Hotels With parking in Waikato, New Zealand

This hotel is located near Lake Taupo, offering distant views of the lake. It's also conveniently close to the famous 'plane' McDonald's in town. It's a resort-style hotel with both paid and free parking areas. The single beds, at 0.9 meters wide, are a bit small, but the room itself is quite spacious. I was particularly pleased with the bathroom, which had two sinks, a bathtub, and a shower. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious. The maple leaves outside the hotel were beautiful, and I even saw a rainbow 🌈.

The room was clean and looked exactly like the pictures. The staff were friendly and always willing to help. There wasn't a lot of parking, but the bathroom and room were both very clean. It's close to tourist attractions and very convenient for getting around.

Novotel Hamilton's location by the lake is great. The hotel service is excellent; the staff even advised us to park at the free lakeside spots early to save on the daily NZD 40 parking fee. The room was very clean, and the facilities were comprehensive. The breakfast was incredibly rich and varied. I highly recommend staying here.

This hotel was wonderful. It was located on the lake and had amazing views to wake up too. The hotel is very family friendly and includes a heated pool and tennis court. I enjoyed going for a morning walk along the lake too. It was a large apartment and the staff were accommodating too. I would definitely stay here again.

We loved the room which came with a balcony overlooking the beautiful lake Taupo. The grotto and the heated pool were amazing and provided us with a very relaxing stay.

We had a wonderful, quiet & undisturbed stay at the Anglers Lodge. The place is tranquil and was not crowded, so we really enjoyed the spacious grounds of the Lodge. The communal kitchen and bathroom facilities were super clean. Overall very well maintained. The pool and games room were much fun for the children. We did fishing at the bay right outside the Lodge. There is minimum 15-20min drive out from the Lodge to Coromandel and the Peninsula.

Wow! We go upgraded to two bedroom apartment which was really handy since it has washer/dryer plus air conditioning in both bedrooms and open plan living area. Very clean and modern apartment with good appliances (Bosch cooktop, oven, dishwasher, washer and dryer). The apartment is sound proofed. They also have 4 varieties of Zealong Tea Estate teas along with the Zealong cups plus coffee pods. The hotel is next to the lake and shops so it’s quite convenient. My only issue is that outside of night time sleeping hours, the air conditioner would turn off by itself after a few minutes. Other than that, I really enjoyed staying at this hotel and would recommend it to others.

I spent a night at Adventure Taupō Hostel and I can say it's one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. The place is brand new, and it shows everywhere: everything is ultra-modern, spotless, and perfectly maintained. The welcome was excellent, with very friendly, smiling staff who were always ready to help. The kitchen is simply exceptional. It's probably the best-equipped backpacker kitchen I've ever seen: very clean, huge, with tons of storage space and all the necessary equipment. The common room is also very pleasant, perfect for meeting and chatting with other travelers. The rooms are modern and very well designed, with USB-C ports readily available for charging devices, a much-appreciated detail. Frankly, it's flawless. For the price, it's hard to beat. I 100% recommend this hostel to anyone passing through Taupō.

It's a small resort with a nice environment. The only downside is that there's no elevator for the second-floor rooms, so you have to carry your luggage up. On the bright side, the second floor offers a great view of the snow-capped mountains. There aren't many supermarkets nearby, so you'll need to go to the city for groceries. However, there's a pretty good restaurant just across the street. Overall, I highly recommend it; it's clean and hygienic, which is a big plus.

We stayed one night en route to Hobbiton and liked it so much that we stayed another 2 later in our trip. Great location, and Cambridge is a relatively easy base to get to other places from. Beautiful decor throughout, nice finishings and really peaceful. It was very busy during our stay (around Christmas/NY) so a little wait for food/drinks but that’s to be expected. We had positive interactions with all hotel and restaurant staff. My only feedback is that the switches in the rooms have blue lights on them, which, for people that like a black-out room, can disrupt sleep. Hopefully an easy fix!
