Huka Lodge

Huka Lodge

Wairakei|1.69km from Craters of the Moon
Stayed 2 nights here over Labour weekend. Has been on our list for a long time, and the opportunity arose when the Border closure meant access for Kiwi's was a little easier. A sensational 2 days fro the moment we arrived. Have never experienced service like it. The Lodge was full for the weekend...full of a wide range of NZérs enjoying their own backyard, and it was great to chat in the Lounge around the fire after what were 2 nights of amazing culinary excellence. Cottages are awesome, right on the river, and we've never heard the ”Birdsong”like it at sunrise each morning. There were so many extra touches, each one shows why they are consistently in the Top 10 Lodges in the World. Wow...we need to get back there

Wairakei Resort Taupo

Wairakei|2.4km from Craters of the Moon
We enjoyed our stay at Wairaki resorts, especially the swimming in the huge inviting pools heated thermally. One can take a short walk from the lower pool along a steaming hot creek that feeds the pools. Don't miss it. Our room was plainly furnished but very comfortable and well laid out. Fine sleeping in this quiet peaceful setting with only a lovely array of bird calls. The menu was a bit limited, but the meals were very good, and we particularly enjoyed the excellent and extensive breakfast buffet. The staff were very friendly and helpful. One can rent bikes, and I loved my hilly ride to a marvelous waterfall while my husband golfed at the beautifully laid out course next door.

Was travelling in New Zealand when I was forced to isolate and this location after contracting Covid (it's still out there folks!). Francis & Grant the managers ... in fact the entire team ... took my predicament in their stride, were sympathetic and helpful. My apartment was spacious and confortable with everything I need for the isolation period. Lovely location on the front at Taupo although it's still a fair walk to the centre (there is a pub / restaurant next door that alas I could not try!). Nice looking pool and Spa. I recommend going for a first floor apartment if you can so that your views are not obscured by parked cars, though be prepared to carry cases etc steps. Grounds well-kept with a nice area for a bbq. Very impressed - would not hesitate to stay again!

Ashbrook Motel Taupo

Ashbrook Motel Taupo

4.6/545 Reviews
This is a great place to stay. Excellent facilities. Very clean and tidy. Friendly reception staff. Good quality furnishings. A little pricey but worth it for the quality of the room. Four of us stayed and there was a separate bedroom with a TV. Loved the fact there was actually a bath as well as a shower.

Really decent motel accommodation. Rooms are really spacious and tasteful. Guy at reception was really friendly. Room had a Spa Bath, Sky TV and a decent Kitchenette. There was also a small outdoor patio which is quite private. A few small gripes. The Bed was dreadful. So uncomfortable. This might be a matter of opinion, but there are a few proceeding reviews which also mention this. The water pressure is poor. Takes 25mins to fill the Spa Bath. Shower is also pretty poor. There are car parks outside the units, but the allocated one to your unit, may not necessarily be the one directly outside of it. Mine was tucked around the corner, where the car park directly outside my unit was occupied by a family who made a heck of a lot of noise loading their car and kids from 5am-5.30am. Not ideal at all. Also note the car park area is pretty tight. All in all a decent stay here at Ascot Taupo. Got a really really decent last minute price, which meant the little niggles were not that dramatic. Certainly if the price was higher, I would take it all into consideration.

There are some car hotels, right next to Lake Taupo, the scenery does not say, the car stops at the door of the room, very convenient, very suitable for self-driving travel. The rooms are compact but well-equipped, cooking and bathing are not a problem. It is very close to the supermarket and the place to eat, and there are two or three intersections by car. The New Zealand big sister at the front desk was very enthusiastic and stayed with milk.
