Find Historic Hotels in National Park Village

"Skotel is a wonderful place for hikers, nature lovers and people who appreciate the peaceful wilderness. We splurged on a cabin, because we like privacy, and peace and quiet for sleeping. The cabin didn’t disappoint for quiet, solitude, peaceful sleeps, wonderful views, ample space, fully functioning kitchen, balcony, and parking outside your door. Yes, the facilities are a little old and tired, but the cabin was spotless with clean sheets, a comfy bed, fluffy white towels, dish towels, and everything you need to cook, including dishwashing liquid. There was a laundry rack and ironing board, as well as a heated towel rack. While we brought our own food for breakfast and lunch, we made use of the dining room for dinners. We also used the on-site laundry, which was very convenient ($4/load). On site staff were all lovely and helpful. All in all, we had a lovely time at Skotel, and had our best sleeps here! "

"Nice, welcoming facility. Room was a bit cramped for three adults. Common kitchen area was well appointed for cooking. Beds were comfortable. There is no cooling/air conditioning. We asked for and received an extension cord to allow us to place a room fan in the doorway to allow the cooler outside air into the room. Friendly staff visited us at length in the afternoon after their work was complete. "

"Great location to visit the park and do the Tongariro Alpine hike."
