location brilliant place to go if you like stars we could see the milky way

breakfast in your room on a Sunday but we just sat on the bed and looked out off the window while we had ours

Really comfortable stay in a beautiful location. The property is located inside the national park, so it is easy to access great trails for day hikes. The on-site restaurant is fantastic, both for dinner and breakfast. Also a very nice room!

Peter and his staff made our stay the most amazing experience we could have imagined. Our trip was centered around our summit of Mt Taranaki, and staying at the lodge just completed what was an incredible weekend in Taranaki. Amazing people, fantastic food, clean, comfortable and warm room - perfect!

Nothing to complain, just a little gem of a place !

Nothing

Friendly host, superb location, attentive staff, great food in the restaurant. Continental breakfast provided on request. Checking out arrangements very straightforward. The setting on the lower slopes of a dormant volcano was the icing on the cake.

Everything was just as I would have wished - thank you.

Really clean and cosy.

The staff at Ngati Ruanui Stratford Mountain House were friendly, welcoming and efficient. The beds were very comfortable and the spa bath relaxing. The location is great for accessing some lovely walks on Mount Taranaki, with a little stroll down through the bush to their great restaurant which serves quality food and wine. A clear view of the mountain from the lawn beside our unit was a bonus.

Location was beautiful & so relaxing. Meal was superb!

The hotel rooms were very comfortable and clean- although we would have liked another chair to sit in. The management were very helpful and friendly. Unfortunately we had bad weather but the manager suggested a walk for us which was great.

We left before breakfast as 9am is too late and there weren't any other options.

The location is perfect Being on the mountain is exceptional The facilities are great too We have stayed multiple times

Nothing

Food, facilities, friendliness of staff.

Comfortable bed, good food

Terrible shower pressure, no long mirror in the room no iron in the room and when we went to use the iron in the laundry room we were met with staff that made us feel less then welcome to use this facility . The owners rushed us when ordering drinks etc...and pretended to be helpful but you could tell they didn't really give a toss about customer relations just how much money you owed them. We heard the owner telling off a staff member in front of the patrons. One of the guests with us was told across the other side of the bar to pay her bill in front of a room full of customers. This is feedback the owners should reflect on to improve the stay for those who are not locals.

Wonderful location & very friendly staff & management. Thank you again for another great stay!

Nothing comes to mind

Had 2 dinners during our stay and they were excellent. Beautifully presented and tasted delicious.

Sorry liked everything.

We couldn’t fault our stay. The reception, friendly staff who went the extra mile despite being short-staffed by Covid, and our room was very comfortable. The meal was beautifully presented and delicious. The mountain house exceeded our expectations and we would love to return one day.
