It seems that the older ratings can be seen as not valid anymore. The new manager puts a huge effort on creating a great time for all her guests. Ive been there twice during my NZ holiday, once on my own and with my siblings the second time, and was really satisfied with both rooms I got. Weve had worse... More

We booked in here after a tip off that a new manager had smartened things up! The tips were correct. Lovely clean rooms, friendly service and location is excellent. Close to town and with a restaurant/bar on site it suited our needs perfectly. The new room we stayed in was fresh and even had plunger coffee. The older rooms have... More

We had stayed at Twin Peaks overnight on our way to skiing, with 45 people in Mid July 2011. To our surprises, at Twin Peaks they not only offered spectacular view of the mountains and lake Taupo, but also lovely service to every detail with flexibility of any changes, and very clean rooms! Thank you for everything, look forward to... More

Excepted a lot nicer room for the amount paid of $150.00. Room felt dirty - and there was part of a condom wrapper under the bed. we had two rooms - both smelt musky and like someone said before felt like we were getting bee stings from the shower. the only thing i did enjoy was the nice bar restaurant...

Very very disappointed with the amenities in Room 808, dirty, smelly, cups dirty, net curtains filthy, shower curtain disgusting, furnishings very inferior and old and in need of a paint brush. Very basic - more like back-packers accommodation rather than a motel in a superb location on the lake front. Would never stay there again.

Helpful friendly staff, rooms were beautiful, clean and modern. Fantastic view of Lake Taupo. wonderful Restaurant and bar. Walking distance to the main CBD. Will definitely be back to stay.

We stayed for 3 nights last weekend in one of the units in the new block. The new block is obviously really nice compared to the older part of the motel but there is no view as it is behind the old block. So if you want a really nice room stay in the new block, but if you want... More

The previous reviews are far too harsh for this place. It is simple, but it is a motel! The location cannot be beat, the lake is across the road and, unlike much other similar accommodation in Taupo, is a true walk to Taupo centre. Our room, 21, had a fantastic view and was clean and included free wifi. It was... More

Thank goodness we only booked one night here. I must admit the lady that checked us in was really nice but from then on it all went down hill. After settling in we found the dishes in the kitchenette to be dirty, the spa bath (which didn't work) hadn't been cleaned properly and I had to wipe it out before... More
