Well located and lovely room.

The room was very comfortable, fresh decor, not at all dated. The location was perfect for walking to shops and food and even down to the boat tours. Would definitely stay again.

Great room with a view of Lake Taupo

Visited Taupo with my wife and two daughters for a short stay in January 2024. We have a smooth check in process and the rooms were clean. There's a full kitchen and fridge which makes things really convenient. We have a room facing the lake with a sitting area on the balcony as well as picnic tables nearby. The hotel is close to restaurants and shops. Wonderful place.
