Traveling to New Zealand? Find Taupo hotels

I really loved this hostel. It's brand new and everything is really high quality. The kitchen is so big and fully stocked, the lounge is great, there's a hot tub, outdoor areas, great view, and is just a few minutes' walk to the lake and to the town center. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Actually, I checked out of my room at the required time of 10am, but was leaving Taupo on the bus at 1:30am. The staff were nice enough to keep my bag in reception till 8pm, when they closed. I got my bags but just hung out on their comfy sofas in the lounge, watching tv and using their fast, free wifi until midnight, when the lounge closed. This was way above and beyond what I expected! Oh, and my room, a private with ensuite bathroom, was impeccably clean, new, and had a tv. The other guests were very respectful and stuck to the quiet hours so I had a great time and definitely highly recommend!

Pros: everything mentioned in title and it's clean too, huge kitchen with cooking, storing and heating facilities. Big backyard to chill or hang clothes. Towel hire $2 so worth it, big water absorbing towel!! Pretty much facing Lake Taupo and Thea and the other male receptionist were extremely nice, friendly and answers all questions although special note to male receptionist-no the alpine crossing is defo not easy esp in winter, be prepared before you go, haha Cons: Mattress very very noisy, springy and uncomfortable (this was a big problem for me and everyone in the room) AND 4 plug points in the room to 7 beds (wasn't a major problem for me but one chick found it annoying) Thanks Tiki for your kind hospitality!

I stayed in a small cabin. Single bed with thin duvet/single pillow. Was comfortable enough. It had a TV (only 2 channels), a fridge, and (new) microwave. Toilet and wash facilities were 20 meters away in shared facility. Plenty of hot water. Also had access to a shared kitchen. Both room and toilet block could do with a makeover. Kitchen was again basic, but sufficient to cook and clean up in. spoke to some other travellers and they thought it compare reasonably well to other places they had stayed in around NZ at same price range. Owner was friendly and obliging when I asked to borrow a can opener. Situated in what appeared to be a lower socio area of town. Approx 1.5 kms from main town area.

This is the best affordable hotel we stay for 16 days in New Zealand. It's locate in quiet area yet near to the town, lake and Huka Falls with breath taking view. The hotel is super clean, equip with coffee making facilities, iron, microwave, balcony and private car park. The bathroom is huge, clean and with modern design. Guest also get a complimentary internet access. I really recommend this resort for north Island visit/holiday.

Booked for a standard cabin with ensuite and expected an oldish cabin but we actually got a 2 bedroom cabin with ensuite and it was modern and very clean. Had everything we needed and the cabins were really warm. Definitely kept us warm in a very cold weather. Had enough space for my 15 mnth old bub to walk around while inside. And the cabin we were staying also overlooking lake taupo. Staff were friendly and never had issues.

For the price we paid we're pretty sure we got one of the best views/stays at a hotel in Taupo that we've had thus far (and we come here often). The bed was comfortable, the TV worked well, the internet was great, and the takeaways from the restaurant were amazing. I don't know why'd you pay double or more for anything else when you'd get exactly the same. This place is a bargain. There's also a pool and spa (which we didn't use) that were in great condition. The staff were incredibly nice and helpful and overall our stay was great. Would highly recommend if you're looking for somewhere to stay!

I enjoyed my stay at the Dunrovin Motel in Taupo. Everything was as it should be. The unit I had booked was clean and spacious. The bed was particularly comfortable, as the matress was bit firmer than the usual very soft NZ beds. -- The motel is located close to the city centre, and only a few minutes' drive from the Huka Falls and associated activities & sights. -- The owner of the motel gave me helpful directions to sights in the area.

I stayed 3 nights at Bella Vista Motel during my stay at Taupo. I reached to the hotel very late and the front desk was already closed. However, I was pretty happy with how they leave the note for me. The put the note at front desk door with my name and studio unit number. They even remembered to leave the wifi password.The unit is pretty spacious, lovely and cozy. The hotel room has a nice little kitchenette and microwave.The bed was very comfortable. We had a very good rest after long day of a bus ride from Auckland. The unit is pretty clean and thanks to the housekeeping team. The hotel has few parking spaces. The hotel is located at very convenient area which is pretty close to the shops and restaurants. Most of them are within walking distance. I had very pleasant stay at Bella Vista and I would stay again at Bella if I have a chance to visit Taupo. I would definitely recommend this motel to everyone.

Had flown back from Australia to celebrate our sons 1st birthday in taupo and had booked 4 rooms for all our close family members to stay in with us for the night & it was the absolute best. Staff were so amazing & so understanding as we couldnt check out on time due to food preparations taking abit longer than we thought but told us to take as much time as we needed at no extra charge. You dont get that often & would definitely be back aswell as all our family members we took. Thank you so much for the hospitality & hopefully be back again soon.

We booked this venue for my family's recent trip to Taupo and it was the one of the best equipped accommodation from our trip. My wife personally felt that the venue is really thoughtful with the various items provided. The receptionist was courteous and helpful. Family also spent time at the spa bath - a good plus. It is a short drive away from the eateries and thus, we do appreciate the quiet surroundings and there is an English bar just down the road. Within a short walk, we are at Lake Taupo where we witnessed some lovely sunsets. It is also close to the jetty and also the supermarket, making this a wonderful stay for my family with young kids. highly recommended.

we been travelling from Auckland to Taupo and arrived there quite late evening and we doesn't got any booking for the room yet so we search agoda and found Adelphi motel offer a special rate by agoda with a studio one so we decide to go there but while we contact reception it was a bit confuse with the room rate anyway Wayne motel manager was finally fixed it out how it work. the room is way much better than us expect, clean and comfortable. we will back again next visit

We were very happy with our stay, we had stayed there once before with a group of people and found it as good this time as last time. The bed was a bit hard though. It was clean, warmed up and stayed warm all night. A good variety to choose from from the dinner menu and selection available for the all you could eat breakfast. We are happy stay there again the next time we need a bed in Taupo as it is easy to get to from the new motorway, and being out of town a bit didn't worry us as it was a stop over for us on our way to Wellington.

I enjoyed my stay at Ascot Motor Inn thoroughly and the hospitality provided by Mr Graeme. The room was always a comfort to return to after a day of sightseeing in the Lake Taupo area. Mr Graeme the owner was helpful and I am grateful to him for offering me a ride to the town centre on the day i checked out as it was raining and i was prepared to lug my luggage and take a walk in the rain to the bus stop. I wish Mr Graeme and Ascot Motor Inn all the best for the future and I will definitely book Ascott Motor Inn if I ever visit Lake Taupo again.

Would highly recommend Accent on Taupo - the rooms were sparklingly clean and fitted out with quality furniture and fittings. The self contained kitchen area had everything a traveller could need and the bonus of a small private backyard was a welcome surprise. The staff would lovely, helpful and very approachable (even during one of their busiest weekends). Of course the location is superb, across the road from the lake and a short taxi ride into the centre of Taupo (or a reasonable 3 km walk along the lake for those so inclined). Thanks Accent on Taupo - I'll definitely be back!

Tony (the owner) was very friendly and welcoming, and he even gave us some milk when we arrived. He also showed us all the places to go in Taupo and booked for us the skydive and everything else. The room is clean and tidy and very cozy, we loved our stay here and if i ever visit taupo again, this is definitely the place i will be staying. Too good!!!!! Thank you very much Tony, and also the other lady who took care of us while Tony was away golfing.

Suncourt is an awesome place to stay at. Its close to everything you want. Their pools are amazing and the room we stayed in was enormous. Most of all restaurant nexts door breakfast was free for kids with a paying adult. I would definitely come back to this hotel when im in Taupo. There's also heaps of carpark for you truckies and big families travelling with alot of cars. So if your in Taupo and looking for a hotel come to this place. You will have a time of your life and they didnt pay me to say that lol.
