Taupō

Looking out across Lake Taupo at the Central North Island volcanoes, Mount Ruapehu, Mount Ngauruhoe, and Mount Tongariro. The town of Taupo is very nice, with plenty of cheap hostels, around $25-35 per night

Clean room, nice staff, good facilities. The only thing is you can only take stairs to the second floor, so if you have big luggage, it will be a bit inconvenient.
