We brought 45 people here for two nights in late Feb 2022. We did the rounds and looked at other places but Manager Peter could not have been more welcoming and it was this personal service that sold us, along with the really nice and spacious rooms. We were able to entertain our group nightly, and enjoy breakfasts together, in the conference room . It might look a bit austere from the outside but the rooms were lovely and the management could not have been more helpful - we won't even bother looking elsewhere. Andrew London - Notable Tours.

Nice central place a quick walk to town and a stroll along the lake front home. We had a room with the balcony overlooking the lake. The sunsets were amazing. Beds comfy nice and quiet room with everything you need and a big spa bath. This place is wonderful and the heated pool and spa is a bonus.

We stayed here for a girls weekend in 2 x 2 bedroom apartments. The place was brilliant, very clean and with every need catered for. Away from the main road but within walking distance of everything. Would highly recommend staying here if you are in the area, I know we all certainly will be.

Tidy and spacious rooms with fully equipped kitchenette and private balconies, central location great for local shops and restaurants, a heated pool and spa which were a treat in winter, and friendly staff who were very accommodating and can't be faulted on their service.

We loved this place when we last stayed (January 2019) so of course stayed again on our next visit to Taupo. It didn't disappoint. The spa bath is certainly the main attraction but it also offers friendly service, close to lake, easy walk to restaurants / shops. Large and clean room with lovely balcony that catches the sun (if it is out). We will be back. Thanks.
