We were upgraded to a junior suite, but the room decor significantly lacked character. Lots of empty-waisted space made the room seem bare and uncared. Facilities and the rest of the hotel looked very nice

Overall a lovely place to stay but not without some issues. We booked a junior suite which was very spacious but had a small bathroom which was a bit disappointing compared to the size of the other spaces. There is a great text service which goes straight to reception and they get back immediately and answered our questions or brought us what we needed. Fridge is a good size and both kettle and coffee machine with tea, coffee, hot chocolate, sugar and fresh milk sachets in fridge. Sadly our TV did not work properly and we could not access the guest info but reception sent through the room service menu to our room instead. Breakfast is good and has lots of choice, plus you could also order off a menu. The wait is quite long for this service but delicious once it arrived. We stayed for 3 nights and every morning at 9.59am we were reminded that breakfast was finishing and we all felt they were trying to rush us out even though they only brought our ordered food at 9.50am one morning having waited 25 mins. They ran out of English Breakfast tea in the restaurant and the next morning said they still did not have any as the delivery was later that day, poor planning. The pool and spa pool are wonderful. Excellent for both adults and children. Very well kept and clean, lots of staff around tending to the garden and all very friendly. Room service was excellent but sadly the restaurant was not. Very long wait and overall food looks good but was quite bland. Nice hotel but not 5 star!

We have stayed at this Hilton several times as our go to in Taupo and this experience was disappointing. Whomever is managing the property is letting it down we think. Check in not till 4pm, still servicing our room at 6.45pm the following night, we had had a long day and just wanted to relax, overcharged for parking initially, decor in rooms is tired and needs updating. For the price this hotel charges it needs to invest in the experience. Still has comfortable beds which is a plus. We will be trying somewhere else next time.

Our room had seen better days. There were numerous scratches, dents, marks on the walls. The room was very large but had very little furniture which was in poor condition. There was no shelving or drawersfor clothes. The common area to elevator was also in less than ideal condition. It would have been nice if there was somewhere to purchase snacks in the hotel as it was not near any shops.
