Beautiful. Couldn't fault the staff, food, decor, location!! We had a small hiccup with a hired Tesla but the team were very accommodating and helped us every step of the way. We will be back - thank you team Huka Lodge!

An exquisite holiday experience in a pristine setting

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

Not many properties on this Earth compare to Huka Lodge. A very, very special place and worth every cent. This pristine location deserves this pristine lodge with exquisite accommodation , food and service. You won’t be disappointed with your stay here any time of the year.

Beautiful lodge but needs some changes

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 months ago

Not the luxury lodge you would expect from this price point. There were multiple signs throughout the room with prices for items (a backpack left in the room, room slippers). I’ve been given nicer backpacks for free at other lodges and was shocked they were trying to charge for this one. Prices were listed on the menus for the included cocktail hour, my masseuse tried to sell me on a $40 eye mask during my massage. Poor taste at a property like Huka. The staff were all at the lodge for less than a year and it showed. They were unfamiliar with the lodge amenities, things to do around the area and even general NZ info. We were never told lunch was included with our stay and they even had a sign in the room (again) that we would be charged for lunch. Also left was a sign that we would be charged 100% of our massage if we canceled less than 24 hrs before our appt. The lodge is nice but they need to work on their service.

Refined Elegance Meets Genuine Hospitality

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 7 months ago

Stepping into this hotel felt like entering a different world. The elegant décor and peaceful atmosphere instantly melted away our travel stress. Every interaction with the staff was genuine and warm, not the rehearsed politeness you often find elsewhere. The public spaces were immaculately maintained, and the subtle background music created the perfect mood. I particularly appreciated the quiet efficiency of the housekeeping team.

Beautiful lodge, wonderfully appointed rooms, very nice staff. Nice breakfast and dinners. Book your dinner location early to mix up the views. Enjoy a cocktail, cheees and crackers in library. Excellent hiking all around - the lodge is stunning but do get out to enjoy magical hikes.
