Very nice stay in this relaxed, easy hotel. In a great location overlooking the lake, even though on the other side of the road, meant that it was quiet and relaxed but you could easily get into the centre of town, even by pleasantly walking along the edge of the lake...quite a way..maybe 4omins but very nice by the lake,...

I stayed here for one night in January 2012 as part of a tour. I was in a triple room with 3 single beds. The beds very very comfortable and even though there were 3 beds in the room it was still VERY spacious!! There was a small desk and flat screen TV with free-view channels, also tea and coffee...

We booked a package, which included breakfast. It was the best, non-greasy tasty, bacon, eggs, tomatoes, hash browns etc etc, we've had in a LONG time. Was just what the cyclist who rode 100km from Rotorua to Taupo, needed. Rooms were very nice and woke to a million dollar view of Lake Taupo. Spa pool was lovely on the weary... More

Pretty good middle of the road motel style hotel. Room was clean and tidy, bathroom looked brand new and a great flat screen TV. No noise from adjoining rooms and set back from the road so no traffic noise either. Breakfast was the usual hot buffet you get in a million other hotels, nothing noteworthy. Great friendly staff on the... More

Having stayed here b4, it was lovely to see how well refurbed it was. 3 of us in a room with only one shampoo but that's nothing. Beds were comfy, facilities good, enjoyed the pool and spa. Well priced, would be happy to stay again and certainly happy to recommend.

I stayed here while on a tour of New Zealand. The rooms were more than adequate for the group of us in the room. It looked as if the hotel had undergone renovations as the bathrooms were very nice and the room was in very good condition (flat screen TV as well). They have hot tubs on site as well,... More

Located across the road from the largest lake in New Zealand, Lakeland Resort is a place where one goes only when on a budget. Not all the rooms offer the views of the lake and are also not well lit. Infact you can hear people from the neighbouring rooms of all their activities which was quite disappointing. Not much to... More

A disappointing hotel in a dull town. The rooms were clean and that's about all one can say about the place. Its supposedly recently been refurbished, but the rooms are dark and equipped with an oversized TV that may be intended to compensate for the dull decor. The plumbing (in our room at least) was eccentric too. Breakfast was not... More

What a hidden gem this place is. With a "special" room rate of NZ$99 per night, we weren't expecting much but as we approached the impressive reception area, things were hopeful. As we entered our room, we were ecstatic to find a modern, clean, fresh room with a huge plasma TV on the wall, and a "new" feeling to it.... More
