Te Aroha Motel
4.5/548 Reviews
We stayed as a family of 4 the rooms were emaculately clean, the beds were beautiful and very generous sizing, local milk in beauitful glass bottles connecting the local rural communiy was a great touch.All appliances were new and whisper quiet, which meant we all slept very well. Glenys gave us plenty of advice on where to take the children, local hot pools were a hit and the domain next door with playground gardens and basket ball courts for free family fun, the exploding geyser was great entertainment, very handy location to all the walking tracks up mt Te aroha, supermarket and shops easy walking distance from motel. The service was second to none. Rod and Glenys were amazing hosts who went above and beyond to make sure we all had the best stay. We had car trouble, and they opened their garage and time to help us get back on the road forever grateful.Truely, beautiful caring people. We will be back again soon and have told all our friends and family of our new favorite motel
Twin Peaks Lakeside Inn
3.8/5104 Reviews
There are some car hotels, right next to Lake Taupo, the scenery does not say, the car stops at the door of the room, very convenient, very suitable for self-driving travel. The rooms are compact but well-equipped, cooking and bathing are not a problem. It is very close to the supermarket and the place to eat, and there are two or three intersections by car. The New Zealand big sister at the front desk was very enthusiastic and stayed with milk.
Pedlars Motel
4.7/599 Reviews
A motel I have given 5 stars. Never done that before! Brand spanking new and being maintained at that level. Situated in middle of town by Rail Trail and swiming pool. Excellent parking inside with ovrrflow parking free on the upper confetence car park. Specialised equipped laundry has power points for charging ebikes, locked overnight and wuthin owners accomodation for extra security. Rooms are small but equiped to 5 star with high end appluances, biscuits, full powder drink range chocolate to green tea. Similarly in house catering is yummy. I rave about this accomodation as the owner has made no short cuts to luxury.
YHA Waitomo, Juno Hall
4.3/517 Reviews
We spent a very enjoyable couple of nights here in our campervan on our way down the north island. The site itself was quiet and secluded, with a number of animals nearby, including cows, sheep, pigs and a deer! The communal facilities are comprehensive and clean, with extensive and comfortable seating both inside and on the large verandah which surrounds the building. But what makes Juno Hall particularly special is Dave, the manager (and his dog, George), who has a quirky sense of humour and a heart of gold, often going above and beyond to help guests and is also a mine of information. Go visit - it is a gem!
Quality Inn Acapulco Taupo
4.1/593 Reviews
This hotel is very quiet, not far from Lake Taupo. The entrance to the yard is a large lawn. There is a road but not the main road. The surrounding environment is very good. There is a big supermarket within 5 minutes of driving. You can buy some ingredients to cook your own food. There are kitchen pots and pans, a double bed and single bed, suitable for family outings! Parking stops at the door of the room where you live! I will stay here now, and the price is right!
Haka House Taupo
3.9/545 Reviews
The ease of being able to check in and out without going to reception is a useful feature (we arrived in good time to see the helpful gentleman on reception to check in). We did not use the full facilities of the lounge and kitchen. The room and bathroom were clean. The room was nicely a presented, comfortable bed and functional for what we needed during our stay in Taupo. We ate at Thai delight, a short walk away and had a lovely meal that came promptly and with good service.
FatOwl Motel, Bar & Eatery
4.3/553 Reviews
Patrick couldn’t do enough for us. Superb rooms. Large, great bedding, towels and toiletries. Good heating and amazing decor. Pub next door serves excellent food and staff were all incredible. We were cycling 120km over the weekend and Patrick was full of tips and even offered to help if we got injured or stuck. We left our cars there and they were very accommodating. On return we booked a room to shower before heading back to Auckland and be put 10 towels and soap in the room for us. Also complimentary continental breakfast and lounge room. Microwave, toaster, cereal and milk. Thanks Patrick and your wife. Your service, food, motel was top notch.
Palm Motel Waihi
3.9/534 Reviews
Great location in Waihi, handy to everything. Parking onsite outside of unit. Unit was very clean and well arranged. Never stayed anywhere that provided as many power outlets. Normally have to search for them to charge phones etc, but they had plenty. Owners are lovely and friendly. We didnt use the pool as we didnt have time really. Unit has a microwave which is convenient and was spacious for 3 of us. Would stay again. The one downside was the traffic noise with being so close to the highway.
Waitomo Lodge
4.3/560 Reviews
We stayed here for 2 nights in January/February 2020 and chose this location based on Tripadvisor's comments. At first glance we thought we would be disappointed when we got on the bus to the hotel. It looked like a regular motel outside along the highway. But this place is much more than it looks. Our room was large with high ceilings and complete kitchenette overlooking the stream behind. The place was spotless and everything went well. Although we have a kitchen in the unit, there is still a guest kitchen for any room, and no one - with cooking utensils, ovens, stoves, microwaves, etc. There is a great coffee shop/cafe across the street - but it is closed at noon in the afternoon. Overall, it was a great stay and we would definitely stay here again if we were back in the area..
BKs Premier Motel Hamilton
4.5/594 Reviews
Hotel/Motel that goes the extra mile. Lots of extras. We stayed in a King Spa Room. Very comfortable bed and pillows. High quality linen. Real coffee and a coffee press in the room. Reclining chairs to watch TV. Quiet at night. Located outside of the main downtown area, but a short drive by car. Friendly hosts. Would definitely recommend this motel.
