Such a great place to stay, great location not far from the lake and clean motel to stayed. We stayed here for 1 night it was convenient but the bed quite small and so bright light up the ceiling as a blue color it was quite interrupted during sleeping at night.

A very pleasant place to stay for a few nights. The hosts are friendly and welcoming, and went out of their way to be helpful. It is about one kilometre from the waterfront if you walk straight down, bit closer to town if you cut across. Tea/coffee/sugar all updated daily. Quiet and extremely clean, with seats outside the front and back of the unit.

This is a great place to stay. Excellent facilities. Very clean and tidy. Friendly reception staff. Good quality furnishings. A little pricey but worth it for the quality of the room. Four of us stayed and there was a separate bedroom with a TV. Loved the fact there was actually a bath as well as a shower.

Spent 6 nights here and spent time in the Taupo and Rotorua areas. Motel is in a very good location for a short walk to the town centre. Facilities were excellent and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. They were always happy to help with any queries. I would definitely stay here again.

After having to cancel our stay in Napier due to the cyclone, we had to quickly find somewhere else to go. Taupo looked good and Ashbrook Motel was available. What a find! Maggie was so warm and welcoming and even suggested we check out a different room from what I had booked. Room 14 is one of 3 rooms on the upper level and has a spa tub. Upgrade in my mind but Maggie said it was actually less money. Such a spacious room with queen sized bed and separate bedroom with 2 twins. Super comfortable sitting room chairs, 2 televisions, A/C, great kitchenette with everything you need to prepare small meals, tea and coffee. Large bathroom with shower, spa tub, manuka honey toiletries, thick towels. Immaculately clean throughout. Each room has a table and chairs for sitting outside. There’s plenty of on-site parking and beautiful landscaping. The location is in a quiet residential neighbourhood but it’s an easy 15 minute walk to the town centre and restaurants and shops. Thanks Maggie and team for a wonderful stay!…

We found this motel to be incredibly welcoming. We were instantly greeted with a smiley face and a speedy check in. The kind lady behind the counter also helped to provide us with brochures and ideas of how we should spend our time here. The room was very clean and tidy and we were very pleased with the comfort of the beds. The location of the motel is also fairly handy as it’s only a 15 minute walk to town. Overall very pleased with our stay .

Great motel near the city centre. The reception was warm and the room is spacious and clean. We had no issues during our stay. The bed was comfy. Spa bath was a bonus. I suggest they consider offering a charging point for guests EVs in the future.
