The Alpine Lake Motor Lodge provided exceptional value. The owner provided exceptional customer service and could not help us enough. The moment I walked into the room I was taken back by the quality modern layout of the amenities from the full size kitchen, spacious bathroom with a separate spa bath, to the expansive living area with numerous quality appointments. We could not have asked for any better and provided exceptional value for money. The location was ideal walking distance to the local shops and restaurants. Highly recommended quality accommodation if you stay in Taupo 10 out of 10.

Quiet, private outdoor space for some

Studio with whirlpool bath. It was reasonably sized and had everything needed, but wasn't particularly comfortable. The bed was far too soft, there were 2 comfy chairs but sitting on the bed turned out to be more comfortable. However the downstairs room had a little outside area where we ate breakfast. Admittedly it was surrounded by high walls for privacy so no view but a positive. Also there was a notice saying don't use air-conditioning after 10pm to not disturb other guests. It was ok in November, but I wondered if in summer it might be too hot at night without it.

Found dead sandflies under the pillow, right before going to bed, imagine if that’s you. Tried to talk to the reception but they said on the contact page, only contact for emergency after hour. I checked google and found out this place ranked as 4 star hotel, I mean come on, how bold of you to claim that when there’s even no phone in the room, nor the 24 hours reception.
