Lovely to stay in a cottage with humbling history. Comfortable beds, spacious and good bath and bed linen. The sofa is stained so quite off putting to sit on, but we placed a blanket cover over to improve the appearance. Nice to have air conditioner too. Sad the Wi-Fi was so intermittent.

Reasonably priced, a little far from the town centre though and not much around it. Only met one staff member but he was helpful and pleasant. Generally happy with what we got for the price we paid. Taupo itself was great.

Clean, comfortable and convenient

Comfortable three night stay in this motel, with the lake across the road. Small dining table with a couple of easy chairs - needed to sit on the extra cushions to eat at the table. Comfortable, good sized bed. Small kitchenette with fridge-freezer, two ring hob, microwave, toaster and kettle - plus cutlery, crockery and utensils. Small en suite shower/toilet room with heated towel rail - plenty of hot water. The room is fronted by floor to ceiling glass sliding door and windows, so use the curtains for privacy/block out the sun. Room service was sporadic: one day but not another. Designated parking space. A few km from Taupo centre. A clean, comfortable and convenient place to stay.
