Suncourt Hotel & Conference Centre, hotel in Taupo

Suncourt Hotel & Conference Centre offers spectacular views of Lake Taupo and the volcanoes of Tongariro National Park.

Units are a bit dated. They need a freshening up. You pay a high price for the location which is good but the units good have been a lot nicer. Really comfy and roomy bed but we had to pay extra for this - overall worked out very expensive. Drive in entrance cracked and broken could be a problem if walking back to your room at night. Also parking area surface needs attention. We don't feel as if Suncourt put a lot of money into the upkeep of the property.

    We just wanted the best affordable accommodation as we were passing through to spend the day with family then returned again the next night. Loved having a comfortable and spacious hotel type room to relax in after a long drive.

    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 really enjoyed the service of the front desk at the hotel they were very welcoming as we were able to check in earlier than we booked, as well as the location of our room exceeded our expectation of what we'd get, as we were able to have a good view of the lake and the mountains. My family and I also really enjoyed our whole room and how homey it felt, especially how comfortable our beds were. Overall I would say that our stay at the Twin Peaks Inn made our little trip more special and memorable.

    We stayed at many hotels during our tour of New Zealand. Lake Taupo Motor Inn stands out as the best of the best. Why? Because it ticks all the boxes - friendly staff (they let us check-in early - really appreciated this), a quick and stress-free check-in, huge rooms (with a patio!), fantastic location - town center and the lake both a short walk away. Can park right up to your room, makes things much easier with heavy suitcases, And great value for money. It deserves all the stars.

    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.

    The room was generally quiet, although the design of the hotel means that any noise in the corridor will reverberate through the room. The room was large (beds for 3) and was fairly comfortable. Check in was painless. Bathrooms & kitchen were spotlessly clean & there was adequate utensils for preparation of meals. Appreciated the undercover parking & the short walk to the main commercial area of Lake Taupo. A recommended budget stay.

    Perfect hotel, perfect location, perfect view - a lovely lakeside apartment hotel. Attractive landscaping surrounds about 20 rooms in this 2 story complex. Ours was on the second floor with a straight out view of the lake. I loved everything about this place - including the reception staff who proved both informative and helpful. And after settling in we walked the two minutes to the compact and lovely downtown.

    Very well equipped unit! Nice walking distance to both downtown Taupo and my uncle's home. Being by the lake with a view was a bonus! The managers were really friendly and had several good tips for breakfast and dinner spots in town. We were so happy with the free laundry, especially after a muddy few days in the Tongariro National Park. We would definitely choose Sails on a next visit to Taupo.

    Nice view from the lake apartments 😊 super close to town, so easy to walk in! Stayed here with my parents, perfect spot for a family holiday as pool/spa area attached and mini golf straight across the road. Perfect for couple too, easy walk in to town for shops, restaurants and bars 😊 would stay here again and recommend to anyone travelling into Taupo

    It was a quick decision to stay in Taupo, so only needed basic accommodation for the night. So was very cheap for a family of 4. The shared bathrooms were basic and clean-ish. Didn't use the shared kitchen so not sure what it was like. It had a jug, small fridge in the kitchenette.

    This is a very quiet location in a South Taupo neighbourhood; easy walk down the hill to the lake pathway (3 km or so into centre of town) and the Botanical Reserve. Great to have the washing machine & outdoor clothes line. Really appreciated the muesli.

    This was a great room, with spa and lake view. Breakfast on the balcony was a perfect way to start the day, and a cocktail watching the sun set a perfect way to end it. Will definitely stay there again if in Taupo
