We enjoyed a lovely ground-floor room with stunning views of Lake Taupo. The staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly, and our room was wonderful, featuring an incredibly comfy bed that made our stay even more enjoyable. The heated pool was great; all in all, we had a lovely stay.

The location with the waterfront views was stunning, amazing sunset! The size of the room was perfect. Staff were incredibly helpful and accomodating, not to be faulted. In room dining options were not good. Go out somewhere else for dinner.

Wonderful location with a beautiful view of the lake. We had dinner in our room and the room service was very prompt and the food was good. We could have had a meal in the restaurant but it was so nice to be in our room and listen to the waves and birds - plus an amazing sunset. Slept listening to the waves lapping on the shore- sheer bliss.

Spent three nights in a junior king suite. Lovely room with a huge comfortable bed, large bathroom with spa bath. Balcony overlooking the lake as I think all rooms at this hotel do. Staff on reception and bar and restaurant very efficient and helpful. Would definitely stay here again should we visit Taupau in the future.
