Motels & Lodges
The Forgotten World Motel is situated in central Taumarunui near all amenities and offers a range of comfortable units, delicious breakfasts and is the starting point of most of the tours into the Forgotten World.
With a supermarket across the road and just a short stroll to the shopping hub of town with its array of restaurants and cafés, it is the best place to begin or finish your Forgotten World Adventure, or to break up your long drive between Wellington and Auckland.
The Motel is within easy reach of the ski fields of Mount Ruapehu and a wide range of outdoor activities, including riding the Forgotten World Railway in Rail Carts, Jet boating or canoeing down the Whanganui River, cycling the Timber Trail, hunting, trout fishing or tramping.
We have ample parking and are happy for your vehicle to remain with us while you are out exploring the Forgotten World.
