Fantastic check in, all the staff were very friendly! the beds were extremely comfy and we had a little fridge for our snacks. The pools were great to relax in after the road trip and the sunset was amazing! We also booked dinner at the Hilton which was super yummy! It was such a great trip, and only a 3 min walk into town

Situated in Taupo, 35 km from Orakei Korako Cave and Thermal Park, Grandeur Thermal Spa Resort features accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. The property is located 35 km from Orakei Korako - The Hidden Valley, 800 metres from Taupo Events Centre and 3.3 km from Great Lake Convention Centre. The resort provides garden views, a children's playground, and free WiFi is available.

We had a wonderful experience at this accommodation! It's a shame we only stayed for one night. The spaces were spacious and communication with the hotel was pleasant, especially since we needed to change our booking last minute, and everything went perfectly.

Looking for a motel?

Both travellers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help to make check-in quick and easy.

    I've stayed at Taupō Debretts Spa Resort before and it consistently impresses. The WiFi is available and stable across the property, which is a huge plus. The rooms are designed like individual villas, providing the comfort and space of a whole house. Additionally, we received a 50% discount on the Hotpools as guests, which was fantastic. I also appreciate the heated floors, which keep the room cozy and warm during cold weather. Highly recommend!

    Room was large and spacious. Nice to have a good sized kitchen area and lounge. Love having a washing machine in the room. View of the mountains and slight view of the lake from our room and from the main bedroom was amazing! Easy access to Debretts Spa Resort,though take note there is an extra fee for the pools. Discount available for guests. The pools are a highlight!

    Location, kitchenette in the room, facilities in the spa resort. Room description says with lake view but from our room you won't really see the lake. Trees are blocking it.

    The two bedroom unit was spacious and had floor heating! whilst it is called Spa Resort it wasn’t what we expected and it was more like a Big 4 in Australia. Has good but communal laundry facility at additional cost.
