Lovely place to stay
Check in was very smooth. We were showed to our room by a very friendly host. Our room was clean, tidy and had everything that we needed for our 1 night stay. Plenty of places to eat within a reasonable walking distance or short drive. Would return if we ever came back to this area.

Lake Motel was awesome — tons of space, less than 5 minute drive to downtown Taupo, and the owner was super kind and helped us out with our laundry. We would stay again in a heartbeat.

The Lake Hotel was very cute and comfortable. Wish we had stayed here more than 1 night just because it was so cute! Host steered us to a delicious dinner at the Mole and Chicken and we overall really enjoyed our stay.

Such a lovely spot! We really enjoyed our stay. Wonderful location.
Jennifer, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Adequate but not great value.
This a small motel a few blocks back from the lakefront. Our room was a separate "cabin" in the rear garden. It was very clean and well presented with basic amenities. The " kitchen" was a small fridge and microwave in a cupboard. The bathroom was spacious and well appointed. The bedroom/ livingroom was quite cramped although adequate. I thought this was not very good value compared with other motels in Taupo in the same price bracket.
