breakfast spread was a good surprise, with fresh options and great coffee.

This was a well-suited match for a short weekend trip in Waitomo Caves with great value for money. The dining experience was amazing, especially with the superb food we had at the restaurant. Make sure to arrive early for breakfast, as it ends quite early.

Our Family Room was clean and comfy, perfect for our group. The bed was cozy, and it had a private bathroom, a big plus. We appreciated the ample space to move around, though it was a bit small overall. Breakfast options were plenty, just right to kick off our day. The only downside was the steep pathway to reach our room. It made lugging bags a bit tricky.

The Guest Lodge is a charming place with cozy rooms and fine views of the surrounding countryside. Richy provided fantastic advice on local attractions and even lent us torches for a glowworm walk. The continental breakfast was a good spread, far exceeding expectations!

Steep driveway.

The lodging is conveniently located just a short walk from a bus stop, offering a generous breakfast with delicious croissants and a beautiful view, and the staff is exceptionally helpful.

Beautiful units set in a lovely garden 🌿. the accommodations are amazing and really stand out.

The perfect location made it easy to explore the surrounding attractions effortlessly.
