Was travelling in New Zealand when I was forced to isolate and this location after contracting Covid (it's still out there folks!). Francis & Grant the managers ... in fact the entire team ... took my predicament in their stride, were sympathetic and helpful. My apartment was spacious and confortable with everything I need for the isolation period. Lovely location on the front at Taupo although it's still a fair walk to the centre (there is a pub / restaurant next door that alas I could not try!). Nice looking pool and Spa. I recommend going for a first floor apartment if you can so that your views are not obscured by parked cars, though be prepared to carry cases etc steps. Grounds well-kept with a nice area for a bbq. Very impressed - would not hesitate to stay again!

Enjoyed the quietness and cleanliness of the environment, rooms were spacious, easy access to pool/spa, town and lake. We personally wouldn’t stay again. Found both beds and pull out couch beds uncomfortable glad to be home in my own bed as we all had little to no sleep. Didn’t have enough sheets and towels and no disability parks made things difficult not just for us but the disabled man in next room who we heard complaining to his wife about it. Master bed sat right under windows/curtains so sun woke me up at 5 and was a draft on my head. Wasnt horrible but wasn’t our cup of tea.

The Great Lake Motel Taupo has been a fantastic experience for us. The staff at the reception was super friendly and helpful. She helped us with our laundry; we needed our laundry to be done express, she allowed us to use their own dryer which was a lot faster and more powerful. A super nice lady :) The location of the motel is superb, it is within few minutes walk to the town center where there were many great eateries; it is also right in front of the lake Taupo and the ”ILOVELAKETAUPO” sign. The room was in a very clean state and well set-up. In addition, the jacuzzi was amazing with full bubble function. We usually hesitate to use hotel's jacuzzi due to hygiene, but the Great Lake Motel was super clean and we felt very comfortable. We stayed at this place right after our big hike at the Tangariro. So the bubbly jacuzzi hit the spot :) All in all, we enjoyed our stay very much and we would definitely come back to this place whenever we are in lake Taupo again. Highly recommended!

A few minutes' walk from the beach, there is a natural hot spring with a pool. There is a kitchen but it is not available. The handsome guy at the front desk provides very good service. Parking is very convenient, and it takes about 4 to 5 minutes to drive to get Chinese food.
Very Good

Been meaning to stay for years as rest of family have many times. Loved it, BUT....... security needs updating. Maybe they are doing that as toilet security door was missing and so was front access barrier! Had some very suspect people using toilet and shower facilities this morning. Definitely didn't look like guest and didn't have caravan or tent. By the look of the face tattoos looked like and behaved like gang members. Without security gates or doors they will just come in. Also some people had a lot of food- meat stolen from fridge. Sad. :( ALL THAT SAID- it's still a lovely camp. Facilities are clean, and good location next to hot pools and good sites with reasonable privacy on most sites. Would stay again.

Beautiful rooms overlooking the lake. Plenty of space and large balcony to sit and enjoy the view. Location was excellent just far enough out of town to be quiet but close enough to walk in along a walkway. Staff were extremely friendly. Room was clean with lovely quality bedding Dinner in the on site restaurant was really good and with a great view of the lake. Breakfast was fairly basic but sufficient and of a good quality. We would definitely stay again when in this area highly recommended

As a Hilton Honors member, my stay at the hotel met the usual satisfactory quality. Peter at the front desk was excellent in accommodating our needs, and overall, we had a good time. However, I want to caution future guests to adjust their expectations:
• The location, while quiet, is farther from the center and lakeside, requiring a car and likely keeping you at the hotel in the evening.
• Our room, possibly the least expensive, was extremely small with limited space for sitting or even opening our suitcases.
• Staff training or updated information is necessary; the website mentioned a happy hour, but there was none on Friday. Conflicting details about breakfast and check-out times were provided.
• While amenities were nice, the steam room and sauna floor were dangerously slippery, leading to a hard fall and injury. Additionally, the pool water was not clean, with numerous hairs inside.
• Some equipment, like the coffee machine, was not working.

LlittleanaThe resort is right on the beach, separated by a road. Although there is no sea view, the room is quite comfortable. The receptionist is full of energy. There is a heated swimming pool in the hotel. The room is relatively large. It is good to cook your own meals in the kitchen at night.

GGuest UserThis hotel is in a wonderful location. We could walk anywhere in town. They have great laundry facilities and the rooms are really excellent The staff were really friendly and helpful . They have done a wonderful job on the rooms, Keith a small kitchen and a good seating area. The bathrooms were first class.

GGuest UserWe stayed here as one nighters both in late January and early February. There were 2 single beds in the room as well as a Queen. 2 bathrooms also, the handbasin's hot water was only a tickle from the tap in the upstairs bathroom in unit 3. There was a big spa bath which we did not use. There was both an outdoor sitting.lounging area downstairrs and very sunny balcony upstairs - great for a sundown drink. The February stay had us in a room with only one signle bed and a Queen bed, no updtairs, and a outdoor seating/lounging area, The rooms are clean, well equiped, comfortable and spacious enough. Plenty of bath towels provided also. The rooms reek of air freshner, which I hated but some establishments clearly like using it liberally and unnecessarily. A short walk down a back path on the premises will take you down to the lakeside walkway and beach area, we walked around to the lovely outdoor seating lakeside Millenium bar and had a drink, it was a nice quite spot. The decor is dated and the wallpaper is peeling in parts, a refurb should be on the cards soon. It is very popular so it must be appealing enough. Yes, I would recommend (if you only require a clean bed for the night. Reasonably priced also.

YYUEIt’s ok, but the only single-storey room is arranged. This is the second booking, because I was staying on the upper and lower floors before I felt good and I would continue to choose this one. After reacting with the store, I still wouldn’t change it. Happy
3.9/5
GGuest UserThe 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.

GGuest UserWe enjoyed our stay at Wairaki resorts, especially the swimming in the huge inviting pools heated thermally. One can take a short walk from the lower pool along a steaming hot creek that feeds the pools. Don't miss it. Our room was plainly furnished but very comfortable and well laid out. Fine sleeping in this quiet peaceful setting with only a lovely array of bird calls. The menu was a bit limited, but the meals were very good, and we particularly enjoyed the excellent and extensive breakfast buffet. The staff were very friendly and helpful. One can rent bikes, and I loved my hilly ride to a marvelous waterfall while my husband golfed at the beautifully laid out course next door.

GGuest UserThe hotel is not near the town center. not much facilities provided . it will be little difficult for old folks since there is no elevator provided. we have to carry three big luggage big to second floor.

JJERRYIt is recommended to live in a lake-view room, which has a beautiful and natural environment and is suitable for family travel. The room is clean and hygienic, the facilities are complete, the service attitude is quite good, and will patiently explain the precautions. The hotel is equipped with parking spaces, so there is no need to worry about parking problems. All in all, a value-for-money experience.

GGuest UserWe were booked at The Grandeur via an online site for 2 nights for 4 of us. I rung the night before we left to confirm we would be arriving the following day, everything was all sorted and they were expecting us even though they hadn't replied to my email asking for confirmation. The following day (4 hrs into a 6 hr driv)e I get a message to say booking has been cancelled ???? I rung to question and was told even though I selected to pay on arrival they had a direct booking so had given them our room. I advised we were nearly in Taupo and was told we'll sorry you should have the money and pay up front, I explained I did have the money and he could just debit my card, I was given the option on booking to pay on arrival which worked well for us and had never been a problem with any of our previous extensive NZ travelling. He said not my problem and hung up. We then had to park up for an hour to try and arrange accomodation for 4 of us when the whole town was literally booked out apart from the high end hotels. We did manage to find 2 available units but at double the price as had to book 2 units instead of a 2 bedroom. My husband could hear him yelling down the phone at me and being so rude especially when I said I would be sure to warn others of his unprofessionalism. Thankfully we didn't stay there if that's his attitude where a direct booking worth more money involves canceling a traveller's plans on the day as to not have to pay the booking company a commission definately not customer focused. To insult a customer by saying maybe you should have some money is so rude and arrogant as that wasn't an issue. I have since been told the place is disgustingly dirty, mouldy and we had a lucky escape. Be warned do not deal with this guy you could end up sleeping in your car if he gets a better offer for your already booked room.
