Hotels near The Dinosaur House

"A little gem of a property. Built around a courtyard, the motel was very quiet. It is off the main road, but easily within walking distance and a 2 minute drive into town. There is a small playground nearby as well as a fantastic Carrotland Adventure Playground (with flying fox and confidence court!) in town. The motel was extremely clean, and the staff were friendly and generous with towels etc. There is a private hot tub/spa pool available which we really enjoyed. Beds were SUPER comfortable and curtains were great at blocking out all light. Kitchen comes with all you would expect - small/bar fridge, small oven and stovetop, dishes, pots, microwave, etc - so it is easy to self-cater and save some money that way. (There is a New World supermarket in town as well as dairies, cafes, etc) There are several shelves of DVD's and books that you can borrow, and our 2 night stay was very pleasant. We would happily return. "

"Very good for families"

"We were upgraded from a 2 bedroom to a 5 bedroom (we still only used 2 bedrooms) but had a nice large house with a fireplace. Loved coming in from the snow to a cosy house. "

"A fantastic place to stay. Very welcoming and comfortable. "

"Beautiful location "

"The River Lodge is a beautiful property set in lovely grounds. We had a large beautiful room, very comfortable bed, lovely bathroom and a balcony with a wonderful view of the mountain. We had fabulous breakfasts and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The only downside is that it is quite remote - about a 10 minute drive into Ohakune."
