It was more spacious and nice than the photos could portray. We really enjoyed the friendly staff and roomy cozy space. Great heating too, even in the summer when the temperature dropped a lot at night.

Great Value for money
We have now stayed at the Hobbit several times and each time has been great. It's not 5-star but it doesn't pretend to be - it's just a good solid Kiwi motel! It's got a nice quiet location, is always very clean and tidy, and is great value for money.
The Hobbit will always be our first choice whenever we're in the area.

10 mins walk to the supermarket and food caravans , coffee . Because the town is very small once you’re at the shops it’s easy to find your way round .

This motel was nice and quiet. I was there in the ‘off’ season for skiing but it was great for getting some spring time hikes in. Great location for hiking to Waitonga Falls and also being able to walk to the town of Ohakune. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Very nice little motor lodge. Very welcoming staff and very clean. Linen and furniture is a little tired, but aside from that it's a very good spot to spend the night between Wellington and Auckland

This was an average 3 star motel in a good location. The price was right! The bed was one of the worst I've slept on but the room was clean. You can hear your next door neighbours.

The bunk beds were so creaky I thought I was going to squash my friend sleeping on the bottom and the room smelt a bit weird, but other than that the bathrooms were all very clean and the reception lady was very nice
