Top Taupō Hot Springs Hotel Reviews

The Cove Taupo

8/10 Good

"The hotel is a little outside Taupo town centre, but it’s a very good choice if you’re just passing through, don’t need to visit the town centre, and especially if you’re planning to visit Taupo DeBretts Hot Springs. One thing to be aware of is that the hotel’s café, Espresso Cove Taupo, is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. I was also assigned a room without an elevator, so I had to carry my 23 kg suitcase and the rest of my luggage up and down the stairs myself. This was quite inconvenient, especially with heavy luggage. Overall, the location is convenient for a short stopover."

Taupo DeBretts Spa Resort

8/10 Good

"The basic cabin was exactly what the name suggests: a basic space that fitted a bunk bed and single bed, a small table, small fridge, and enough floor space for your bag. Better than sleeping in a tent. But definitely not flash. Ours was joined to another room with just a locked door and very thin walls between us (we could easily hear everything the people in the adjoining room said) and we found the mattresses very thin and uncomfortable. But we were warm and dry."

Beechtree Motel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is not new but the room was very clean, with good sheets and towels. It is a good option for the price."

Twin Peaks Lakeside Inn

8/10 Good

"Close to town, and a pub right onsite, but quiet and comfortable. Had Sky 55+, so many channels to choose from, and if you get the rooms near the back corner you'll get the sunset for much longer"

Lakeland Resort Taupo

10/10 Excellent

"Everything is very Good Excellent customer service and the room is very neat and tidy"

Lakefront Lodge Taupo

8/10 Good

"😊"

Sacred Waters

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful stay! Can’t wait to come back"

Cascades Lakefront Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely situation on Lake Taupō. Would have liked a bow of the Lake and Mountains"

Oasis Beach Motel

8/10 Good

"The view from the room was spectacular. Walked along the shore right from our room. Room was clean had many useful amenities. The “heated pool” was ice cold. The jacuzzi as barely warm enough to get in. The staff at the check in desk were fantastic. The staff in the dining room were very condescending."
