We were really pleased with our little ensuite room. Nicely decorated in a shabby chic style. The shower was great, the bed was comfortable and it was all spotlessly clean. Outside the window were lavender plants so we had a lovely scent coming in. Stored our ice blocks in the communal kitchen freezer and ate at the pub/restaurant next door which was really good food. Delighted with the tiny town, ate breakfast at Fat Pigeon which was also lovely food.

Everthing was perfect. Leo and Barbara have a wonderful house where I immediatly felt warmly welcome. It was great sharing our dinner time together and spending time chatting in the evening with your friends too. The bedroom was really very quiet and the bed amazingly comfortable. The visit of the farm and land with Leo in the morning was also an great experience, adn wil be part of my best memories in NZ. Thanks a lot for everything.

First, Mel and Glenn-- they're so nice, so very accommodating, sat with us by a lovely fire pit overlooking their expansive valley view and talked about their family, domestic and farm animals, and hobbies, while we shared our stories and the horror that the US has become in one short month before we began asking about NZ emigration procedures! After nightfall, Glenn pointed out the Southern Cross and Milky Way and we headed inside as we had an early morning. Our room was large, the beds comfortable, and there were many fun snacks to munch on, which we tried not to eat but hey, vacation is for trying new things, right? Sorry if sheets were filled with crumbs, Mel, and thanks for everything!

The decking was a bonus. We enjoyed being close to the train track. The trains were very infrequent but they were interesting to watch. Overall a quiet location and only a short drive into town to eat. The staff were very friendly and helpful!

I had a fantastic experience at this hostel! The receptionist was very friendly and helpful during check-in, making me feel welcome from the start. The shared kitchen was tidy and spacious, providing a great space to cook and socialize. I also want to highlight the excellent service from the staff. I accidentally locked myself out late at night, but when I called for help, they responded quickly and assisted me in unlocking my room door. Overall, a great stay with excellent service. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Piopio a nice little town.

Piopio a nice little town. The motel is just off the main road so not disturbed by traffic noise. Having the restaurant along side the motel is a bonus. A nice drive out to the falls which were in full torrent due to all the rain. Very I.pressive.

A small town in a lovely rural area.

A small town in a lovely rural area. A decent restaurant for dinner and a great café for breakfast or lunch. We have often broken journeys from Tāmaki Makaurau to Taranaki or other places further south, here. Great to charge your car while staying at the Fat Owl or by using the OpenLoop fast charger.

Great place to base yourself for either a quiet or adventurous visit to the area. So much nearby really in a quiet yet bustling town. Three hidden gems - The Cosmopolitan Club, Fat Pigeon Cafe and Piopio Berry Orchard!!

This is a small town with a big heart.

This is a small town with a big heart. Our first stop was the Fat Pigeon Cafe for lunch - delicious food with a view of the park. We then walked up and down the two sides of the street, stopping to look at the restored old school bus and poster board, the art gallery, craft shop and op shops before having a hot chocolate from the coffee cart at the other end of the street. For dinner we ate at The Night Owl restaurant- loved the decor, the food portions were HUGE and super tasty,
