Out of all of the Haka House’s we stayed in this was our favourite. We only spent a night before our glacier hike, but the private king room was super comfortable and a nice short walk to restaurants and activities.

Check in was a little confusing but we got there eventually with ID. Seems all our Haka House bookings randomly changed name to my wife

The kitchen and all bathrooms were clean and well maintained. There are a sufficient number of bathrooms and toilets to serve all of the guests. I especially liked the sauna!

El personal fue muy atento y amable durante la estancia. Nos explicó que hacer durante los días ahí

La cocina y el comedor están junto a la sala de juegos y mientras estabas comiendo había jóvenes armando lío y bebiendo. Muy desagradable y ruidoso Las puertas eran muy rudiosad también y no dejaban dormir del ruido de gente entrando y saliendo de las habitaciones y de los baños
