    It's a great stopover location say between Auckland and Wellington but it's hard to find good food and the prices e.g. food and petrol reflect a lack of true competition and a feeling "well, you've got little choice"

    A comfortable apartment with great views over Lake Taupo.

    A comfortable apartment with great views over Lake Taupo. We stayed two nights and used it as our base for doing the Tongariro Alpine Crossing, so it was perfect for that. Oreti Resort is about 14km from Turangi, so you definitely need a car for eating out etc.

    We found plenty to do in our 3 day stay.

    We found plenty to do in our 3 day stay. We popped up to Taupo and went to Orakei korako. Then to beautiful lake Rotopounamu and walked around that. And did the picturesque river walk. We hired a rental car so we could look around easily. We could have easily filled in a whole week.

    Central to some wonderful activities such as great rafting, the walk Tongariro crossing, Ruapehu. 'Up market' accommodation is very limited but if you can get into the Tongariro Lodge, it is excellent. Worth the extra cost. The locals are helpful and the town has a nice relaxed non-touristy feel; however avoid leaving your car parked overnight on a street. Shopping, apart from Groceries is limited.

    Turangi is a lovely little town.

    Turangi is a lovely little town. Not much going on in the actual town itself but has everything you need in terms of supermarkets etc. and easy access to the Tongariro Crossing and lots of other beautiful walks nearby. Recommend the Tongariro River Walk and Lake Rotopounamu walk too. Lovely swimming spots! I stayed for 4 nights in the end which was great. Recommend staying here! And also use Panda Shuttles to get to the Tongariro crossing or anywhere in the local area. Stay at Riverstone Lodge if you can!

    The river is outstanding. Plenty of river walks and trails. Easy access to Turoa and Whakapapa ski fields and to Waiouru Army Museum. We ate at the local Hong Kong Takeaway-big servings, fresh food and hot. Turangi is flat-so very easy to get around for walkers, bikers and vehicles. Set up perfectly for people who want to trout fish.

    We had a good stay. The staff was very responsive. We had to call them because we needed support in opening the door and they arrived immediately. They also suggested us some amazing places to visit. There is parking available beside the lodge. The common areas and our room were clean, and the bed was comfortable. You can make yourself a tea or coffee in the kitchen. Because it was Christmas time, the staff prepared a box full of sweets for everyone to share.

    Had to book at the last moment, so didn't have time to fully research the motel. It's an OK place, nothing particularily wrong with the place. A little dated perhaps. The parking for the room I stayed in was odd, as you parked around the back of the room, but the entrance was around the other side. Oh and NO AIR CON!! Great water pressure in the shower and good wi-fi.

    The location is great. Not too far from Turangi for any goods need but quiet enough for a weekend chill. 1 minute walking to Taupo lake, which is beautiful. We had booked the room in the last minute, just on Friday night and visited on Saturday, but everything is more than expect. The motel is not big (~10 rooms I guess so) but the room is very clean and warm.

    Tony's Lodge was a perfect stopover on the drive up from Wellington to Auckland. It's right next to Lake Taupo, so beautiful walks avaliable right around the corner. Only 15 minute drive from Turangi (grocery store and takeaways). Tony is a lovely host, and his pet-friendly accommodation is very clean and tidy.

    You stay under shady trees with marvelous bird song. Pipiwhararoa (shining cuckoos) sang to me as I sat on my deck having a cup of tea. You can walk along the Tongariro River just through the back gate and watch the anglers casting for trout. This is my absolute favourite motel in New Zealand.

    Ideal location virtually in town center. Smooth check in and check out, thank you. Cannot comment on breakfast as there is no restaurant at this facility. Content to stay again, and over the years have holidayed at Turangi Leisure Lodge several times.

    Great views across Lake Taupo and in a secluded quiet location. There were good restaurants nearby (we especially liked Valentino's in Turangi) and wonderful walks all around (the walk around Lake Rotoaira is short but picturesque).

    Great little lodge for people who are in to fishing and being away from the crowds. Would be perfect for a weekend with friends. Loved the individual cabins with central restaurant/bar and reading/meeting area.
