Tongariro River Retreat, hotel in Turangi

Located in Turangi, 30 miles from Mount Ruapehu, Tongariro River Retreat provides accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace.

Two months later and I still remember this retreat as my favorite place I stayed in NZ. The owner, Ian, is exceptionally kind and friendly. He really tries to facilitate friendships between the guests, and gives great advice for the Tongariro crossing as well as other activities in the area. Overall the place has a genuine, easygoing, and social atmosphere that (imo) is not commonly found. I extended my stay here and could have stayed longer!

Creel Lodge, hotel in Turangi

Just 5 minutes’ walk from Turangi town center, Creel Lodge is a 4.5-star Qualmark rated motel offering self-contained suites with a private patio and BBQ facilities.

We really enjoyed our stay at Creel Lodge. The room was very nice and clean, we had separate bedrooms, living area and kitchen, and porch. If you walk to the back of the property there is a private gate that leads to a nice walk by the river. The lodge is also close enough to take a short walk into the main town area where there is a grocery store and restaurants. I would recommend staying here and would stay here again.

    Turangi has many interesting outdoor activities, and it is in the central North Island with mountains, rivers, Lake Taupo nearby, but we were just passing through and for us it was a place to break the long journey, rather than a destination in itself.

    It's a great stopover location say between Auckland and Wellington but it's hard to find good food and the prices e.g. food and petrol reflect a lack of true competition and a feeling "well, you've got little choice"

    A comfortable apartment with great views over Lake Taupo.

    A comfortable apartment with great views over Lake Taupo. We stayed two nights and used it as our base for doing the Tongariro Alpine Crossing, so it was perfect for that. Oreti Resort is about 14km from Turangi, so you definitely need a car for eating out etc.

    We found plenty to do in our 3 day stay.

    We found plenty to do in our 3 day stay. We popped up to Taupo and went to Orakei korako. Then to beautiful lake Rotopounamu and walked around that. And did the picturesque river walk. We hired a rental car so we could look around easily. We could have easily filled in a whole week.

    Central to some wonderful activities such as great rafting, the walk Tongariro crossing, Ruapehu. 'Up market' accommodation is very limited but if you can get into the Tongariro Lodge, it is excellent. Worth the extra cost. The locals are helpful and the town has a nice relaxed non-touristy feel; however avoid leaving your car parked overnight on a street. Shopping, apart from Groceries is limited.

    Turangi is a lovely little town.

    Turangi is a lovely little town. Not much going on in the actual town itself but has everything you need in terms of supermarkets etc. and easy access to the Tongariro Crossing and lots of other beautiful walks nearby. Recommend the Tongariro River Walk and Lake Rotopounamu walk too. Lovely swimming spots! I stayed for 4 nights in the end which was great. Recommend staying here! And also use Panda Shuttles to get to the Tongariro crossing or anywhere in the local area. Stay at Riverstone Lodge if you can!

    Restaurant was exceptional, the food was delicious, even though the servings were too big to be honest, but excellent service, not enough selection of wine though, and being able to produce good cocktails would have been even better, well done !! Right on the doorstep of the motels. The view is gorgeous and every room has one.

    You stay under shady trees with marvelous bird song. Pipiwhararoa (shining cuckoos) sang to me as I sat on my deck having a cup of tea. You can walk along the Tongariro River just through the back gate and watch the anglers casting for trout. This is my absolute favourite motel in New Zealand.

    The tranquility of Oreti is almost overwhelming. Our unit was perfectly suited for our needs, and we enjoyed every minute. The grounds look great, and the views of Lake Taupo are top-notch. The kitchen was well equipped to enable us to cook dinners in. Heartily recommend this property!

    Peaceful location close to the Tongariro River but off the main road, but also not far from Turangi township. A traditional motel at which the unit was very clean and well-equipped. Friendly owners who are busy refurbishing. Small deck area at the back of the unit is a nice addition.

    Great comfortable motel, amazing hot pools - overall a great stay. Very kind staff, they checked in on us and our one injured rider, let us use the carports for our motorcycles, and told us to dry our gear in a separate room. Will definitely stay here if we pass through again!

    The fact is felt like home away from home. You could close off the rooms. Having an ensuite and full kitchen. Plus a washing machine and dryer. We absolutely loved our holiday and soaking in the spa each day was a bonus.

    The location is superb. The hot pools came in handy after a cold day in the ice and more importantly the children playground and the animal zoo were really a plus for a family friendly hotel.

    There wasn’t a lot of choice of motels in Turangi so we were pleased to find this one. The facilities were fairly basic but adequate. The restaurant food was OK and the staff were willing.
