    The local buses need to run later into the nighttime.

    The local buses need to run later into the nighttime. Restaurant and Fast Food place sort of central in about 4 blocks. Huka Falls Jet and Rapid Jet need to consider a shuttle service from downtown Taupo because it is dare for a Uber ride and even darer for a Taxi. My favourite place to eat was Portofino Taupo, their service was exceptional.

    A fabulous place to stay and explore we did a cruise on Lake Taupo I highly recommend on the Ernest Kemp .We visited the Huka falls which was an amazing experience. Taupo is easy to get around walking or driving and there’s lots of great shopping. We ate at a waterfront restaurant “ Lone Star “which have specials at lunchtime ,steak was awesome. We enjoyed “ Lotus Thai” fabulous food , good service staff very friendly a great night . Lake Taupo is a must see experience 😁

    So many really good restaurants and cafes.

    So many really good restaurants and cafes. Mini Golf and Golf at the main courses are always a must for us and we have visited all courses including the beautiful Wairekei Course many times before. Retailers are always very warm and helpful and good walking paths around the lake. Scenery also really good, especially in the winter months with the snow capped mountains. Locals always say Hi when your'e out walking etc.

    Sailing on the lake is a must do activity but do dress for the occasion. he town has some interesting features and is well worth walking around. Look out for the Superloo and the DC-3 at a well known eatery. Don't miss the wool shop for some great items that are locally made. Search out the Huka Falls and all the volcanic activity above the town. Spend some time exploring the scenery by car or on foot. Learn how to pronounce the name of the town before you leave.

    I'm a bit bias because my parents used to live in Taupo and we spent a lot of time in Taupo. Love Taupo for its vibrant feel, the eateries, the scenery of course the shops and the lake. Everything about Taupo is great. Could live there but we live in Australia.

    We had a family room, which although not what we needed was all that was available with our last minute booking. It had plenty of space for the 2 of us but may have been cramped for a family of 4, but I guess that applies to most motels. Everything was clean and tidy and the room facilities were more than enough for our 3 day stay. Although we were about 2.5km from the centre of Taupo we were only about 100m from the lake shore and the walk into Taupo could be easily made using the walkway along the lake shore. We did it a couple of times.

    Loved our stay at The Hilton Taupo. Our room had an amazing sweeping views across the lake to the mountains. We stayed in a 1bdrm apartment which was the perfect size for our young family of 3. The room was a fantastic size so we could all stay comfortably. The pool and gym is great and very clean, gardens beautifully kept. But the staff are the best thing we think; from front desk to house keeping everyone was very helpful, laid back but attentive, warm, friendly and professional at every exchange. We will def go back.

    Best of best to stay in Taupo. Nearby for everything you need, bars, restaurants, cafes, lake sceneries. The place is very tidy and clean. Feels like you're at home as this place provides very complete kitchenette. The apartment size is big. The bed is very comfy. We have very good sleep. The indoor pool and jacuzzi are very clean and we enjoyed using them. You will have very good time when stay in this apartment hotel and worth for the money.

    I love Taupõ and usually stay on the lake front, but was pleased with the grandeur. It was warm, clean and easily accessible. Although the studios were close to each other, and each was occupied, it was silent. Couldn't hear a peep outside, nor from neighbours. My 75yr old mother was warm and comfy, so i was happy. Its not flash, but decent, and good value for money. I would definitely stay there again.

    Honestly, this was definitely one of the best motels I’ve stayed in. The motel was right in front of Lake Taupo and it made me feel so refreshed. The staff were just so polite and friendly, they greeted me every morning I would see them. The location is amazing because it’s near restaurants and shops, you could even walk there. I definitely recommend this motel for those coming to Taupo, so comfy!

    Good location by the lake (not lake front, but few steps away). Few minutes drive to the LoveTaupo signage and town center. Excellent staff offering lots of useful info. Parking right at the door step of the apartment. For the room we stayed in, king bed on the ground level, 3 single twin-size bed on the 2nd floor loft. Two bathrooms.

    The unit which we stayed had a beautiful view facing the lake Taupo.The motel was very close to the restaurants like KFC, Mc Donalds, Subway, Dominos etc., and the lake was just opposite to the room. The rooms were very clean and equipped with a full kitchen for a family stay. Awesome customer service by Loretta.

    Great view of the lake, warm, quiet room, and lots of recommendations on local eateries and bars etc. Great to be able to bring Pixie along as well. Pixie is our little white maltese dog. She was very respectful and comfortable as well. Will be back again and have recommended your hotel to family and friends

    The location was perfect. It was walking distance to numerous restaurants and to the lake front which was beautiful! The towels were the softest of any hotel in NZ. Oh, and the on-site washer and dryer were a bonus. But, I’d say the staff made it a wonderful experience.

    There was nothing much to like about this Motel. It was near the shore of Lake Taupo but that was it. The restaurant next door was good but pricey.
