We booked the executive spa suite and it was perfect. We loved the spa tub in the room, we also loved the jacuzzi by the pool. Water pressure in the shower was strong we were so impressed. Great little stay, definitely will be back.

We like to stay here as it’s close to town and the spa bath is excellent. Have stayed quite a few times. Unfortunately there were a few disappointing things this visit. The only two wine glasses were completely different sizes, only one spoon, only tiny milk on first day. It seems they don’t service each day now so no extra milk or replacement towels.

Our stay in this centrally located motel was great, due in part to the very warm welcome from staff and the ongoing interactions with them. They were very happy to help. All amenities were just as described in their website. Overall a great base for site seeing in Taupo.
