Top Taupō Museum and Art Gallery Hotel Reviews

Quality Inn Acapulco Taupo

10/10 Excellent

"Spacious & good."

Quest Taupo Serviced Apartments

8/10 Good

"The staff member on check in was very helpful. I was very disappointed in how the booking went, when I put in for 2 children and 1 adult, I only got a King sized bed. This should not happen"

Taupo Thermal Motel & Spa - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"It was perfect for our needs. Older place but updated and clean. The mineral pool in our room was great and handy and we took full advantage when we could. Great to end a hard busy week at work. Will definitely come back again"

Acacia Lake View Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay, very easy walk to town."

Twin Peaks Lakeside Inn

8/10 Good

"We stayed for one night on our way to the mountain. The staff were lovely and helpful. We were given milk on arrival and here were nice toiletries and coffee/tea in our room. The sheets were clean and the beds had electric blankets, and the room had a heat pump so very warm. The motel is on the older side, pretty basic but had everything we needed. Everything was very clean, but I think the age of the bathroom means that the shower can't look really sparkling. One minor issue was we specifically booked a room with a queen and two single beds as we were travelling with two kids who are too old to share a bed. Unfortunately our room had two queens - so if you specifically want two singles it may pay to request that directly with the management."

10/10 Excellent
