Millennium Hotel and Resort Manuels Taupō

8/10 Good
"The property's location right on the lakefront is brilliant. There was not even a roadway between our room and the lake. There was a beautiful breeze each evening through the glass sliding doors. The property is not new but it is well maintained, comfortable and clean."
