Set in Taupo, 36 km from Orakei Korako Cave and Thermal Park, Ashbrook Motel Taupo offers accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking. This 4-star motel offers room service and a tour desk. The property is non-smoking and is situated 36 km from Orakei Korako - The Hidden Valley.

The stay itself was a pleasure, but more than that, the exceptional, extremely friendly staff made this stay one we will never forget. Right from the start we were greeted so kindly and they even helped us get to the spa in Taupo. At this point, my mother and I would like to say thank you again! :) Taupo was a highlight of our New Zealand trip! :)

    We loved the view of the lake. 2 bathrooms was idea. A full kitchen fridge freezer dish washer full gas stove and oven (which we didn't use) cause we are out. Space in the room was being like at home. TV had available YouTube Neon Netflix sky so good choice with your own account of course. Excellent WiFi. Extra heaters in wardrobe which we needed. Great stay would love to return some weekend.
