Lovely hotel due for renovation in the later part of 2011. Highly recommended and may get better with the new look!

Lovely lovely stay at the Chateau. I highly recommend this to anyone going to Whakapapa. We were a little apprehensive of the price at first, but it was all well worth it. Rooms were exquisite and brought us back to the good old days of the colonial era. The wood work was marvellous, and the carpets and drapery (although musty) reminded me of the charming days of the Titanic. The windows offered wonderful views at any time of the day, and were like frames to the changing weather. Our room had a nicely refurbished bathroom, a fridge, coffee making machine, and a good-sized wardrobe. There were also in-house movies (pretty old though) which you could watch from the comfort of your bed. Service was excellent, and the staff promptly responded to all our requests with a smile. The hotel, needless to say, is well located, on the slopes of Ruapehu. Beautiful, beautiful vistas from the golf course. The main hall also has a window arch that overlooks the Ngauruhoe. Totally magical.
