Abseil Inn

設施：好 衞生：好 環境：好 服務：好 很好

John and Helen were excellent and welcoming hosts. The room was comfortable and the breakfast was delicious! We were able to get checked in between our morning and afternoon cave tours and had a lovely stay! This was the only B&B we stayed at in New Zealand but we loved it!

Just a delightful, quirky place. The rooms were comfortable, the beds comfortable, the breakfast delicious, and the owners delightful. A small place (only 6 rooms I think) and very convenient for the Cave. One warning: If you complain that the road to the Inn is steep (which it is), you will be required to pay $5 NZ to the Red Cross! :-)

Although the way up the hill to where the B&B is, seems like a reversed abseil, that is all part of the adventure for us. Straight-forward check in. We were given a list to note our preferences for breakfast, great! The hosts helped us out with heating up some food. There was a fine selection of books and dvd's which we browsed through. The themed rooms were small and somewhat noisy but we liked it nonetheless. It also has a porch with great view. John cooked us a delicious breakfast in the morning, we were really happy with this.

Myself and my boyfriend stayed a night here after a tour of the Waitomo caves. We were welcomed with open arms by Helen and John. Our room was perfectly situated to watch the sunset. Once you get over the driveway the views are fabulous. The room was perfect, air con to keep us cool at night with a powerful shower. Helen has a breakfast card for you to fill out and she all options covered from juices to fruit and yogurt to hot choices. I had some particularly delicious strawberries. Highly recommend you select the Waitomo Eggs (similar to eggs Benedict but with Johns secret recipe - your mind and taste pallets will be blown away) they were delicious!! John kindly introduced to around 6 different types of honey - one as delicious as the next. Tried some peanut and dark chocolate peanut butter and peanut, chilli and paprika peanut butter. Worth trying, very delicious- we are going to pick some up before leaving. There is a lovely relaxed chill out/breakfast space with a fridge of beverages for you to enjoy in the sunshine. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

A quirky lovely spot …. John and Helen were so kind and attentive it was delightful to spend time with them. Look it is what it claims to be and if you embrace that it’s a fab stay. Johns passion for honey and peanut butter was epic thanks John. Parking is a bit of a Jenna game so make sure Johns there to advise you !!
