I am unable to find words to descibe the amazing hospitality that was given to us during our stay in Taupo at the Tui Oaks Motor Inn!!! Kitchen, bedrooms and bathrooms very clean and serviced daily. Fantastic views over the Lake if your room is on the lakeside. Very little traffic noise as heavy vehicles nowq use the by pass.

Stayed one night here, we had a room overlooking the lake with views of the mountains in the distance. Although the room was also overlooked the main highway, the traffic noise wasn't a problem for us. Tidy room but getting a little tired, very pleasant staff, and walking distance from bars and restaurants.

As there is now a road for trucks to bypass Taupo, we chose a room with a view of the lake thinking it would be quiet at night. Big mistake as there was still a lot of noise from trucks going through. Our accommodation (lounge area and kitchenette as well as bedroom and bathroom) was OK. Very spacious and clean... More

I was impressed with the couple who run this motel right from the very first email contact to make a booking. Throughout our stay they were very friendly and attentive, even hiding Easter eggs in the unit to the joy of my young children. They provided excellent advice on local activities and managed their way through rowdy young men staying... More

We only stayed here for a night but we had a great time. The hosts are lovely and friendly. Our room was on the third floor and was so light and airy - lovely change for a hotel room. Beds were comfy. Great location. No complaints! I had a peek into one of the pool side rooms and would definitely... More

I would love to give a great review. However despite lovely staff and view, the bed, or more so, the pillows were very uncomfortable. Hard and flat. Neither of us slept well and it made the next day of driving more tiresome than it needed to be. The toilet also blocked up. It didn't become a big issue but made... More

The Tui Oakes is in the heart of Taupo. The room we had was beautiful with views of the lake & mountains. The managers & staff looked after us so well we stayed 3 extra days. It's just a walk to the cafe strip & shops and every where we went we were treated so well. Ian & Liz, we... More

Great place to stay with families. We had booked a studio room and on arrival realised it wasnt quite big enough for us. The manager was very happy to show us around at the other options and we are glad she did. We upgraded to a studio room which was PERFECT. Great amenities, great location, very clean and tidy.
