Overall Ratings & Reviews Tongariro Suites at The Rocks

We absolutely loved our stay and look forward to returning. I really appreciate the extra effort they put in - from the complimentary food and wine to the home made bath salts. Thank you :)

An absolutely stunning location with great facilities, very quiet nature, great hosts. Nothing more to say. Highly recommend

The whole place was very nice. Loved the bath tub. Would definitely come back

Really nice rooms, quiet and tranquil, lovely spa. Loved all the eco touches and locally sourced stuff. Would definitely recommend.

Awsome place to stay.

Beautiful spot. Definitely recommend for a relaxing break.

Amazing views. Super friendly & helpful host

This was one of the best experiences we had in NZ, thus far! We wish we could stay there for more than 1 night. It's more like being in a very modern and very new and upscale B&B, where every detail counts. It is owned by a couple who love the area and the location. The home is located in a beautiful and large "dessert garden" with its own pond and based only on native NZ plants and trees. The rooms are spacious and fully equipped, with a very healthy breakfast, stored to be eaten in the room. The host (proud honor) explained all our needs in and out of the place and gave us excellent information about the area, restaurants, other tourist facilities, etc. If you plan to stay there, consider at least 2 nights.

Perfect wild place for travelers with 5star service!!!

Room was Awesome!! Fortunately we had good weather and the Mountain View out our back sliding glass door was fantastic!! Room was clean, quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was in the room so you had the convenience of serving yourself when you wanted. It was simple fare, but it was satisfactory for us. Host was very gracious and had some tips for the area. Would definitely stay there again!

Unfortunately the weather was against us otherwise the surroundings would have been great, so much mist we couldn’t see Mount Ruapehu! Property is clean and comfortable and hosts were really helpful. Breakfast slightly disappointing. Would recommend.

Beautiful setting and wonderful hosts. We really enjoyed our stay here, and will be back!

The room was clean, spacious and beautifully decorated. Very comfortable indeed. The owner is friendly and helpful. However, there is no shop or restaurant nearby. Not a convenient location.

My husband and I LOVEDDD this place. Elspeth (the host that greeted us) was so welcoming and helpful in explaining about the space and what’s around. It feels like she was welcoming us to her home to stay! We had one of the best stays here while road tripping around the North Island. The best sleep everrr and the best view of Mt Ruapehu the moment we woke up; the snow-capped mountains against the blue sky, it was totally idyllic. A tray of breakfast, microwave, toaster, hot water shower, clean toilet, clean beds, fast internet and Netflix; what more can you ask for a somewhat mountainous winter getaway? The only concerns we had was the slightly dirty hot water kettle (probably overused), slightly leaky toilet bowl, and the location of this place. But no biggie! They aren’t deal killers. Arrive at this place before dark k! And it’s about 20-40mins to the next towns (Ohakune and Whakapapa). But still quite convenient, we did 1 day at the slopes on the Ohakune side of Mt Ruapehu, and the next day, on the Whakapapa side.

The space, the view, breakfast and the staff were awesome. Will be staying here on our next trip to the ski fields.

Incredible place . Warm welcome by the owner. Everything was clean and convenient. I did love the fact that it is fully eco friendly. It was quiet and super well equipped. The breakfast provided was amazing. One of the best place Istayed in New Zealand

Super friendly and helpful host/owner who had thought of everything to make our stay the best it could be. From the homemade bath salts, candles and gorgeous bathroom to the delicious in-room breakfast consisting of a fabulous homemade muesli, cereal, fruit, yoghurt, fresh bread and fresh coffee. The bed was extremely comfortable and the suite had a nice deck looking out to a beautifully landscaped wetlands. Would not hesitate to recommend these suites to anyone visiting the area.

Great room with mountain views, big armchairs, a very comfortable bed, a hot tub, and a fabulous breakfast.

Lovely room and views, great hosts. We stayed in the Executive (Tongariro) Suite which was very comfortable and included a gas fire with great views to Mt Ruapehu. The large patio with table and chairs by the pond for breakfast was great and there were a couple of lounge chairs for relaxing in the afternoon. The shard deck was a great sun trap and included sunlounges, a hot tub and a BBQ. I would recommend staying here, we loved it

Lovely room, well appointed inside and out, spectacular views and close enough to village for restaurants.
