Reasonable

Our stay was fine but the rooms were tiny. There is no room to store a suitcase flat. Bed was comfortable and showering our room was good.

The room was tired and there was very little storage which meant we had to live out of our suitcase. It is well positioned on the lake front and it was an easy walk into town.

No airconditioning. Quirky after-hours doors and limited site communication. We noticed one guest who inadvertently locked himself out of his room with his key and phone left in the room. He ended up sleeping in the hallway because there was no way to contact the desk agents.

Really nice place. the refurbished "superior" rooms are much nicer than the old dated ones. the pine clad rooms and african themed hallways have definately had thier day, but they new rooms in lighter colours much more modern and spacious feeling. on site bar and restaurant were surprisingly good too, had a really nice meal here. Just dont expect breakfast. unfortunately the advertised breakfast restaurant is only open on weekends, so we were dissapointed we couldnt eat here on a thursday morning (this is not advertised anywhere. or even mentioned in in-room breakfast menu). if it wasnt for that would have given 5 stars. really enjoyed the hot spa pool in the evening after coming back from cycling that day

It was nice and clean . Staff could of gone a bit further and been more welcoming. You hear a lot of noise from other people, you could hear alot of footsteps, using the bathroom, coughing etc. Not that people were noisy you just heard alot of noise through the walls. So if your going in a lovey sexy weekend, it might not be the place for you,or maybe it is.

We were greeted by Clare and Lion at reception. Lovely, friendly and helpful. Our room was very small but clean. Bed was comfy and it was very quiet. We only stayed one night and it was perfect for our purposes passing through Taupō. I am sure there are bigger rooms available. The view from the front of the hotel is beautiful and the lake is magnificent.
