Great little motel on the lake front. Excellent location, short walk to the main town center/bars/restaurants. Easy quick check in, staff very pleasant, and we received a free upgrade to a lakeview room which was much appreciated (would be worth paying for it next time!). Rooms are clean, tidy, and have everything you need. Small kitchenette with coffee/tea provided. Some parts a little bit dated but nothing of concern. Elevator is old school, and starts and ends with a big BUMP which our 5 year old boy thought was hilarious, as good as a roller coaster!

As the motel is on the front of the lake you do hear traffic from the busy road going past. Would suggest if noise bothers you to bring some ear plugs.

Just the feeling of being in taupo, was AMAZING!! I loved our lake view from our room. It was just so beautiful!! Everything in our room was Very Good! Nice, comfy and clean! The Reception Lady(I forgot to get her name) but she was AMAZING! and so beautiful! So we originally got the street view room when we first booked but when we arrived and I went to check in she had upgraded Me and My Little family to a lake view room for no Extra Charge!! And the room was so Beautiful 😍 Taupo is a beautiful place!! We will deffinetly be back! Thankyou for serving us well while we stayed was MEKE! 😍👌

Location. Cleanliness of the room. Spaciousness. Well equipped kitchenette. Had a lift and the stairwell wasn't too steep if you weren't able to take the lift (my sister suffers vertigo). Nice seating area outside room. Fabulous view of the lake. Able to park the car close to room.

The lift was quite bumpy and scary, however, we were warned about it. Concerned if we weren't able to get a carpark close to our room. No door between bedroom and bathroom, an issue when sharing with another person - we managed it though.

The motel is right on the lakefront, and I had paid for a lake view which was magnificent. We were on the 4th floor, and did not notice much road noise at all. Is within walking distance of the town for food etc, and there is a restaurant next door as well. The room was very clean and comfortable, and the air conditioning worked extremely well, there is also electric blankets on the beds if you visit in the winter.

Nothing really, the lift was a bit clunkey but we were warned about that and it was better than using the stairs.

First impression was a room upgrade to a lake view & it was stunning. Big room, comfy lounge, always clean & cleaned daily. Great little kitchen area, Bedroom was comfy with another amazing view of the lake. Lift upto my 4th floor. Heater was appreciated as the nights got cooler. Only a 10min walk to town & a pub/restaurant 50m away. Would definitely stay again & highly recommended.

The only minor problem I found was the shower was abit weak. That's just my personal preference & definitely not a deal breaker

Good price/quality value. Amazing location, 15' walk from restaurants/shops and immediately in front of the lake. Staff was nice and helpful. We got lucky because they gave us a free upgrade to a lakeview room, a very kind gesture that was immensely appreciated and shows they know how to take care of guests. Room well equipped with fan, heater, mini-fridge and basic but solid kitchen supplies. No complaints.

We had a good stay, so I can't really say too much. Some people might prefer to be immediately in town or closer to the i-site, but the 10-15 minute walk is really easy. Great place!

Located right in front of Lake Taupo, you can enjoy morning walks there and also view from the room. Beds are comfortable and the room is big enough too.

The beds are placed in two separate rooms, and it is a bit weird to have the rooms connected by bathroom at the centre. We need to ensure there is no one in the bathroom before crossing to the other room. This is a just a minor concern for us, but overall we had a good stay.

Great value for the money and a superb place to stay on the fringes of a vibrant Taupo. A quiet neighbourhood in easy reach of the CBD and other food shops.

We were interested in the common room and bar, but it didn't seem all that inviting. We are an older couple and not into vigorous activities. A chill-out for a week before returning to work was our aim.

I like that it wasn’t to far or to close to town. The lake is straight across the road if u want to go for a swim also. Our room was spacious, very clean and tidy. Beds were very comfortable because I slept in to almost 10am checkout time. No outside noise coming in keeping me awake either so was nice and peaceful

The stairs are abit dated and feel abit dodgy but they’re not they’re just old.

Booked at late notice, apon arrival reception gave a free room upgrade from roadside view to lakeside view. Lady at reception was very friendly and eager to know a little about why your in Taupo which is also nice. The location is a short 2 minute drive from the town center and a mere 10 meters from the lakeside. There is parking on site which is out of view of the public which was a nice security when travelling with a classic car. Couldn't fault this place at all, photo attached is from the bedroom window.
