Noeline
Nice and easy booking. Reception and the Front of house very friendly and helpful.
RALPH
The shower was really dangerous for .elderly people, no safety handles on shower walls and nowhere except the floor for shampoo, caked soap etc. we will not be returning as there are no facilities for a make your own breakfast and not even a plate or knife to have some fruit
Ihipera

Just spent one night, the location is a short drive out from town so dining options are limited

Staff was excellent, mattress was uncomfortable its pass its expiration. Shower is rusty and lack of pressure. The most important thing a guest needs is sleep/rest that definitely didn't happen during our stay.

Tina
Staff at reception were friendly, bed was uncomfortable, needs a new mattress, water pressure was not good, breakfast was average, was quite noisy with the people in the room next to us. Good location, off the road.
Robbie
So disappointed. Cost alot of money and did not feel we got value for money. Our room was 2 levels up and was not sound proof from people next door if they were talking outside. The room was very basic. Not as nice as it looked on line. Bed was okay but not great. Hubby and I didnt sleep well, had a pretty terrible night. During the night, not sure what time, it sounded like pipes making this terrible noise. Like someone turned on a tap. It startled us both. So biggest downside was price for a very basic room. Noise from people outside talking, so had to close windows. Basic bed. Definitely not value for money. I know a place as big as this must struggle in this tough economy but if we are going to treat ourselves to a motel/hotel its a treat and this definitely wasnt.
Hayley
Very nice area
Teresa
Would like to thank the receptionist for the awesome welcome and stay. She was absolutely lovely and made us feel very welcome also to the cleaning staff thank you hope you enjoy the buscuits thank you again Lakeland Resort

Small issue as room felt hot and muggy. Turned out that the hot bath tap had been left slightly on probably when cleaned. Easily fixed. Staff were friendly, parking easy and the breakfast ticked all the boxes. Had an evening meal in ghe dining room. Service was excellent and a good meal with pldnty of choices.
Darrell
Sky tv went of at night and didn’t come back on soap in shower empty no plates or even a toaster would have been great so could of made breakfast if not wanting to eat at the restaurant bed uncomfortable staff pleasant
Ben
Was still hairs from shaving still in sink in bathroom
Jinny
Great shower
Marie
The main building, reception and restaurant were very appealing. The meal in the restaurant was excellent. Our room was comfortable and clean. The rest of the resort was run down. The pool was clean but the surrounding garden was overgrown, and the gazebo was in disrepair. The spa room was not available. The laundry was ok. Parking was convenient, in front of our room. I would class this place more as just a motel, rather than a 'resort'.
Christine
Great location, room clean.
Martin
Quiet , marvellous view from room across the lake . Very clean , sleep well. Martin
Imogen
Good spot for a short stay. Room was large and clean and staff were lovely.
John
Not close to shops. Restaurant was very nice for dinner. Continental breakfast was great value
Jason
Our room on the 2nd floor had lovely views. Close to the lake. Our room didn't have a microwave or plates/bowls but reception staff were very helpful to provide some when asked.
Antoinette
Great staff very friendly and welcoming.Shower had great pressure.Bathroom could do with work but was clean .Definitely would stay again
Vikki J.
Everything was wonderful, absolutely loved the spa tub! It’s within walking distance of the lake and the view of the lake was spectacular! The amenities were many and perfect! We also enjoyed the hot tub. It is nice that they schedule 30 minute time slots so you don’t have to sit in a hot tub with strangers!
Garry
Easy check in, rooms a little dated and a bit noisy at night
Lianne
Great parking fantastic staff clean rooms
Simon
Clean and well kept
Peter
I enjoyed my stay, coming here to participate in the Ironman event. I found the staff to be very friendly and professional, particularly Mable and Richard. Mable always greeted me by name. The room was clean and spacious. Great facilities, tennis courts and a fabulous pool. I dined twice at the hotel restaurant and the food was very nice and reasonably priced. Richard the restaurant manager was very efficient and professional. Thanks for your hospitality, I will certainly be back! Thank you for making my weekend so special.

A nice property a short drive from the town centre.
The Internet access was a bit slow during the evening.
I found the mattress hard and woke with a sore back.

Furniture outdated/ Broken. Unruly road workers staying at the resort were drinking alcohol directly outside our room till 2am in the morning, I couldnt get a wink of sleep due to the noise they were making, my wife felt unsafe to step outside the room as she felt continously watched. Although the other guests who were at the resort put a downer on our stay - The staff were very respectful and welcoming
Andrew
Room was quite. Bed a little soft. Would have liked plates in room but a good stay
Cristine
Spotlessly clean
Challis
The place was very clean and location very handy!the staff were helpful ! The place is somewhat outdated and needs some fixer ups to help but otherwise put together well. Signage was falling apart and new paint and carpet is helpful.

Unclean bath room (dead flies on wall/ceiling, mold in shower, old amenities), icky water boiler, one bedside table for 3 beds, worn-out mattresses and chair
Maree
Room clean, nice view of the lake. Quiet as it wasn’t very full.
Bernie
No sorry room was not spotless two empty bottles under bed, the safety drain was completely blocked with fluff and debris
I was quite shocked the whole complex need some love and attention to details eg wooden handrails on steps need repair showing rotting wood , lots of a good clean up needed on outside eg a good water blasting on steps paintwork ect poor place was looking tied and in un loved state sorry to say
As there is so much competition in Taupo they need to up there game
Windows on back wall facing very over grown hedge moss on windows, gardens just need he attention to detail .
Yes I was hotel manager for many years these thing are equally important as the lovely front of house personal
Which I might add were very helpful friendly personal
I absolutely hate doing this but I hate to see businesses go down hill by lazy staff or management

Of all our stays in New zealand this was very poor
Shower had black mold growing on a large portion of grout, and shower door, water temps went from scalding hot to icy cold. During the night there was a leakage of water? into the contents of my suitcase requiring washing & drying of all affected contents.also my brand new expensive jacket now has stains in in from the leakage
Television required repairing in our room while we were in room. skylights in covered check-in area were covered in heavy black mold . staff was pleasant and friendly especially Mabel
i’m sorry i cannot recommend this hotel for the overall conditions

Robin
Tired based on age of property. TV was meant to be 42 inch, closer to a 32 inch. Nice to have a desk and chair. Ample pillows and nice, comfy beds, soft, medium and hard so a goldilocks choice. Linen clean.
Toilet paper and milk not replenished for second night.
Cobwebs in window sill recess even after housekeeping done.
Restaurant, limited options but what we got was 10/10.
Shanks and steak. Breakfast limited, based on options $20 would have been a fairer price.cost scrambled eggs so perfect, warm, soft and not watery, hash browns overcooked so dry. Noted mugs had old coffee stains, time to buy new ones. Dining chairs a bit hard at edge and got uncomfortable. Internet not great on second night probably as full occupancy compared to 30;percent previous night. Staff were pleasant, however didn’t ask if we had any issues.

Amazingly friendly staff, food was amazing. The room was clean but a fair few cobwebs and missing appeal in the room, otherwise did not impact our stay.
Cathy
The beds need upgrading as one was not level and the mattresses were quite uncomfortable. The bathroom ceiling was covered in dead flies. All very basic.
John
The staff were welcoming but the food was bad, bathrooms were dirty and they never once serviced the rooms even though they said they would. Had to ask just to get clean towels
Chandar
Though he property is old, I can see the evidence that the management is doing there best to rectify the issues mentioned in the past reviews.
The location is excellent, close to restaurants and walking paths. The staff is friendly and professional.
Enjoyed my stay and will stay there in future.
