Taupo Thermal Motel & Spa - Adults Only

Taupo Thermal Motel & Spa - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"Others are right this motel is dated and shabby in place but I still loved my stay and will be back. I got upgraded to a huge room with lake views. It was great with tons of room and seperate kitchen and dining. But I'm an organised traveler and have a sleep mask which I definitely needed as there's a street light outside the kitchen and no curtains and there are no doors to close off the kitchen from the bedroom. Also the road it's overlooking Is Taupo's main lake route so pretty busy. If that sort of thing bothers you take a different room. The motel is in a great location and has parking. Would be helpful if they marked one way in and one way out as was a little confusing. Plus they should mark guest parking then pool parking as there were extra cars there within public pool hours. The two things that make this accom great and value for money are the fact it's child free. And the pools. They are divine and just what you need to de-stress and relax on holiday or a break. They are secluded and have different temps Inc a cold plunge pool. The setup is fab and you even get a locker and pool shoes. Towels can be hired extra. My only change would them being available to guests in the mornings The staff was fantastic too and I'll be back"
