We really enjoyed the pub on site. Kid friendly, nice food, and all motel and pub staff were friendly and helpful. The drying room for wet clothes and wet ski gear was a bonus as well.

I love Kings. One of my favourite places in Ohakune. Good accomodation, the spa is awesome after a day on the Hill. Our ensuite shower was a bit cold however, that would be my only issue. Perfect, otherwise!

Everyone at the lodge was super friendly and helpful. Was nice to check in and the heater was already on and room was nice and warm. Did not like the noise of people talking late at night, walls are quite thin.

Staff were great, but don't believe that you will be able to get a proper night's sleep at this place. The walls are so extremely thin that you can hear the next door people chew. The family room is cramped and definitely not enough space for a 4 person family. There was dead cocroaches under the bed and heaps of spiderwebs. The restaurant was fine, except for the body hair in my daughter's food. We won't be going back to Kings Ohakune as it is really not family friendly.

Overall pleasant stay. Great shower pressure and the food in the pub was nice. The apartment we stayed in however could do with a make over- doesn't look like any work had been done on it since the 1980's. It was a nice surprise to find a drying room for all our snow gear which was great!

Booked accomodation with expedia and it included continental breakfast (four rooms 7 adults) when we got there into very noisy freezing or steaming rooms we were told that there is no breakfast and that it shouldnt be on the website. Was told would check with manager afer photographing my booking sheet. No feedback after that so on the second day went back again and was told you need to take this up with expedia as it is not our fault. No support no compensation no service at all.

Good location but pretty basic (small room). Our room smelt of the kitchen and was a bit noisy from kitchen staff walking behind the building talking. Random bag of linen sitting outside our door for 24hrs. Shower was cold on one of the nights. Staff at reception could have given us a bit more info at check in (eg about the breakfast option). Probably will try somewhere else next time

Lage mit Ausblick

Gute Lage zum Bahnhof, zum Zentrum ist es etwas weiter. Dafür hat man aber einen tollten Blick auf die schneebedeckten Gipfel im Norden.

This property is very very run down. The heater did'nt work in our room, the window and shower floor was rotten, the tap was loose on the sink and you could'nt avoid water all over the floor. The rest/ bar floor was sticky, the house which my friends rented was very very in need of major basic maintenance, toilet leaked, guttering had holes causing major noise at night when it rained, microwave did'nt work properly, oven needed cleaning, fridge froze everything and was tiny. All in all in major need of repairs everywhere.

Sweeeeet as. Great for the price of accomodation. Tho the bar and food prices are quite high and they had Drink specials for contiki tour guests and not normal guests which felt a bit unfair.
