Tiny House In the Hills - 6 min from Town - Wi-Fi - Rural
Nice place to stay for the night, -- mind your head when you are upstairs. A shame that it's not facing west to take advantage of the evening sun. Even so, very warm -- the fan was definitely needed.

The Park Hotel Ruapehu
This is a gem of a hotel in the National Park Village. We loved the location, Spiral Restaurant and the communal gathering areas in the restaurant and bar. Everything was super clean, staff were capable and friendly. The views of the mountains at sunset in front of the hotel are special.

Nice and cheap stay. Noisy kids running up and down the hallway (but thats not the accommodations fault.) Easy drive to Whakapapa so good spot! Noisy heater fan in bedroom when it was closed.
