We traveled from Auckland to Taupo and stayed here for 5 days Amazing service from the staff very friendly and catered to our every needs, room was cleaned and restocked daily which was very nice also loved the electric blankets and jumping into a nice cozy warm bed after a nice warm shower from a very bizi day and sight seeing. Very quiet place to stay the washing machines and dryers were very handy we came home with no dirty clothes at all. Kids wanted to play tennis but it ended up raining and u have to booke the hot tub which was also very nice too. Highly recommend will definately be back there ti stay again.

Were looking forward to a good nights rest after driving from the south island. We got no sleep at all due to a noise (we were in room 102) coming from outside. Sounded like a very loud jug was boiling all night. They had a problem with water leaking off the roof. Their idea of an apology was a simple "oh sorry about that". Didn't make us feel very much better in the morning when we were really tired and grumpy. Didn't stay for breakfast. Couldn't get out of there quicker.

Accomodation is a bit tired, lumpy mattresses that could do with replacing, as well as needs an upgrade to the windows (double glazing would be good!). The condensation in the mornings was intense. Overall suitable for what we needed but could do with some investment. Fire alarm at 12:45am was … interesting (freezing)!!! Appreciate that’s not the lodge’s fault but some sort of email apology or acknowledgement of the inconvenience or something wouldn’t have gone amiss!
