Comfortable, clean and reasonably priced motel unit in a central location, close to the shopping centre and a short walk to the lake. Nice manager.

Lovely boutique motel, we had our own little detached room at the back of motel, it was a comfortable twin room, nice and cosy. A short walk to the lake & not far to walk into town. It's great that the motel is also pet friendly. Would stay here again.

Excellent little motel, great value! Rooms very clean, tidy, and spacious, older but well-maintained. We really enjoyed using the loaner bikes for free. This isn't a sparkling new luxury hotel, but is a very comfortable place that is highly recommended, especially for the price! I definitely plan to return if we find ourselves back in Lake Taupo.

A very relaxing and comfortable overnight stay with a fridge to keep our food and drinks in and mini kitchen for preparing our own breakfast with coffee plunger for making that special brew. We would definitely stay here again.

We were there for an overnight stay so didn't use all the facilities. Roomy bathroom, small kitchenette where you could cook a modest meal or microwave them. Big comfy beds, we had a twin bedroom. Pool available. We sat by the pool for a glass of wine, lovely spot, too cold for us to swim though, weather wise.
