Check in was very smooth. We were showed to our room by a very friendly host. Our room was clean, tidy and had everything that we needed for our 1 night stay. Plenty of places to eat within a reasonable walking distance or short drive. Would return if we ever came back to this area.

This a small motel a few blocks back from the lakefront. Our room was a separate "cabin" in the rear garden. It was very clean and well presented with basic amenities. The " kitchen" was a small fridge and microwave in a cupboard. The bathroom was spacious and well appointed. The bedroom/ livingroom was quite cramped although adequate. I thought this was not very good value compared with other motels in Taupo in the same price bracket.

The Lake Hotel was very cute and comfortable. Wish we had stayed here more than 1 night just because it was so cute! Host steered us to a delicious dinner at the Mole and Chicken and we overall really enjoyed our stay.

Very clean. Close to the lake. Staff was very friendly. We could park our car right in front of the room door.

Very good location
