Independent in Rotokawa from NZ$85

"The staff and reception are friendly. Check in is fast. We have 3 adults and 1 kid in my family. They offer us a free upgrade to a much larger and luxury room because they said the room we booked may be too small for 4 people. They are so kind and considerate."

"Definitely not your standard “motel” stay! Beautiful, thoughtfully appointed rooms, spotlessly clean and lovely hosts. Great location in the centre of Taupo and walking distance to an endless number of restaurants. We had a two-bedroom suite with a spa bath, and it was more than comfortable for our family of four. The room would have been suitable for a far longer stay than we had time for. Highly recommended."

"I went to taupo for my trip. Stay in silver fern lodge. It gives a very good experience also quite environment. No disturbance and a good with a cheap option room. "

"First time here. Wont be the last. Super friendly staff. Central location. Clean rooms, great bed."

"Wonderful character about this property. Very friendly welcoming team of staff and fabulous views across the lake and to the snow-capped mountains. An impressive range of choice for breakfast options, lovely pool, gym and steam/sauna rooms and an all round wonderful and memorable experience. We will definately be planning to return. "

"Great location and facilities! "

"The staff ,the meals and room were excellent which made a pleasurable stay."

"The view of the lake was awesome and when the sky was clear you could see Mt ruapehu from our lodging. The heated floor was a bonus for the winter chill and the beds were nice and soft. Town was down the road and family activities were close by. Was an amazing time for me and my family."

"Old but charming. Perfect for a night stay with beautiful views. "
