We have stayed at the Wairakei on numerous occasions and have always loved it there. The hot pool is superb, and the beds are really comfy. The staff have always been obliging and helpful. We also love the casualness of the place where you don't have to dress up for dinner etc. We would definitely recommend this hotel to others

A favourite of our family. Never disappoints. Great, friendly and helpful staff. Very clean rooms and lovely grounds. The restaurant food was yummy, great portions and affordable. Cut the trip short as our eldest wasn’t well, staff upgraded us and put us in a quieter and bigger family suite. Was very grateful for that. We will be back. Thank you.
