Always a great stay. Friendly staff, beautiful view from our room and the room itself was clean, and spacious, and amazing hotpools. Will be back.
The only thing to note was the double bed was quite firm - we stayed in the lake view 2 bedroom villa.

Fantastic place to stay in Taupō. We booked a basic cabin but were given a cabin with a mini kitchen and lots of extra space. Having a kettle, microwave, sink etc was very helpful and contributed to a comfortable stay. We were also given a small bottle of milk for teas and coffees in the room. The cabin was cosy, warm, and very close to the shared bathroom facilities. The facilities at this resort were spotless, spacious and there were an abundance of showers and toilets.

The thermal baths were also great and guests staying at the resort can enter at a reduced price.

I would highly recommend this place and would stay again in the future!

Lots of space in the room (we were in 6A) - only issue was it was a connected room and most people only stayed one night so were up super early crashing around in the morning(could easily hear talking and the tv through the wall). Shower was very weak, beds were fine though the single in the kids room was well past it. Kitchen amenities were good and clean. Parking was a little tight but doable. Good stay but very pricey for what it is.

The property is tired and dated. While it was relatively clean given age and state of buildings, there was very little upkeep to the grounds and gardens around the property and directly outside the unit. For example, the outdoor furniture was covered in dust - just plain dirty and with bird poop on the surface. There was rubbish in the little sad garden strip between the patio and the sad lawn that featured a pile of dog poop more or less straight in front of the step onto the lawn. Spider webs and dried leaf matter piles around the corners inside and out confirmed opinion of neglect. The we come to the pools themselves. Tired. Dated. Uninspiring surroundings and everything just feels past the used by date. I remember the heydays of the 1980's and it feels like nothing has happened on the upgrades and modernisation front since. Very disappointed overall and won't choose to stay again. The staff were pleasant and helpful but it felt bare minimum. There are much better options for accommodation and mineral pools in Taupo.

If the Hilton is not within your budget, the bungalows/cottages (equipped with fridge and coffee-making facility) on this campground next door could well be an excellent alternative for you. As one may expect, the bathroom facilities are shared, but well-heated and very clean. (These are strictly available to guests only with a security code) There is a common kitchen too. The famous hot springs are a 2-minute walk down the hill. Free wifi.

We love visiting these spa pools every time we visit Taupo. So staying at the resort was an easy choice. Easy check in and out, quick walk to the pools and back. Room is clean, wifi's good. Enough space to park directly outside of the room. We've also stayed at the Hilton next door which has a fab pool. This is a great alternative if you want to save a it of cash.

Cabin was very cramped and in need of an update. Bedding looked like it was from the 80s. Sleeps 4 but only has seating for 2. Shower cubicle so small, we weren’t able to shower our small children.

Even with discount for staying there, access to the hot pools was going to cost our small family over $50 - we didn’t bother as pools only open for a few more hours so not worth it.

The cabin was clean and facilities at the campground great. Kids loved the bouncing pad and playground.

Location was great as this was a stop over on our longer road trip, good to be able to get off and on the bypass easily without needing to go into town

So upon arrival to Cabin 12 we were greeted with what looked like a well presented cabin. When inside we notice that a screw is poking out of the drawers ( the sharp end). We had children with us so we had to try and take the screw out to prevent anyone getting scratched.
The door to the main bedroom was missing and instead there was a raised piece of broken plastic on the floor which had to be avoided.

We noticed at this point a couple of cockroaches, which we thought was normal for a campsite as we have come across some on our travels.
So we proceeded to enjoy the pool activities which we had a fantastic time in the pool area.

Back to the cabin we encountered another couple of cockroaches but again tried not to let it get in the way.
Until later in the evening it got worse..... Alot worse. As soon as the sun went down it was like they came out with vengeance. Now we've stayed in a lot of places and come across the odd one here and there but this cabin had loads. They were running up on the chairs we were sitting on. Running on the fridge, the counter tops. On the walls of where the bunk beds are.

At this point the reception was closed so we called out of hours. Granted due to the time it was, there wasn't alot that could be done. Or could there? surely there should be some sort of contingency for properties where an issue arises. We were handed a spray (which I wasn't going to use with children in the cabin). This looks like an infestation not the odd one.

We stay in a cabin which supplied 3 cups, 3 drinking glasses, 3 wine glasses which is great however although there was 3 knives, forks and spoons I just could not get my head around that there were no plates! I asked at the reception and they said because it does not have a kitchenette there is no plates. The shared kitchen had nothing supplied either and I dont recall this was mentioned anywhere when I booked.

Super convenient location near hot pools. We booked the cheapest cabin (without bathroom). It was perfectly located between reception and the amenities block, so everything was close. The check in staff was friendly and helpful. The room had a fantastic heat pump that kept the room lovely and warm on a cold night. The curtains blocked out the light really well.

The only the negative - and the reason I won’t stay again - is because this room had zero sound proofing with the adjoining unit. We could hear word-for-word our neighbour’s phone conversation and TV when we went to bed, and were woken at 5.45am when she spent an hour thudding about 3,000 steps around the room, opening and shutting drawers and doors. Even our drink bottle sitting on the table was rattling when she walked around. I’m a light sleeper and I needed a decent sleep before doing a 3 hour drive, so the lack of soundproofing ruined an otherwise great stay.
