The bed bunks are the best! very comfy mattress, lovely privacy curtain and enough space for your stuff. The stairs to te top bunks is big (block of wood) so not painful like most. The chill area in the middle was very nice, kitchen as big, the dog was cool and the staff is the best! I stayed here again on my way back for 4 nights and told all my travel friends to book here.

Great eating out, some a little overpriced however. Monday is a very quiet night for eating out!
For a good unpretentious meal try Cobb and Co. The Vine has a vast range of goodies. The Indian restaurants are all good.

A very nice town.
A very nice town. Small enough to be charming, large enough to have many choices for nearby activities and dining. We stayed here as a base for seeing things in Rotorua as well which was only a hour drive away, though some of the best thermal parts near Rotorua are only 40 minutes away.

1-2 days maximum is more than enough.
1-2 days maximum is more than enough. Food their is great and beautiful coffee, but do keep in mind everything is expensive as it is a tourist spot. Otherwise great location to visit. I visited Huka falls and Wairakei terrace hot pools which was an amazing experience.

Good selection of activities and a beautiful lake to swim in or take a boat ride. Many choices of restaurants and cafes serving up good tasty food. Lots of retail shops catering for clothing, souvenirs, charity shops, churches and a great library.

Was not in Taupo long but what I saw looked good. Smaller town with a nice atmosphere. Plenty of places to eat, things to see and do. Getting around Taupo in peak hours is a challenge so time your travel.

We just wanted the best affordable accommodation as we were passing through to spend the day with family then returned again the next night. Loved having a comfortable and spacious hotel type room to relax in after a long drive.
We had a family room, which although not what we needed was all that was available with our last minute booking. It had plenty of space for the 2 of us but may have been cramped for a family of 4, but I guess that applies to most motels. Everything was clean and tidy and the room facilities were more than enough for our 3 day stay. Although we were about 2.5km from the centre of Taupo we were only about 100m from the lake shore and the walk into Taupo could be easily made using the walkway along the lake shore. We did it a couple of times.
This was a last-minute find after another booking cancelled due to Cyclone Gabrielle damage, and we were very pleasantly surprised to find it in such prime location right on Lake Taupo, with nice walking path at lake's edge, a nice pool, walking distance to restaurant at Two Mile Bay Sailing Club, short drive to downtown, and a spacious 2-story unit that felt like a nice apartment. Helpful management & staff. Wish we'd had more than one night to stay and enjoy this fabulous find!!
beautifully set up, furnishings were lovely, very comfortable bed, fantastic location - view over the lake, quiet location, easy drive to the lake, local shops and Taupo itself.
All the little extras were a nice touch - so much nicer than a normal motel room, and so spacious.
We would love to have made use of the outdoor area / bbq, but it wasn’t the weather for it. very warm and cosy j side though!
Highly recommended!
Perfect hotel, perfect location, perfect view - a lovely lakeside apartment hotel. Attractive landscaping surrounds about 20 rooms in this 2 story complex. Ours was on the second floor with a straight out view of the lake. I loved everything about this place - including the reception staff who proved both informative and helpful. And after settling in we walked the two minutes to the compact and lovely downtown.
One of our favourite hostels we stayed in. The private room was small but perfect. 2 toilets and showers per 4 rooms. Lovely big kitchen and dining area, and nice smaller area to chill out in. There's a board with free/cheap suggestions of what to do in Taupo. Lovely garden with hammocks, and a very cute hostel dog.
Stunning property situated on the river that runs from Lake Taupo to the Huka Falls. The main lodge is beautifully appointed and provides seating and dining areas inside and outside. The rooms are equally wonderfully, each having access to a Porch, rolling grass and the river view.
I was staying and working while my partner attended a family event and I was really impressed with the quality of wireless which allowed me to work on VPN all day with good speed and no issues. Really pleased and we had a nice time in Taupo when we both had some spare time.
It is across the road from Lake Taupō, and could be seen from the warm pool and spa. After my stay, I had planned to visit my friend in Taupō but because of the Auckland floods she couldn't make it back in time. The motel owner allowed me to stay the extra night for free.
Amazing views from the hilltop. Beautiful sunrise on morning. The hosts are extremely accommodating and we had a wonderful time. The dogs are so friendly and breakfast was delicious! If we are ever near Lake Taupo again we'll be staying here!
Don is amazing. It felt like a family member was welcoming us home. The place was clean, overlooking lake Taupō. It has good space to spread out! Thank you for the bag of chocolates on our arrival as well!
The hotel was easy to locate and right across the street from the lake. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes/utensils and spotless. the bathroom was very large with an adjoining dressing/store room.
Quite a handy location, just in front of lake Taupo. Accessibility of the motel and walking distance to the City Center and commercial areas. The staff was supportive.
Great location near a natural hot spring, cheap for Taupo. Also some cool history, although you have to go looking for the information! And has aircon.
