Hilton Lake Taupo

Hilton Lake Taupo

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was located on a hill overlooking Lake Taupo as opposed to on the lake. We had a lovely well presented room that featured Crabtree and Evelyn toiletries ( one of my favorite brands) Staying in Lake Taupo was definitely a highlight of our trip."

Taupo DeBretts Spa Resort

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed only one night but I really think this is a place you would want to spend a couple of days to get maximum benefit from everything on offer. Only issue was the soap dispenser in the shower ran out of soap while I was in the shower (last one of three to use it) other than that enjoyable stay."

8/10 Good
"Good accommodation on the lake. Clean rooms. Need to drive to main stretch for restaurants etc so we ate in the restaurant. I’d booked ahead and specifically asked for a good window seat overlooking the lake which they didn’t reserve for us, so disappointed with that. Food was good but it felt very subdued and dated."
