Mokena is a charming 1860’s historic building original used as a single mans boarding house in the gold mining days in the Waikato. Retaining all its natural history and character Mokena has been transformed into a boutique 10 bedroom hotel with a truly magnificent buffet restaurant, one of the best in the Waikato.
Situated in the heart of Te Aroha Mokena is the perfect place to stay while enjoying all the surrounding attractions Te Aroha has to offer. And in only a few minutes you can walk to the main street of town and the Domain, host to the Te Aroha mineral and leisure pools which we are sure you will enjoy.
Mokena is also the home of one of the Waikato largest out catering services. From private functions in your home to wedding and large corporate events, Mokena have years of experience and professional staff to make your event one to remember with minimal stress. We also offer the services of our onsite Event Manager who will organize your event one on one each step of the way.
We look forward to seeing you at Mokena, your hosts Bryan and Fionna Carnegie.
