Hilton Lake Taupo

The old part of the hotel is beautiful and we were there for dinner, drinks and breakfast. The bedrooms are in a new (purpose built) block to the side. We were in a ground floor room (handy for the pool). It was a good size, and we had a patio outside (rooms above have balconies) and it was all lovely, a very good standard and very clean. The pool, jacussi and gym were lovely and opening hours were good. Restaurant served food for us at about 9pm, (local restaurants don't stay open late in winter). There was good parking underneath the hotel, and the staff were v helpful.

The staff at Hilton Lake Taupo were absolutely amazing, especially the lovely Filipinas at the front desk. They really went the extra mile to make sure our stay was super comfortable and enjoyable. The rooms were nice and roomy, and we had our own balconies with stunning views of either the lake or the hotel pool.

The staff were very welcoming and accommodating. We were able to check in early and they also made it possible for us to join the restaurant for dinner even though we didn't book on a busy long weekend (rookie mistake). I also rate the pool area and gym facilities (which can be pretty poor at hotels).

Our stay at Hilton Lake Taupo was an absolute delight. Accompanied by my wife and daughter, we were all captivated by the outstanding experience. The hotel's pristine environment, exceptional cleanliness, and outstanding service from the staff left us truly impressed. We must extend a special mention to Assistant Front Office Manager Swapnil Jagdale, whose exceptional service stood out, along with his dedicated team. Dining at the hotel was a culinary journey, with delectable food offerings that pleased our palates. This visit held special significance as we were celebrating our daughter's 7th birthday, and Hilton Lake Taupo made it a truly memorable occasion. Our daughter's favorite highlight was undoubtedly the heated swimming pool, where she had endless fun. We eagerly look forward to returning to this wonderful retreat in the near future.

Beautiful property and friendly staff. We had a one bedroom apartment style room and this was incredibly spacious for our family during the stay and something we were impressed by. Wi-Fi worked well. We used the sauna during our stay and that was good. Breakfast had a broad range of options. Not too far located outside of the centre of town, but we had a car and would not recommend for those without a mode of transport.
