- Lindsay (6/5): Um, OK, but we went elsewhere on our most recent stay. - A clean, tidy unit. The manager gave us a discount as a returning customer. Quite cramped for two. Only one relaxing chair and you couldn't put it in a place where you could watch TV. Mismatched crockery and cutlery. The manager told me there had been a lot of group bookings that had caused the problem. He said it would be sorted in a week's time. I couldn't accept this because on my earlier stay I had complained about mismatched cutlery and crockery (in the same unit) - and he apologised and said he would fix it. It obviously didn't happen.

- Xingzhong (10/5): - Lake Breeze Motel has an excellent location, just a one-minute walk from Lake Taupo. The rooms are spotlessly clean, equipped with heating, and the heated mattress was a delightful surprise that gave me a very restful sleep. The owner has lived in the area for many years and can provide thorough and helpful advice for any questions about traveling in Taupo. The motel also offers parking, making it an especially good choice if you’re driving.
- Andrew (7/5): Great price. Great facilities except for the thin walls. If you can bare the noise you are good. - Price and facilities were good. Walls were very thin. You can hear every move of your neighbours which is the only thing I didn't like. Other than that everything else was really good.
- cai (10/5): - 非常好!安静且舒适,性价比很高,推荐!
- XUEJING (10/5): 非常舒适的住宿体验,近距离享受陶波美景,非常推荐! - 我们住的房间很干净,有小厨房和简单厨具可用,设施齐全。走出房门就能看见陶波绝美晚霞,再走两步就能到达湖边,享受平静陶波湖!老板人很nice好沟通!下次来陶波还会选择入住并推荐给朋友!
- Harmony (10/5): Highly recommend & booking again!! - Highly recommend this accommodation!!!
As a women travelling solo this place is perfect. Location close to lake, very clean and despite me needing to go in and out during the night, I felt very safe the entire time. The staff is very friendly and reception was comforting when I thought I’d be late for check in. Absolutely appreciated that. Definitely booking again
- Suzannah (8/5): -
- Michael (9/5): - We got a free upgrade to our room which was really nice. Location was good, short walk to town and the lake. They had the movie channels on the tv, we watched Coyote Ugly it was a cracker.
- Jodeci (9/5): - Great Area. Close to the lake. Very Quiet The beds were a bit uncomfortable for me and my partner. Room Sliding doors were hard to open & close
- Julie (10/5): Really great!! - They were extremely accommodating, we had to do a late check in and they were amazing to deal with!
- Hamish (10/5): -
- maarten (9/5): heel goed - er was geen ontbijt bij inbegrepe . en wat het meest beviel is dat hel vlakbij lake Taupo is gevestigd alles was goed. Geen enkele reden tot klagen .
- Petra (3/5): - Das Bad war recht neu. Das Zimmer war sehr klein, man konnte sich kaum bewegen.
- paul (8/5): -
- Delwyn (10/5): Affordable clean and tidy accommodation with an empathetic host - highly recommend - We contacted Andy a few days prior to arrange early key pickup and registration as we were attending a funeral and unsure when we would be able to book in. To our surprise Andy messaged us at 11.30 on the day to say that we could get into our units- his thoughtfulness and kindness was so appreciated. We would recommend anyone wanting affordable clean and tidy accommodation to stay here The property is a little outdated but very clean and tidy - this is not a criticism
- Pete (8/5): - Very clean and in a great location Turned the card around on the door so the room could be made up and all the staff done was replenish the coffee and put new towels on the semi made bed.
Apart from that the accommodation and stay was very good.
- QIANG (9/5): -
- Geoffray (8/5): Sympathique et convivial - Localisation géographique et rue calme Chambre un peu petite quand on est avec 2 valises
- John (7/5): - The parking ended up having to park on road side
- Ian (8/5): -
- Sabrina (8/5): Super Lage - Problemloser Check-in, Parkplätze verfügbar. Küchenstühle mit Geschirr nutzbar. Stühle und Tisch vor dem Zimmer. Wie nahezu überall in Neuseeland sehr wenige Ablageflächen für Kleidung.
- Sharmaine (9/5): - Great location, clean and friendly staff.
- J-Br. (10/5): Sehr gute Unterkunft in Taupo. - Sehr schöne Anlage in super Lage. Unser Appartment war groß, hell und ruhig. Küche und Bad waren neu, extra Esstisch, nur die Coutch war sehr durchgesessen. Die Lage im Ort ist ideal. Zum See 3min zu Fuß, in die Innenstadt 10min. Einkauf und Gastronomie ist nicht weit weg, wenngleich nicht direkt nebenan. Die direkte Umgebung ist schön ruhig. Parkplatz kostenlos direkt vor dem Appartment. Jederzeit wieder. Die Coutch war durchgesessen und passte damit nicht zum sonstigen sehr guten Eindruck des Zimmers. Und wenn das Hotel voll belegt ist, scheint es nicht für jedes Appartment einen eigenen Parkplatz am Appartment zu geben. Wer zu spät kommt, muss auf der Straße parken.
- Colin (9/5): - Clean and comfortable Nothing
- Larry (7/5): Pleasant stay no real concerns with the accommodation - Handy to shops and walks. Quiet at night Fridge could have been de-iced before we arrived
- ODILE (9/5): -
- Brian (8/5): -
- KelvinZ (10/5): Very good - Good location off the main street, nice and quiet also not far from the lake or town center The parking lot is tooo small
- Shiree (3/5): Disappointed. - Location was ok. It was old and not very clean! Could get a lot more for your money.
The photos on the booking.com website do not show it’s true state.
- Marlea (8/5): - Very friendly staff Parking is quite tight
- Andrew (9/5): -
- Kathy (8/5): Lake stay - Location was good. Near the lake. Short drive to town. Friendly staff comfortable unit
- Felicia (9/5): - Great location. Friendly staff.
- Aparajith (9/5): -
- James (7/5): Suited my needs for a work trip - Price and location Room was probably a little small
- JOhn (9/5): Just what we wanted - Neat, clean, great service, and great value for money.
- Brian (8/5): - Very comfortable bed. However there was a large chair next to the bed which a side table would have been better.water pressure in the shower could be stronger. Water pressure could have been stronger.
- Marky KAY (4/5): Disappointing - The large bed, the WIFI speed. Speaking only from the room number 2 of this hotel. Staying here was a little disappointing especially for the price, unfortunately no pay wave feature is available at this hotel to pay with tap n go, the room wasn’t really well set out and appears that most of the furniture has been handed down from other hotels. The bathroom was tiny, with the smallest sink and a large 2 foot step up into the shower and the toilet was located in what I’d describe is placed in a closet. The bed comfortable and very large. Noticed cobwebs and a spider in the corner of the room. Parking is very tight at this location.
- Renee (8/5): -
- Emily (4/5): It was okay watch out for rooms 9, 10, 11 October 2025 - The location was good easily walkable into town and could see the lake from the hotel We got put in a room where the staff member openly knew that there was a hot water issue and he said that it had been like it for a couple weeks unsure why he hadn’t had someone out there to fix it so we were unable to have any hot water which was very disappointing.
