Waipiata Country Hotel

A great country hotel. Great service, fantastic food, very helpful staff.

Fantastic price, relaxed feeling

I liked the isolation of the hotel and the friendliness of the staff and locals. A comfortable room with nice en suite. The breakfast (cereal, toast etc.) included was a real bonus and a chance to meet other travelers. Also it was very good value for money!

Lovely and clean, great service with an old world feel in a quiet country setting.

Rural old country pub, we stayed on a Friday night when all the locals turned up. Large meals of country style food. Great Southern hospitality. Comfy bed. Loved it

Very impressed with the level of sevice and relaxed atmosphere. Would certainly recommend it as a place to stay in the Maniototo.

Fantastic place to stay, very clean and tidy. Very helpful and friendly. The pub has amazing food. Will be back again...

I love the friendliness of this country pub, the publican has the easy going attentive manner, the food is amazing. Id wanted to come and stay for a while since i had previously lived in duntroon and on occassion gone for a ride with others over danseys for the day and they had introduced me to waipiata country hotel, i liked going there from the first day i stepped in the door. Id always wanted to have dinner here rather than a quick lunch. It didnt disappoint.

A great place to stop. Mark and his team are super friendly and helpful. And the pies are to die for

Excellent hotel - recently decorated and staff are so friendly. Pies are fantastic too!

Classic country hotel. Lots to like. Nice ensuite room and good sized lounge (with lovely fire!) just down the hallway. Plenty of evening meal options at the bar. Good selection for the continental breakfast next morning too - great way to end our stay. Thanks Waipiata Hotel!

Very friendly and helpful staff. Great food and very good selection available. The room was ok but a small fridge could have been handy as it was a very hot day.

Nice continental breakfast, comfortable rooms and a nice beer garden

We had an excellent one night stay while on the rail trail. Very friendly and helpful staff, nice beds, good water pressure, fast wifi, covered bike parking, nice outdoor spaces, great continental breakfast which even included granola with dried raspberries, fresh fruit and plunger coffee. Hotel guests have nice shared lounge. Overall one of our finest and most memorable stays in NZ over a month of travel this trip. Couples: cheese platters available. Cyclers: Rooms include the continental breakfast, free laundry available (self-serve), ample filtered drinking water for water bottles, 50 meters off the trail. Not connected to the room itself but important to note: the pub has excellent food and drinks at a very fair price. The pies are house-made and excellent--we did Thai Lamb and Pumpkin-Spinach-Feta. The place was pretty busy on a Monday night with locals--always a great sign!

Great food

Great little country hotel in the back of beyond, very yummy food, especially the pies. Very comfortable bed with good facilities.

A great experience and good accommodation - recommended.

Ever thought about staying at a real genuine country tavern ? meet the locals, eat 'real' food locally sourced with helping sizes city pubs forgot about long ago? then this is the place for you...

Lovely country pub.Great welcome, lovely food. Reccomend it

Mark was a very welcoming host. The room was comfortable, nicely decorated and very clean. The meals in the restaurant were excellent and well priced. Would definitely recommend a stay here wether you're riding the rail trail or just passing through the area.
