Awesome comfy room with all we needed. Beds were comfortable and the room was quiet despite the place being so busy. Off street parking right by the room (family room).
Great value and a good location too.
Staff were super friendly and helpful.

Our stay in this centrally located motel was great, due in part to the very warm welcome from staff and the ongoing interactions with them. They were very happy to help. All amenities were just as described in their website.
Overall a great base for site seeing in Taupo.

There are many ants in the room. The swimming pool and hot bathtub are small and not clean. There is a lot of hair on the blanket and sheet. No soundproofing.

Great Motel, spa, heated pool and EV charging was a fantastic extra
LEO B
enjoyed the hot tub which made the short stay
Joshua
Best spot in Taupo no doubt!!
Patta
We booked a spa room and were allocated room #26 which is great and at the back of the property away from road.
Also a plus for us who drive EV car, this motel has 3 chargers to accommodate guests..LOVE IT!
Bedroom is nice and comfy, nice bed with heat pump. Spa room comes with separate shower.
Location is also great, you can park then walk everywhere.
Checkin was easy and quick.
All in all, we will stay here again and would recommend to anyone.

Fabulous hotel in Taupo, highly recommended!
Delphine
Excellent stay during the Ironman week, next to the transition area, walking distance from Ironman village, finish zone and restaurants.
Jacqueline
Good cooking facilities however very limited cooking utensils and pans making it difficult to prepare meals.
Clean but tired. Walls very thin, sound carries through.

The two bedroom rooms are huge, very clean and comfortable. Friendly staff and we loved the spa after a day of mountain biking. Just a couple of blocks from the centre of town and the lake. A great motel option.

Room was great and a good size it was nice and clean. Walking distance to town which was good. Would stay again

No complaints except cost to use laundry facilities rather high.
Barry
No telephone, no shampoo no elevator and overpriced,.
Clearly, the high rating did not apply to this property. Everything was worn and the staff were not available.

Great one night stay - spacious room , small view of the lake , location awesome for a walk into town for evening meal , priced very well , Would recommend for sure
John-Paul
Clean rooms and friendly staff.
Marcia
Comfy clean room but shower leaked out to bathroom floor.
Lynda
The room is very old and run down, and it appears there has been little to no upkeep of the property, with a stronger focus on guest turnover. Although laundry facilities are advertised, they come at a charge of $25 per load, so we chose to use a laundromat in town instead.
There is a kitchenette, however it is not adequately equipped to cook a full meal. Only one pot and one pan are provided, and they cannot be used on the hotplates at the same time. No toiletries are supplied, so be sure to bring your own body wash, shampoo and conditioner.
The two-bedroom family unit feels like it needs a thorough clean and would benefit greatly from some updating. On the positive side, the rooms were spacious and the beds were comfortable.

The room was fantastic. Spa bath, comfy chairs, nice balcony with view. Only thing missing was a decent mug for a cuppa.
Johanna
All good, had what we needed for our short stay. Did get a quite hot in the room but overall was alright as it did cool down later at night
Julie
Clean spacious airy room, friendly reception staff
Mark
Very spacious room. Everything needed was there.
Sazia
Looked liked the pool was not being in use for quite some time. The pool was dirty and definitely looked like wasn’t getting regular maintenance. The king bed was joined together by two single beds making it uneven in the middle caused my husband’s back problems. Neighbors were noisey when closing the doors. Otherwise everything else’s was okay.
Dan
Lovely apartment, clean and tidy, washing machine and friendly staff.
Colleen
Pleasant stay
Susan
The room was spotless. Staff friendly and approachable. Highly recommend. Would stay there again.
Mark
Motel is alright. Not far from downtown and an easy walk to the lakefront.
They advertise a pool and hot tub but they’re very poorly maintained and VERY dirty. We couldn’t use either. Room itself was fine. AC worked. Beds had some sort of electrical device in them with a cord leading out. I think it was a heated mattress pad but anyway it was really uncomfortable to have it digging into your back.
Our windows only had blackout curtains. So you either had all the light coming in and no privacy or you were turning your lights on during the day
Not sure I’d stay here again.

The hotel staff, as well as the cleaning staff, are very friendly. However, the hotel is somewhat outdated, the studio’s equipment is very basic, and the 6 m² terrace faces the neighbor’s boundary wall.
Upon our arrival in the early afternoon, we were confronted with constant noise: shouting, loud laughter, conversations, and music coming from a group of guests in the rooms above ours. Their behavior was also disrespectful, as they were throwing empty beer cans onto our terrace and the neighboring one.
I went several times to report the issue to the reception and asked for a room change, but no alternative was offered. The manager spoke to the guests, but nothing changed. We had to keep our window closed at all times, yet the noise remained perfectly audible. The situation continued the entire day, from 2 p.m. until 11 p.m.
I must say that I have never experienced anything like this in a hotel, and I am extremely disappointed. As we had an additional night booked, I returned to the reception the next morning to explain that I had paid for two nights and deserved to sleep without earplugs. Fortunately, on the second day, after further action from the manager, we were no longer disturbed by noise.
The hotel staff should have immediately moved us to another studio, even if it meant placing us in a more expensive room at their own expense, as this would have been the minimum expected in such a situation.

Tidy rooms with limited cooking facilities but no range hood over cooker. Kitchen utensils need upgrade and new scourer for each stay. Waited ages when first arrived and no one came to reception so had to leave and come back later.
Cathy
Everything was great! Clean room, great view of the lake, could walk anywhere and great staff. Highly recommend!

Good location in terms of where it is in Taupo but the room I had looked right out to the neighbouring residential property and into their kitchen etc. No privacy unless the curtains were closed.
Anna

Nahid
Room size is okay
Selene
Laundry is well hidden and when I asked was told it costs $20 for washing machine and dryer .
The unit next to the spa pool catches a lot of noise from children using the pool. Could hear the people clearly talking in the unit next to us. Easy check in and check out. Bed was firm and comfortable bedding. Pillows on the firm side. Walking distance to shops and restaurants

Reception was friendly and very efficient. Room was very clean and equipped with all that is needed without any wasteful packaging on products or supplies.
The in-room spa tub is a great feature.
Easy walk to town when the weather is good.

We were really happy with our stay at Lake Taupo Motor Inn. The location was perfect, easy walking distance to the lake and main shops. The room was spotless and comfortable.
Klaire
The property itself was clean and tidy, staff were friendly. Room was serviced which was really nice to have clean towels and coffee tea etc topped up. Some of the other guests were loud but that can't be helped I guess.
Jenny

Layla
Had a fairly nice stay, would go back for an overnight if ever stopping at Taupo again.

Didn’t like that there were ants and walls are quite thin so you can hear the people next door.

Disappointing service
\"Great\" surprise upon arrival on a chilly winter evening - no hot water.
After calling the reception on our mobile the night manager seemed very surprised and promised to take action. No call back, no feedback, no apologies at checkout in the morning. The hot water eventually came back in the morning but we definitely won't be back.

Good lay out for families, we were very glad to have electric blankets on beds. Just what we needed for our short stay and well priced.
The bathroom needs attention the shower door kept catching on bottom and shower pressure then caused shower head to fall on floor, it was very hard to get it in the right position when I showered and we had to end up holding shower head so youngest could shower. We were well accommodated for when I let staff know we wouldn’t make staffed check in hours my only gripe would be it was cold and it would have been nice if heat pump had been turned on, but not I complaint just me being a little picky

The only thing was the shower head. If you turn it on to full, the shower head would shoot up to the ceiling so had to shower with half pressure. Aside from this, lovely property, location, clean and would stay again.
