Top Waitahanui Hotel Reviews

Wairakei Resort Taupo by Accor

10/10 Excellent

"The surroundings"

Hilton Lake Taupo

8/10 Good

"The staff were friendly and accommodating. The venue is a little dated but clean and the breakfast was generous."

Twin Peaks Lakeside Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, amazing staff"

Ika Nui Taupo

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed three nights, it was a perfect location and the room was clean and worked well for us. The only thing I would point out was that the pool cues in the games room had no ends on them and the pool balls were not all there, my kids and I enjoy playing on a pool table so were disappointed that we were unable to play. Other than that I recommend Ika Nui and will stay there again."

The Village Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Great outdoor pool.Very clean. Staff very nice. Handy to everything."

Beechtree Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay. Will be back."

Grandeur Thermal Spa Resort

8/10 Good

"Good basic cheap accommodation"

Taupo DeBretts Spa Resort

8/10 Good

"The room was clean, had everything we needed , beds were comfy very comfy , had all the amenities including air con and running hot water which catered to me and my family of 4. Very quiet and you even get views of Lake Taupo from the room . For the price we paid we got more than we bargained for 👏. Props to the house keepers whom work hard day in day out to get these rooms looking the way they do for guests. Only downside is when you’re going to the pools be mindful it’s A steep walk down and then back up once you are done swimming . That’s the biggest downfall with De Bretts , and run down."

Sacred Waters

10/10 Excellent

"Relaxing lake view"
