    This is a farming commercial area close to the Waitomo Caves...

    This is a farming commercial area close to the Waitomo Caves and cave worms tour. The town is basically two main roads with a few restaurants, stores, supermarket and other services. There is a train stop. We did not use the train for travel. It is only 15 minutes to Waitomo Caves and a good place to start exploring the cliffs along the Pacific Ocean further south.

    Cool little township with lots of yummy eateries, shopping & supermarkets. A few memorabilia statues to get pix with. The information centre is very helpful & informative with souvenir Nic Nacs to purchase as well.

    The Waitomo Caves is a must-see, and there are other attractions close by. We grabbed lunch at the Waitomo General Store which is more than just a store.The Cafe and menu selection is amazing and very reasonably priced. Cassandra and her team are a friendly bunch and super efficient.

    The garden at the cottage was amazing to explore.

    The garden at the cottage was amazing to explore. Te Kuiti has a fantastic Indian Takeaway with a wide range of menu options including a traditional Chicken Tikka Marsala and a toandoor oven to make Naan. Only problem was that we arrived on a weekend and a lot of restaurants nad safes were closed and no shops open (this is normal in New Zealand country areas but not where we come from in Australia). Ladies in the inforamtion centre were very helpful.

    We stayed overnight en route from Auckland to New Plymouth so saw little of Te Kuiti, but we saw beauty in the surrounds. We don't recommend taking the bypass route missing Hamilton on a rainy night!

    Motel Te Kuiti was a great stop over before reaching our next destination. My partner and I have been on a road trip for 5days and it was such a great choice to stop there. The friendly lady at the reception was helpful as we were able to do our washing and drying for free. She also took our breakfast order which was convenient for us as it came on time too. The food places in the area are also delicious. Bedding was comfortable and clean!! Will definitely be coming back

    The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable about the area and helping us plan our day, as we'd traveled to do the caves experience nearby. The restaurant meals were excellent, great steak and burgers and they were very accommodating for my vegetarian partner. The room itself was a little basic and showing its age, but perfectly comfortable and warm with kitchenette, tv, and private bathroom so the important things were there.

    The food supplied for breakfast was great - bacon and fresh eggs plus cereal and fruit juice - and the lovely touch of fresh baking! Not that far from Te Kuiti but very close to the Taumarunui highway if you were travelling that way. Very highly recommended!! The gardens were the highlight of the stay - like a small arboretum. Thank you Jill!

    It was clean, easily accessible, and spacious with parking right out the front of our unit. The manager was very helpful and very nice to deal with. We loved the amount of space and the bathroom/wet room was huge compared to most motel/hotel rooms.
