Alpine Motel

We had a window to get away from Auckland, so we decided to ditch the car and book the train Thursday to Sunday, so we'd get one midweek ski day and one weekend day at Turoa. We found Alpine Motel through reviews. It was well priced for a room including a kitchenette and a perfect location right in the centre of town. The room was clean and cozy with central heating, electric blankets and a great shower. We had a lot of snow gear, but we fit nicely (one big suitcase, 3 carry on suitcases and two back packs full). The room included discount cards to TCB to rent ski gear a 2 minute walk away (stored it in the kitchen area), then headed to New World one minute beyond that. The shuttle pick up is even closer. The restaurants and cafes were all around us. The hot tub is clean and hot. The personal service was exceptional. You don't need someone present 24/7. You just need to communicate if needed. We felt like we moved right into town for our 3 night adventure. We'll be back, thank you.

The sliding entry door had a serious manfunction. Needed to be slammed to shut it. Also the lock did not work.

Stayed here on a Friday night after work function. Great location and the rooms are perfectly fine for a few nights. Easy check in and out. Has sky movies and sports. Plenty of bars and restaurants within five minutes walk. Would definitely stay here again.

The internet was quite slow. We couldn't stream and had to use 4G

Contact free reception seems to be a good idea. Phone call, key in coded locked compartment, no surprises.

Stayed 2x Nights, unit 5. Price mid-range. Contactless check in and out made everything ALOT more streamlined, all I wanted to do after a long drive was get in and wash up. Room was open plan, no drawers. Bed was comfortable and there was an electric blanket ＜3 which I really appreciated as Ohakune is cold. Small kitchenette with all you need to cook and coffee milk etc. Bathroom is bright and warm under the heat lamps impeccably clean and fresh. Shower has incredible pressure throughly impressed. Ambience was to be expected for business trip. Bright lights relaxed clean tidy space, lots of Power points to plug in laptops and cellphones, tv to provide background noise and free strong wifi. 2 doors down from the main street with 2 restaurants at the top of the road, New World just around the block and Hot latte 1 min stroll away. I am very happy with my stay and will return again. Thank you for hosting me.
