Great hot pool on site. Food at restaurant was great. Location awesome

Lack of heating facilities. No aircon in room. The wing we were in was quite old. Other side of accommodation had been renovated.

I don't usually write reviews, but this hotel and its staff truly deserve the acknowledgement. We had a fantastic stay at Wairakei Resort in Taupล. The hotel was wonderful, with great facilities and a lovely atmosphere, making our stay comfortable and enjoyable from start to finish. A special thank you to Milla, who was exceptionally welcoming, kind, professional, and incredibly helpful throughout our stay. She went above and beyond to make us feel valued and looked after, and her warm, friendly nature made a lasting impression. Outstanding customer service can make all the difference, and Milla is a true asset to the resort. We will definitely be staying here again in the future and would highly recommend Wairakei Resort to anyone visiting Taupล. Thank you, Milla, and the entire team, for making our stay so memorable.

Lโ€™hรดtel propose de nombreux รฉquipements et activitรฉs : sauna, deux piscines chauffรฉes, spa pool, espace de jeux pour enfants, terrain de tennis, grands jardins adaptรฉs aux familles et salle de sport, entre autres.

Lโ€™รฉtablissement est un peu vieillissant et la moquette des chambres mรฉriterait dโ€™รชtre remplacรฉe. Nรฉanmoins, lโ€™ensemble reste propre, malgrรฉ une lรฉgรจre odeur de renfermรฉ dans les chambres.

"Disappointing given itโ€™s a tourist hotel"

4.0

Location and amenities you could use if you stayed more than one night

Room clean but very cold with an inefficient heater. No electric blanket or spare blanket in the room. Given a blanket when I asked and warmed up by having a bath.
