The Totara Lodge was a good choice for our one night stay in Levin. It is in a quiet location just to the west of the main street, and in easy walking distance to dining options and supermarkets. The room had everything we needed and was clean and tidy. Can recommend the local Som Thum Thai on the main street if you’re looking for a quick meal (good food, licensed, good service).

What a lovely gem of a place. Check in was easy, the room was spotless and comfortable, and the owner was lovely. The beds were so comfy, we joked that we’d take them with us. Oh, and there is a cat who was the highlight for myself and my friends (all kitten fosterers). Highly recommended if you find yourself in Levin.

The room was spacious, very adequate and comfortable. A bit dated and some of the furnishings were a bit tired, but that was fine, and given the price per night it was overall good value for money.
