The rooms are very simple, small, but have everything you may need. The room was quite cheap too so no complaints. Excellent spot right by the lake with views down to the mountains at the south-west of the lake. Free Wi-Fi, although it cut in and out regularly, still free is free.
The friendly people who run the Motor Inn were always helpful when we asked them queries about Taupo, and even helped us doing our laundry. We had one issue where the leg of our bed broke during the night and they were very quick to move us to a new room (with a better view!) with no hassles.

We had a room which is located behind their cover photo. But we were next to the pool and still had a side view of the Lake. Good sized room, very helpful manager and friendly staff. Queen bed and 2 single beds in another room. Large bathroom.

My partner and I stayed here for one night in early Jan in a studio room. The room was very tidy and clean and had amazing views of the lake and the Tongariro National Park in the background. The staff who greeted us were very friendly and allowed us to leave our car on the premises after checking out so we could grab some lunch. Would definitely stay here again!

Unfortunately I only ended up staying here one night, but the Tui Oaks had a great location ...a short walk from the main downtown area, and right on the lake! I used Taupo as my base for exploring Tongariro National Park. The room was nice, although I only was in the room to sleep ...wish I had spent an extra day or two here!

Stayed here as a stopover heading to Auckland. We were given a room in the top floor which had great views over looking the lake. Very comfortable and spacious rooms although very dated. Free wifi and 50+ channels of Sky TV were much appreciated especially by my 2 sons! Reasonably priced and friendly helpful staff made for an enjoyable stay. A few dollars spent fixing up the decor would rally set if off. Will recommend to others, well done.
