Top Wairakei Hotel Reviews

Lakefront Lodge Taupo

10/10 Excellent

"Lakeshore Lodge was the perfect stay for us. We were passing through Taupo and just needed nice place to stay for a couple of nights. The staff was amazingly friendly, the room was clean with a nice bathroom, and we enjoyed the restaurant on site. We will definitely stay there again."

Le Chalet Suisse Motel Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"A huge one bedroom, 2 level apartment, that unexpectedly had 2 bathrooms, and 2 TVs both with Sky movies and sport! Lovely big spa bath and a Great Lake view from the huge top level master bedroom. Great handy location, walking distance to town and restaurants. Good value. Highly recommend."

Wairakei Resort Taupo by Accor

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay"

Beechtree Motel

8/10 Good

"Good stay"

Sacred Waters

8/10 Good

"Wonderful Apartment. As it was very windy the Sails on deck were quite noisy and shook the whole apartment."

Millennium Hotel and Resort Manuels Taupō

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful cottage. Service was amazing. Great place to rest."

Tui Oaks Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Had a nice stay with the Lake view."

Hilton Lake Taupo

8/10 Good

"for what you pay, if you are not part of a club, it is disappointing that you do not have free access to the WIFI, this is the first hotel i have come across in a while that is the case. Also the having to pay $3 for a bottle of water, (again if not a club member) is a bit rich. Otherwise, the rooms are quiet, well set up, a little tired around the edges now though. The Pool and Spa are really excellent, and the highlight of the nights stay. Parking is frustrating if there is an event on there, and you get stuck coming back late, you have to walk a very long way, like there is not specific close guest parking."

Grandeur Thermal Spa Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay for one night. The place was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. It was definitely worth what we paid and offered good value for money. Overall, we had a pleasant stay and would happily recommend it to others!"
