Myself and my partner had the best time ever!! Service was a 10/10, if we needed anything they were right there to help us. Food was a 10/10 delicious dinner and a great range of breakfast items. Overall an amazing hotel. We will be back!!

beautifully decorated

From the warm hand towel and kiwi juice, the friendly welcome and helpfulness of the Manager set the standard for our stay at Te Waonui Forest Retreat. Our room was beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. Fluffy towels and under floor heating in the bathroom a fabulous addition. Breakfasts and the degustation dinner’s generous and delicious.

We were originally staying at one of your sister hotels but we’re advised we had been relocated/upgraded. We were only staying one night so we were not too bothered. That said, the room was excellent with 2 large double beds and great location near to our original location. The welcome staff at the desk and especially the valet were 5 star. It’s a shame we didn’t stay in Frank Josef longer, we would have used the facilities more.
