Detailed Reviews
Very nice accommodation, booked a 1 bedroom spa bath unit, checked in and entered room to find a studio, went back to office to question the room and was told that the price of a 1 bedroom was more expensive than what I paid for. ( I did book online directly with motel) but I guess it was a long weekend and they could up the price to make more money. After a while of seeing who she could move rooms we where given a 2 bedroom no spa bath unit ( as long as we didn’t use the 2 room).
Room was brand new, very roomy and comfortable. I closed the door on the 2nd bedroom and never entered it so I can not comment on that room.
Did mention to owner to call carpet layers back as edging nails sticking out and sharp to stand on, she arrived at room with a steak tenderiser to hit them down, which did not work.
Only a couple of extras needed to make the unit better, could do with a tv in main bedroom and a extra mirror, only 1 of each in unit.
Handy to town, walking distance to shops and restaurants.
Would I book here again : yes but I will be making sure I get the room I booked.

The motel had everything we needed for our three week stay. The fully equipped kitchen made it possible to prepare meals and we were able to use a washing machine and dryer at the motel. The units are new, clean and tidy and the daily room service is good. Our one bedroom unit was nice and spacious with an amazing bath. The location is perfect too with just a short walk to town. Thanks very much for everything team!

My wife and I enjoyed a weekend break at Acacia Lake View and can recommend this newly refurbished motel as a cut above the rest. If, like me you must have a view, the upstairs lake view studio room is the one to choose (unit 11 or 12). Spacious, with a balcony overlooking the lakefront, and nicely furnished, these units are certainly smarter than other motel rooms on offer in Taupo. Such a pleasant room and walking distance to town makes for a lovely stay.

We just drove by on a road trip and stopped in, we were immediately greeted by the owners who were lovely people and were happy to show us the room before we decided to stay. We were given a great price on the room and made to feel welcome. Down to earth people and happy to accommodate with our baby.
Great location , right on the lake and close to town yet nice and quiet.
Our room had just been refurbished and was spacious and clean, big bed and nice new bathroom.
We normally try different hotels every time we go through Taupo but will make an effort to return to Acacia on our next trip.

We have just spent three unforgettable nights at Acacia View. We were lucky enough to book a Superior Lake View Studio upstairs with a direct view across the Lake Taupo to the volcanoes. The accomodation certainly won't disappoint, spotlessly clean with all the amenities you would need. Having the choice to have a nice wine either on the balcony or in the room behind glass was lovely. Being 300 metres from the town centre is it a bonus. Christine couldn't have been more hospitable thank you very much.

What a great place to stay. This motel is really conveniently located. Opposite the whole in one golf place, easy walking distance to the township and restaurants. Our room was lovely and so clean. The bed was really comfortable to sleep in. The shower had great water pressure. The owner was very welcoming and very helpful. We only stayed one night. It met all of our expectations for the price we paid.

From arrival to leaving, between contact with hubby and myself, this was a perfect stay. The lady host was super friendly, accommodating, professional and helpful to guide us to the local market which was amazing! The kitchen facilities were small but we were not expecting any, so it was a bonus and suited our small dinner cooking. The bathroom was huge, the shower pressure really good, the cleaning products eco which is excellent. The bed was not overly comfy but every person sleeps different so I haven't rated lower for that reason. The location is close to everything - town, lake and Sunday market. I highly recommend this place and would readily book again. Thank you!

Room Tip: Obviously the lake view would be best, but our side room was fine - it was only for sleeping.

We arrived in the evening - very friendly from the start and had put our lights and heat pump on ready for us. The room was clean, well laid out, large bathroom, comfy king bed (we had the Deluxe Studio Suite, courtyard view, executive level).
Good hangers for our clothes, suitcase bench, table and well equipped kitchen. The shower cubicle was large with great shower pressure, supplied toiletries, good size towels etc.
A bit disappointed in the sign on the wall saying we would be charged $10 per day for not doing our own dishes. I find this bad business and bad hygiene - we pay for the room and always in the past this included dishes. I've been a motel cleaner years ago and even if the guests did their own dishes, it was seldom up to a standard to pass on to the next guest. I hate to think that when we are new guests that we have to trust the previous ones did a good job or just slap dash to avoid the $10. Guests should not have to do dishes unless they want to - and most times we want to and do, but object to being threatened with a high fee if not done. It's not a camping ground cabin, it's a motel. For good hygiene, the cleaners should do this so they can be accountable if not done properly for next guests.

We stayed for two days at Acacia Lakeview Motel and really enjoyed our room - very modern and stylish motel rooms with a beautiful and comfortable bed. A short walk to all of the restaurants and cafes along the lakefront at Taupo.
We sat on the deck and watched so many people have a hit to win $10,000 at the hole in one golf pad on the lakefront. We were going to have a try - but we’re enjoying our afternoon cocktails too much lol.

My husband and I travel a lot for business and stayed one night here and found it to be one of the best we’ve stayed in. The lady on reception was very welcoming and helpful, and offered to show us the room before committing. We would highly recommend this very pleasant motel.
