Search hotels in Waiouru

My baby and I stayed for 2 nights and enjoyed everything about Waiouru. We were at the Oasis motel which is across the road from the Z gas station and next to a Diner,bakery, bar & bottle store which breaks off from the motel but still far away from the rooms. A bit secluded but love how everything’s so close and the nice cold weather.

Location was good, quite. Cafe/eatery at southern end of town would benefit from better customer service. Food overpriced but ok for satisfying hunger. Public toilets clean and well maintained.

Surprised by the great collection and displays of military equipment from the last century at the Waiouru Military Museum Found my uncle on the wall of remembrance, he was killed in Europe during the Second World War He must have done his corps training at Waiouru

Whole town needs a good lick of paint. Needs to make more of its opportunities. Has huge amount of traffic, but to be honest, not much street appeal. You wouldn't stay unless you were there for a purpose. Such a shame

The town seems run down but it suited us to stop for the night as everywhere else that was a reasonable price was booked out. We had our own food and arrived late as we'd driven up from the ferry in Wellington so it was great to have a motel with a kitchen. Didn't visit anywhere as we left early next morning.

Small but quaint town. Absolutely loved staying here.. Has everything you need for a night or 2. Conveniently located. The Italian place has the best huuuuuge meals for a great price. The pub was lacking staff, so no food but still nice to get a beer and a game off pool. Plenty to do and see in the area and lots of exploring to be had especially with an off road vehicle.
