Love that each hub is named after the host cities of Olympics. This property served our requirements. We were training at Lake Karapiro and had our miniature schnauzer with us. We could stay here with her, we had access to great laundry to wash and dry our training gear. It does not have cooking facilities - only a microwave. But for a very short stay it suited our needs.

Great facility for our needs. We had a training camp based at Karapiro. We had to bring our dog and Podium presented as a clean modern accommodation to support our requirements to bring our wee dog. We are returning there in 2 weeks for our last training camp.
