Lake Motel was awesome — tons of space, less than 5 minute drive to downtown Taupo, and the owner was super kind and helped us out with our laundry. We would stay again in a heartbeat.

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 comfortable room and outdoor seating area which was just what we needed after 3 weeks camping. Very clean and well-appointed. Check-in was a breeze and helpful. The owner gave us a map and recommended several activities and sites in which we were interested. I highly recommend The Lake Motel.

Always love staying here, as it’s peaceful and the decor in each room (we have stayed in a few) is unique and well curated. We love the retro, mid- century vibe and the rooms are always immaculate and accommodating. They have everything you need and the motel is peaceful and secure. The best part, they are dog-friendly, which is super rare and such a relief, as it means we can keep our two pups with us on holiday. Amazing option which we are grateful for. Will definitely be back and our preferred place to stay when in Taupō.
