Very quiet well appointed and very friendly operators. On highway 1 but noise was not an issue even with the trucks that used the premises. The restaurant provided a very enjoyable meal with a great selection and very reasonable prices. The wine list was adequate and again not overly expensive. Thoroughly recommend as a gateway to the mountains and Lake Taupo. Stayed September 2014, travelled as a couple

Stayed one night on our way to the ski slopes.Thank you Craig for finding a room for us. We left travel arrangement to last minute and Craig managed to give us a room for the 4 of us. Wonderful heated room on our arrival. Very central if you needing to pop over to New World across the road. Dinner was lovely - steaks done to perfection- as was the fish. Comfy beds - and a to die for breakfast - best we have had in NZ. Thanks filled us up too well for our day on the slopes. Highly recommended. I am sure we will all be back soon. Thanks again
