Search Cottages in Waitomo Caves

"Louvre window in bathroom rattled all night in the breeze and the concrete floor provided no sound barrier from the loud footsteps upstairs, which I believe was the staffs quarters."

"Amazing property "

"Our family of four had a great one night stay in a chalet. While the living area was cosy, it had everything we needed. It's located in a great spot not far from the caves and close to an excellent restaurant. "

"Quaint cottage style rooms that looks like it’s from the 60s or 70s. Rooms come with a kitchenette, cutlery, plates, and fridge. Bathroom shower is literally just a walled off portion of the room without a door or even shower curtains. No towel rack next to the shower so I draped my towel over the back of chair I dragged into the bathroom. No power outlets next to the bed, one of the bedside night light quartz bulbs was burnt out. Large Samsung SMART TV was a saving grace. Wi-Fi was adequate but bogged down at times."

"Lovely clean room"

"Room was spacious with super comfortable beds. Small kitchenette available with microwave and kettle. We loved the old school 90s feel which still looks in its prime. The room had everything you could need for a few days stay. Didn’t get to use the courtyard but it was tidy. Parking easy and Jeff was very helpful with local activity recommendations. A little bit of road noise but nothing significant. We were given the accessible room and it was very well set up for that purpose. Thanks Jeff and Jenny "

"Cabin has a bad smell (note on wall stated it was recently varnished but did not have this smell). Shower went hot then cold on and off which made for a very unpleasant experience. Overall i would recommend to get an ensuite and skip the cabin to stay. Friendly staff but overall not a pleasant stay for the price."

"It was definitely a unique stay. Just keep in mind that the deeper in the ship you go, the colder it gets. However, the duvet and blankets they provide are plenty warm, and there are extra heaters provided, plus some electric blankets I think. People complained about the diesel smell, while present, it faded away for me after a while, it wasn't overpowering or anything. "

"Conveniently located to restaurants and the museum. Very clean. The woman who works the inn is very kind and makes a lovely breakfast. Highly recommend!"
