Stayed with my Father in a 1 bedroom garden view Suite. Room was very big with 2 beds in the lounge (single) and seperate bedroom. Motel was very impressive with a big TV with chrome cast. Seating outside on deck and unit was very quiet. Absolutely spotless. Will definitely stay again.

The service we received efficient, friendly and helpful. We had a beautiful view of Mt Ruapehu. The bed was comfortable. I think heating in the bathroom would add to the comfort of our experience but overall we were very satisfied with the service and comfort level. It was very conveniently situated in that we could walk into Taupo township with ease.

We spent three nights at this very comfortable hotel in Taupo in early June.

We were visiting our daughter who lives in the town but didn’t have enough room for us to stay. I was after a hotel with a view of the beautiful lake, but still within walking distance to town as we didn’t have a car. Suncourt Hotel fitted the brief perfectly.

We booked a Premier Deluxe Lakeview Studio room. The room that we were allotted was on the top floor. There was no lift, so you needed to climb the outdoor steps with luggage.

Our room was very large, with a king size bed, a desk, two comfortable chairs and a coffee table. The bathroom was huge with a walk-in shower and a free-standing bath. There was also a very large balcony with a stunning view of the lake and a further two chairs and a small table.

The reception staff were very helpful not only with our original reservation, but also when we needed to add a night and with any questions that we had.

The only downside to me was that their restaurant was not open on the evening that we checked in, which was Sunday, and also not for breakfast on the Monday morning. We did know this in advance though, and as the town was easily walkable it wasn’t a problem. We had two breakfasts in the restaurant, and they were excellent. As we had other dinner plans, we didn’t have dinner in the restaurant, but our daughter and her partner have eaten there and loved it.

If you are looking for a very large hotel room with a view, then Suncourt is for you. I believe they have much larger apartment style rooms which would be more suitable for families, although we didn’t get to see any of these.

Great service from checkin to checkout.
Clean, had everything we need. And
Lake Bistro is awesome too.

Power points everywhere you wouldn't have trouble charging multiple devices at once, we haven't been in a hotel with so much power plugs lol!

4 as the bed was too firm for us.

Room tip: No allocated parking for guests, it gets full when the bistro gets busy. Call bistro for opening hours to be sure.
