Beechtree Motel

8/10 Good

"Everything you need, nice spa bath Nicely presented, parking right by room Warm Heatpump and outside patio sitting area private Lovely little stay Quiet Close to town etc"

Lake Taupo Motor Inn

8/10 Good

"The room was pretty cold, which would’ve been great in summer, but even with the heater running, it felt a little too chilly, especially since we stayed for a night at the tail end of winter. There’s plenty of parking, and the place boasts a gorgeous view of the snow-covered mountains with a peek at the Taupo River."

Lakeland Resort Taupo

8/10 Good

"Not much positive things to say apart from pool, parking, and lake view. Room decir disappointing certainly requires overall upgrade internal and external"
