Mangapapa is by far the best place we stayed on our last trip, I can't really fault it. We stayed one night on our way back to Auckland, the room was clean, quiet, comfortable and well appointed. The shower had great pressure with a generous array of toiletries available. Dinner was an absolute standout. I enjoyed one of the finest steak and wine pairings I’ve ever had—beautifully prepared and perfectly matched. Despite staying on a quiet Sunday night at the end of the school holidays, when we were the only overnight guests, the staff never missed a beat. They were warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. It was a flawless experience, and we’ll absolutely be back next time we’re in the area. Highly recommended.

On arrival I was a bit disappointed as the hotel seemed rather remote and not near any shops, bars or restaurants. However if you don’t mind being isolated the hotel is beautiful with the most fantastic rooms and wonderful food. We had two dinners included and they were both exceptional. The staff were wonderful .

The staff are exceptional. They are friendly and helpful. The food in the restaurant is top notch. We had the 5 course set menu dinner and it was divine. The rooms are lovely. This was the second time that my wife and I stayed at Mangapapa and we would recommend it to anyone.

We were gifted some vouchers as a wedding present and were so looking forward to our visit, however overall it was really disappointing. The food was the absolute highlight, so nicely prepared and beautiful to eat. The service was also very good. The biggest let down was our room; the bed was incredibly uncomfortable and made terrible creaking noises any time we moved. The pillows were awful and we came away with very sore backs. We passed this feedback on at check out and were simply told 'no one else has ever given that feedback'. We also had no hot water in the bathroom sink which I can see has been mentioned in previous reviews. We also had massages at the spa; one therapist was ok, the other did not want to be there. Given how much they charge we feel they absolutely need to lift their game. Visit for the food but steer well clear of everything else.

We are staying at this stunning boutique hotel at the moment. What a find!! We are just so impressed with our whole stay! The attention to detail of all the staff is outstanding. From the moment we arrived we have been impressed by the impeccable attention to detail of each staff member. Our beautiful room is perfectly decorated and is sparkling clean! Tonight we dined in the restaurant! The food was the best food we have eaten in many years! We could not fault one thing! It was absolutely perfect. From the homemade bread, butter, the little sorbet ice cream between courses, the entree and the main meal, absolutely delicious! The grounds are impeccably maintained, the pool, spa and tennis court all amazing. I would highly recommend this beautiful hotel! It has been an absolute pleasure to stay here. Thank you for making our holiday so wonderful.

I received a group of 12 friends for a celebration high tea and it was beautifully setup. Champagne or grape juice was offered at the beginning and eventually tea or coffee. The service was very good and the offerings for the high tea delicious and prettily presented. I spent 2 nights with my daughter in a very comfortable beautifully furnished room followed by a good breakfast selection. The setting of the hotel is rustic but the hotel itself delightful with its antique ambiance. Unfortunately we were not able to sample any other services offered by the hotel. I would like to add that all the staff were very pleasant and eager to help.

We had a special occasion, and we thought there is no better place, then to stay at Mangapapa Hotel and have High tea and Dinner. Upon our arrival we got greeted by Alaria and taken straight up to our room, which was a spacious Homestead Suite. We immediately,we went to the dining room and had our High tea, which consisted of a wide selection of savoury and sweet treats. Very tasty and very artistic prepared by Chef Lovely, and well explained by Alaria . For dinner we had a 3 course and 5 course menu. The selection of courses was perfect, portion size just right and the flavours were amazing. Well done Chef Young. We received great service from Patience our waitress and a young man from Nepal, which I forgot. Sorry Our room was very comfortable and clean, and my wife enjoyed the bath. Breakfast consisted of a continental section and hot food to be chosen off the menu,which was fairly extensive. The homemade sour dough bread selection was very tasty. We enjoyed our time very much. the Service was antentive,but never intrusive. We certainly would stay again at the Mangangapa Hotel. Thank you for a lovely stay

Located a few short minutes from town, this exquisite little hotel has all the quiet comforts of the countryside, sheep and bunnies included. The gardens were beautiful even as fall approached. We loved the unit. The restaurant and all the staff were amazing. We will definitely revisit.
