Guest Reviews

• Aish (10/5): - Everything Holiday was too short
• Penny (7/5): -
• Lisa (8/5): -
• Deb (6/5): - Bed was very comfortable
• Michelle (9/5): Very Pleasant - Room had everything we needed for an over night stay, very comfortable, easy access.
• Eleanor (8/5): -
• Kynan (7/5): We had a great time staying here - Good location and had everything you needed Maybe a little pricy considering but overall no complaints
• Sarah (9/5): Perfect for work stay - Comfortable and quiet
• Gracie (9/5): -
• Helen (9/5): Perfect place for a short stay - Nice clean rooms, great location Nothing
• Anna (8/5): Great stay for weekend away - Great location, was nice and quiet The rooms had no opening windows and it smelt a bit
• Billaricky (5/5): -
• Faaris (10/5): -
• Lili (10/5): - Standard of facilities and location
• Brooke (9/5): -
• Karen (8/5): -
• Joanna (8/5): We will be back. - The room had so many amenities. The full sized fridge was a plus. Very clean and tidy facility. A great room with a comfy bed. We will be back. Reception on the weekend was open till 4pm. This wasn't communicated with us. It was a fluke that we came across a staff member off duty who let us in. An email or text to tell us reception was closed and how to get our key would have made all the difference.
• Hall (8/5): 2026 Taupō ITM Supercars 440 - Nice recently built motel. Spacious room with cooking and washing facilities. Short stroll to all the shops, cafes and restaurants and lake front. Maybe restrict the volume on the TV as they back on to the beds in next room. Consider a sky sport subscription and remind people upstairs that their noise can travel through the floor to downstairs.
• Sissons (10/5): - Streamline check in
• paul (8/5): -
• Joseph (10/5): - The atmosphere was great and was a reasonable price for the hotel
• Wylliam (9/5): -
• gaye (10/5): - Comfortable rooms Toilet area to small, also vanity was very small nowhere to put your stuff
• Paula (10/5): - Easy after hours check in The quest signage should be illuminated- drove past it 3 times before I found the place - at 11pm at night it’s quite dark on those side streets and if name was lit up on side of building we wills have found easier
• Tom (10/5): My stay was very enjoyable, the room was well worth the price - I liked how the room had all the appliances (dishwasher, washing machine) I liked how large the shower was, and I liked how there were movies that were free to watch. I liked how the curtains were so good I didnt realise it was light out.
• Maryann (7/5): Good - Close and clean Heap pump directly over the bed
• Darshi (10/5): Saved by the on-site Manager's quick thinking. - We arrived in Taupō late and the reception was already closed. After ringing the doorbell, we were told our reservation couldn’t be found. Booking.com showed it as confirmed and paid, but their system had it cancelled — apparently because we cancelled one room, it somehow wiped the entire booking. The onsite manager came down, checked everything, and got straight into action. Even though we were initially told the place was fully booked, he made a few calls and managed to sort us a room for the night. The real win was what happened next — the team reassured us they’d “look after us,” and they actually delivered on that. By the next day, everything was sorted and we didn’t have to move at all. Huge relief, especially over Easter Friday when finding last-minute accommodation would’ve been a nightmare. Aside from that hiccup, the stay itself was great — clean, well-maintained, and comfortable beds. Big credit to the staff for turning a stressful situation into a positive experience. Alls well, would stay again.
• John (8/5): -
• Tim Pihl (9/5): -
• Mary (8/5): -
• Steven (8/5): Enjoyed staying at the hotel the studio unit had everything we required in it. - Walkable to town and great facilities in the room. No opening windows. Shower did not drain away properly
• Selina (5/5): -
• Alex (10/5): Great stay! - Spacious room with great facilities. Staff super friendly and had everything we needed. Would 100% stay again. The washing machine and dryer in the rooms were such a treat after travelling without for 2 weeks. Nothing
• Graham (10/5): -
• Grant (10/5): - All good
• Rochelle (7/5): Was ok - Bathroom wasn't very clean, the sink in the bathroom was a bit blocked took a awhile for the water to drain. Pillows were very thin
• PM (7/5): - Good location, clean & spacious room. Staff very helpful. N/a
• Sue (3/5): Won’t stay again. - On previous stays the accommodation was great but this stay the room was pokey, bed very uncomfortable and the heat pump wouldn’t warm the room even though it was March the room was icy and the bed felt damp. The staff were nice. As stated above room pokey, icy cold as heat pump wouldn’t heat the room and bed felt damp. I have stayed in other Quest Apartments around NZ and this is the worst.
• gaye (9/5): - Nice and close to town, room was nice and roomy. Toilet abit close to wall
• Maura (8/5): - Parking was great - on-site, free and enough for all the rooms. Room and bed was comfortable. Hair dryer, washer and dryer all worked great. Laundry detergent was provided. For anyone planning to do the Tongariro Crossing and taking the shuttle from Taupo, there is a pick up at the hostel across the street which made the 5am pick up easy. There was no dish detergent.
• Viki (9/5): -
• Michael (5/5): -
• Siridawn (8/5): -
• Briana (6/5): would stay again but never in room 101 or ground floor rooms on poolside. - new modern rooms great parking nice area, beds good we were placed in the disabled room 101 on the left of the reception it was really a huge problem as the front door never stops banging when people enter and leave this went on through the night, also there is a loud keypad that is deafening in the still of the night this happened a lot between 2 am and 5 am and needs to be addressed as its really impossible to get any sleep in this room.
• Ryan (10/5): -
• Denis (9/5): Excellent accommodation. Convenient location - Room clean. Bed good size. Walk in shower very good Toilet seat too low for me and my wife. Sink in ensuite blocked. Water trickles when dripping
• Sharon (9/5): A pleasant stay, we will be back. - On arrival we were made to feel welcome, and we even had our luggage carried to our room. Thank you. Perhaps some fresh milk in the fridge for tea and coffee making.
• Darrenwardnz (9/5): -
• Joanne (8/5): Got pit stop - Washing machine! Leaning staff great
• Phil Barlow (10/5): - Lovely unit with very comfortable bed and smiley happy staff
• Gillian (8/5): Very good would stay again - Location , amenities in room . No outdoor seating area, for guests to use
• PAUL (9/5): - Great bed
• Frances (10/5): Had a great stay, clean and tidy and accessible to what we needed without being too noisy. - Staff were awesome and helpful

• 海韬 (10/5): -
• Bob (9/5): -
• Danielle (10/5): - Great place, great location and very spacious
• Isabel (10/5): - Great location, easy to access both by car and walking into town. The staff were incredible and the room really comfortable and well set up. Bed was comfy and we had everything we needed.
• Shannon-Jade (8/5): -
• Annemarie (7/5): A little overpriced for a bsic stay - Clean but basic. Friendly receptionist/manager. Quiet location A little overpriced for one night. Somber bathroom. Heat pump right by the bed and difficult to control.
• Jan (4/5): - Location The smell of the room had to open door to get fresh air from the open outside door
• Adam Ellis (7/5): Good place, comfortable and bed was great - Bed was ultra comfortable. For people who like plush comfy beds, this was the highlight Just the way you check in, Saturday afternoon and the counters closed and you have to call a number. Kills the service off and turns it into a self checkin low cost hotel
• Joyce (8/5): Would stay there again if ever in Taupo - Lakeside view, close to Taupō centre , lake and shops Washing machine and tumble dryer perfect for our needs Staff very helpful when we had a problem with our rental care
• Youngblood (9/5): Very comfortable room, short walk/drive into town. - Very comfortable room, short walk/drive into town.
• james (8/5): -
• John (8/5): -
• PHILIP (8/5): - Comfortable bed, kitchen and washing machine Can’t open the windows, instead there’s a ventilation system that you can’t control and which buzzes all night long
• Vicki (6/5): - It was disappointing to have to stand outside for 15 minutes in the rain waiting for someone to answer the call before we could gain access to the box that contained our room card. I would have thought this information would have been contained in the email that we received the morning of the stay.
• Alberto (10/5): Excelente Opción - Tenía todo lo necesario, incluyendo lavadora y secadora muy útil. Amplio, cerca de todo, aseo diario. Excelente opción. Nada, nos gustó todo.
• Ash (10/5): -
• Robyn (8/5): -
• Vivienne (8/5): Great overnight stay - Great little kitchenette for own breakfast and helpful staff carrying bags up to room Was a slight smell in bathroom,maybe because no window but was a great overnight stay
• Cindy (1/5): Not happy - Stayed here before which is usually good but this time there was a beeping noise every 10 or so minutes - there is no one to contact after the office is closed. The door also kept rattling as if wind was blowing at it - I had the worst sleep ever experienced. I also requested an invoice to be emailed at checkin as my stay was for work purposes and followed up the next day, followed by the next day and still have not received any response. Put off and will not be staying here again. Service and noise
• Fiona (9/5): -
• Murray (8/5): -
• Lynley (9/5): Great place to stay - Walking distance to lake, shops dining out - clean well appointed
• Stephen (8/5): -
• Penny (8/5): -
• Sharon (8/5): -
• Shaun (8/5): -
• Nicholle (7/5): -
• Sheena (7/5): Smells you couldn't ignore - It was clean and quite. It was walking distance to town. There was parking on-site. Staff were friendly. The room was a good size and had everything you needed to cook/heat/store your meals. It was summer when we stayed and the air-conditioning unit was switched on before we arrived which was great after a long drive. Although the room was lovely and clean with fresh linen and towels etc unfortunately the room smelt like a dirty dish cloth (Possibly from the air-conditioning unit)? We used the drier which smelt disgusting. The shower head kept drooping downwards and smelt musty like a drain smell. All things that can be fixed. I notified the staff member (who took notes) as we left. I would stay there again if the smells were sorted.
• Duncan (7/5): - The electrical box was very noisy hard to sleep with the humming
• Steph (5/5): -
• Jin (10/5): -
• John (7/5): In the words of Arnie....I'll be back - Nice bright room. Good appliances. Nice, clean and welcoming. Spacious room. Comfortable lounge suite to relax on. The only thing that really let it down was some long hair in the bathroom sink when I first arrived. Also the floor above was very noisy when people moved - however it did not keep me awake, nor an inconvenience.
• Christine (9/5): Great accomodation in convenient location - Lovely clean modern room. Great location, easy walk to shops, bars and restaurants. Quiet. Comfortable bed and nice quality linen.
• Jasmine (9/5): - Great little place to stop over in Taupo. Lovely staff and great facilities. Generous sized rooms and bathrooms, with everything we needed. Definitely recommend.
• Kevin (9/5): -
• Eleanor (10/5): -
• Mohammed (7/5): - The shower pressure at Room 105 & 110 was low don't know about other rooms
• Karon (9/5): Friendly, helpful staff, good comfortable accommodation - Great, friendly, helpful staff, simple, clean and comfortable. Wasn’t a super great location but still reasonable compared to many others
• Maria (10/5): -
• Emily (9/5): Fantastic and highly recommend to whānau and friends 😊 - N/A It looked a wee bit messy with the junk that was exposed in the end stairwell, otherwise lovely, clean and tidy.
• Kody (10/5): -
• Katie (9/5): All we needed for a relaxing girls weekend away - Clean room/bathroom apart from needing a good dusting. Great to have a little kitchenette.
• Ashleigh (4/5): Disappointed - Location was good The room and facilities were quite dirty. A lot of dust on benches and kitchenware. I was pretty disappointed seeing it was quite expensive to stay for one night.
• Kobe (8/5): Very much enjoyed everything, thank you. - Was very clean, tidy, and well maintained throughout stay. Staff were friendly and helpful. Great, convenient location. My only dislike was that there was no HRV/Ventalation system (apart from a standard bathroom aircon) and windows couldn't be opened; fresh air couldn't really be let in and living-room windows fogged up often.
• Bilie (8/5): 员工友善、位置好、厨房洗衣齐全 - 位置不错 价格再优惠一点
• MELINDA (9/5): Feels like your home away from home. - Home away from home. Compact but with all the facilities you could wish for. Nothing.
