Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Can't beat the location, the surroundings, the nice tidy space. One minute walk to the river, can jump on a trail that goes all the way to the big park nearby. Or just a few minutes' drive to the city centre. Next time I'm in Taupo I'll be looking to stay here!

Positioned a stone's throw from Taupo CBD and all its restaurants/bars/cafés, and nice and close to all the fun and activities Wairakei has to offer, while still being nice and peaceful.

Beatifully presented and tidy property, everything you could need for a really comfortable stay, especially the fireplace for those cold evenings/nights. Highly recommended.

Riverview is a beautiful place for a holiday, with wonderful hosts and every comfort you could need. Plus an easy walk into town. I will certainly be going back to stay on my next trip to New Zealand.

A lovely, quiet spot by the river. Very clean & tidy, with everything you may need. The location was very peaceful, but still convenient for Taupo town centre. The hosts, Lance & Sandra, were lovely and very helpful. Overall, it was a great stay. Would recommend.
