Taupo: hotel a 2 stelle

We stayed here as one nighters both in late January and early February. There were 2 single beds in the room as well as a Queen. 2 bathrooms also, the handbasin's hot water was only a tickle from the tap in the upstairs bathroom in unit 3. There was a big spa bath which we did not use. There was both an outdoor sitting.lounging area downstairrs and very sunny balcony upstairs - great for a sundown drink. The February stay had us in a room with only one signle bed and a Queen bed, no updtairs, and a outdoor seating/lounging area, The rooms are clean, well equiped, comfortable and spacious enough. Plenty of bath towels provided also. The rooms reek of air freshner, which I hated but some establishments clearly like using it liberally and unnecessarily. A short walk down a back path on the premises will take you down to the lakeside walkway and beach area, we walked around to the lovely outdoor seating lakeside Millenium bar and had a drink, it was a nice quite spot. The decor is dated and the wallpaper is peeling in parts, a refurb should be on the cards soon. It is very popular so it must be appealing enough. Yes, I would recommend (if you only require a clean bed for the night. Reasonably priced also.

La stanza è pulita, temperata e spaziosa. Bello avere un balcone ma è vicino alla strada. Non è inclusa una cucina privata o cucina, ma c'è una grande cucina comune nel 2/F. Come la maggior parte degli hotel o motel, non c'è nessuno nel conteggio della ricezione dalle 8:40 alle 10 del giorno dopo.

La facilità di essere in grado di controllare senza andare alla ricezione è una caratteristica utile (arriviamo in tempo per vedere il gentiluomo che aiuta a controllare la ricezione), non abbiamo usato le strutture complete della sala e della cucina. La stanza e il bagno erano puliti. La stanza era un bellissimo letto presentato, comodo e funzionale per quello che ci serviva durante il nostro soggiorno a Taupo. Mangiavamo in Thai piacere, a pochi passi da qui e avevamo un bel pasto che venne immediatamente e con buon servizio.

Perfect location with good facilities and worth the money... Recommended for Taupo stopover or longer stay...

Arrived in Taupō on Hwy5. Make sure to stop and viewing spot on entry to town with a wonderful panoramic view. The Acacia was easy to find on the road running along the lake edge. We were met in reception by Christine who made us most welcome and engaged in easy conversation. She was most accomodating & upgraded us to room 11 at the front of house with direct views of the lake across the road. Wonderful and very generous. The room was huge by any standard with a kitchenette and private balcony. This really made our stay that much better. There is a Hole in One golf competition opposite the hotel. Shots are to a floating target green in the lake 100m with a $10,000 prize for a hole in one. Had to try that! Thank you Christine you made our stay perfect.

The motel is centrally located and is walking distance to most Amneties, including the beach. The rooms are spacious and very clean. It has very modern furniture and accessories, desktop burner and dishwasher. We stayed in Unit 3 and the aircon and TV were excellent. Parking space is also available for free. The surrounding gardens are beautiful. The hosts are excellent.

The room we stayed in was very comfortable, very clean and very interesting - full of memorabilia from the 60s and 70s. There was a very nice shared garden area for all guests to use. We didn’t, as the weather wasn’t suitable, but it would be a lovely space in appropriate weather. Love the amount of thought and passion that the owners have put into the unit. Definitely recommend staying here

We had Rm 303, 3rd floor. We loved the fabulous view of Lake Taupo. We liked the proximity to eateries. Beds were comfy, so were pillows and sheets. Staff we saw were frirndly too. But, this motel had its heyday in the 1980s and is in need of a full refurb. It shows. Lift was noisy (outside our room). Traffic noise noticeable, motel is on a very busy road so couldnt leave window open. To access the bedroom one had to go through the bathroom (toilet not separate). Or, if you were in the 2nd bedroom, you were trapped in there until the person finished in the bathroom. Light switch for bathroom in the kitchen. No air con/heat pump. Only portable fans or oil fin heaters. Everything tired, although clean. Shower pressure not strong and you have to step up into it, and step down to get out of it. Could be an issue for elderly or people with mobility issues. We thought there are newer motels that are better value in Taupo to stay at.

Four of the 8 to 13 year-old nephews and I stayed for one night on the way to the snow. It's hard to find a place that can accommodate 1 adult and 4 kids but the 2-bedroom motel unit 8 was brilliant for us. The boys first glimpse of the snow was the excellent (ok, it was distant) view was from the primary bedroom. Really welcoming staff and brilliant to have the short walk to the hot pools. There is a full size fridge, everything we needed in the kitchen for our stay, and a large enough dining table for us all. The bunk room is pretty tight, and 5 sharing a bathroom took a bit of arranging, but it was welcoming, warm, and great value for our family group. We will have to come back, we spent the evening in the pools and didn't manage time for the boys to try out the giant bouncy pillow.
