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.
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.

Horrible service at the new world.
Horrible service at the new world.
Will never set foot in the turangi tavern ever again, never felt so unwelcome in my life, I lasted less than 90 seconds before walking out.
Highly recommend the hare and copper.
Nice quiet location. Large apartment with kitchen, friendly and helpful staff. It's a short walk to lovely river views, and if you're there for fishing, it's the perfect stop. There is a laundry room onsite, which is always helpful when traveling for a month. Very close proximity to a New World supermarket. (The first time you visit a New World market in New Zealand, ask for a tourist membership card, no sign-up required. It will save you money every time you shop.)
Lovely older style motel that has been well looked after.Facilities you might need were all there available.The motel is well laid out with colourful flowers in the garden areas.The lawn area is lovely to sit or for children to play on sunny days.Everything was clean and worked well in the motel.The beds were very comfortable.The motel is handy to Turangi shopping centre and there is a pizza cafe which has other meals on its menu just over the road.
Spacious and clean holiday home located about midway between Taupo and Mt Ruapehu/Tongariro. Has all the facilities you need including a great kitchen and cooking equipment. Heat pumps kept us very warm. Highly recommended for your winter ski trip or summer Tongariro hike. Hosts were very responsive and attentive as they turned on our heat pumps before our arrival.
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.
The apartment we were in was lovely light and spacious.The reception staff member went out of her way to find an apartment with better TV reception which was very much appreciated.Everything was clean and tidy with necessay facilities available.Both the bed and couch were comfortable.The motel is within walking distance to Turangi shopping centre.
Great comfortable motel, amazing hot pools - overall a great stay. Very kind staff, they checked in on us and our one injured rider, let us use the carports for our motorcycles, and told us to dry our gear in a separate room. Will definitely stay here if we pass through again!
Good stay with my 5 yr old daughter. Opportunity to see plenty of animals Emu llamas pigs Donkey etc and use of hot pools. Also natural hot stream with small skin nibbling fish - ticklish. Good value for money and helpful pleasant staff. Short drive from centre of Turangi.
Great value for money. Nice thermal pools. Special trailer boat parking space. Loads of room to practice fly fishing. Comfy beds. Location is handy to Turangi and only about 40 minutes from Taupo. Great to see progressive reinvestment in the premises. We'll be back again.
The executive lodge was really big, plenty of room for the 4 of us. It was exactly what we wanted, with facilities to cook our own meals and a big living room to lounge in. Washing machine was useful too considering we were half way into a 2 week trip around New Zealand.
The owner is an absolute sweetheart always trying to help and connect everybody.
The most social and friendly hostel I've been to so far here in New Zealand. I liked it a lot because it's small with not too many people (but enough to meet others).
I'd always come back!
Excellent place to stay with family. If you don’t mind staying away from little further from town than this place is great. Turangi town was not that far tho. Taupo 45mins drive and Whakapapa about 50 mins drive. Basically you are staying at one end of Taupo lake.
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.
We had a great stay, very private and quiet. The continental breakfast was an added bonus.
Very friendly hosts and we would definitely stay again.
We highly recommend Tongariro Lodge for dinner. Great food and it's only a few hundred metres away
Amazing stay at Rainbow Motel. Clean, spacious space. Friendly and down to earth service. Mineral pools were so relaxing and are open 24/7. I am a young woman travelling alone and I felt very safe and comfortable. Thanks so much.
The location is a bit remote, but it provides a great relaxing and tranquil atmosphere.
The views from the cabin were fantastic - amazing vista of the lake Taupo from the top of the hill!
The room was spacious and comfortable.
Nice rooms but the defining thing about this motel is the staff. They are excellent from the owner to the housekeeping staff. Nothing was too much trouble. This is our go to place in turangi.
We were only booked for one night and as we were visiting for a family funeral we hardly spent anytime at the Motel except to sleep. Unfortunately we didn't have time to eat at the restaurant.
