Set in Taupo, 36 km from Orakei Korako Cave and Thermal Park, Ashbrook Motel Taupo offers accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking. This 4-star motel offers room service and a tour desk. Certain units at the property feature a balcony with a city view. Absolutely everything! I couldn't fault a single thing about this place, it was absolutely perfect for us. It was spotless clean, attention to detail from house keeping, the staff were some of the kindest people I've ever met.

Lake Taupo and Tokaanu Thermal Pools are within 5 minutes’ drive from Creel Lodge. The Tongariro National Park’s ski fields and walking trails are 40 minutes’ drive away. Nice location and beautiful rooms. Only stayed for one night but enjoyed the walk nearby and used their kitchen facilities to cook a nice steak dinner.

A beautifully well kept and cared for property. There was even a golf green to practice pitches. My arm got more of a workout throwing fetch toys for the dogs than it’s had in a while. Much fun by and loads of love from the dogs. We were sustained almost until dinner with the full and fabulous breakfast.

Boasting air-conditioned accommodation with a pool with a view, quiet street view and a patio, Waimahana - Luxury By The Lake is situated in Taupo. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The apartment has a sauna and a lift. Waimahana was a wonderful and comfortable stay, particularly the bed. We were there to attend my daughter's football tournament week. It was located close to Crown Park, which was very convenient. We loved our time there and even extended for one more night. Our host was excellent and accommodating, even when we requested a late check-out. She was most accommodating, which was appreciated, given that I had recently undergone surgery and rushing to check out was a bit challenging for me at the time. Thank you, so, so much for a fantastic stay. We will definitely be back again!
