Great room with a view of Lake Taupo

Visited Taupo with my wife and two daughters for a short stay in January 2024. We have a smooth check in process and the rooms were clean. There's a full kitchen and fridge which makes things really convenient. We have a room facing the lake with a sitting area on the balcony as well as picnic tables nearby. The hotel is close to restaurants and shops. Wonderful place.
