This was an ideal base for making the Tongariro crossing and I'd advise you to snap it up if available.
Eileen and Stu gave me the number for a shuttle bus to collect from the front door to go to the trailhead. Easy.
The apartment is spacious, clean, well equipped, nicely designed and very comfortable. Breakfast items including eggs, coffee, cereal were all kindly left for us on arrival. A pleasure to stay in.
Stu gave good advice on food and drink options within walking distance.
View of Mt Ruapehu from the property just adds to the magic of being in such a wonderful part of the country.
