J’ai passé une nuit au Adventure Taupō Hostel et je peux dire que c’est l’un des meilleurs hostels dans lesquels j’ai séjourné.
L’établissement est flambant neuf, ce qui se ressent partout : tout est ultra moderne, impeccable et parfaitement entretenu. L’accueil a été excellent, avec un personnel très sympathique, souriant et toujours prêt à aider.
La cuisine est tout simplement exceptionnelle. C’est probablement la cuisine de backpackers la mieux équipée que j’aie vue : très propre, immense, avec énormément d’espace de rangement et tout le matériel nécessaire.
Le salon commun est lui aussi très agréable, parfait pour rencontrer et échanger avec d’autres voyageurs.
Les chambres sont modernes et très bien pensées, avec notamment des prises USB-C directement à disposition pour recharger ses appareils, un détail très apprécié.
Franchement, c’est un sans-faute. Pour le rapport qualité-prix, difficile de faire mieux. Je recommande cet hostel à 100 % à tous ceux qui passent par Taupō.
As far as hostels go this was the nicest. The beds are wooden and sturdy, not the thin metal frames that rock when someone is sleeping above you. The plugs are next to you same with a light and curtain.
Staff were friendly and happy to give food recommendations on the area, they even had a binder you could look through for it.
Kitchen was wide and easy to access/use. Bathrooms were clean.
Location was like a 10-15 min walk to the water. Free parking on street.
A hostel with very friendly and welcoming staff. The room was ok, in line with the description and photos. They have large available kitchen for guests, and also room for chilling out.
20 minutes drive from parking where you can get bus at the start of Tongariro Alpine crossing hike.
We had a wonderful stay at the hostel. The staff were very friendly and gave us a thorough introduction to the hostel, including its lovely animal residents, like baby lambs, deer, pig, and horse. A highlight of my stay was the chance to feed the baby lamb, which was a truly memorable experience! The facilities are basic, but everything is in good working order and covers the essentials. The bedding was clean, and they provided a clear wall guide on how to set it up, which was helpful and a nice touch. Overall, it was a cozy, enjoyable stay, and we would definitely recommend it to others!

Very Good
FFluffyTotoroI arrived in Taupo on the morning Air NZ flight from AKL, upon arrival at the Chevron Motel, 4 hours before the published check-in time, I had planned to ask to have my luggage stored while I go about other business. The receptionist kindly asked me to wait while she checked to see if my room was ready, and if so, I could have my room right away. Lucky for me it was, I was very pleased with the initiative and flexibility offered. My booking included a living area with dining table, kitchen, sofa, spare single bed, a separate bedroom, and a dedicated parking space. My stay of 5 nights was very comfortable, and I will definitely use this motel again on my next visit. I would like to offer a few suggestions for improvements, first - a split type AC unit was present in the living room, it would be great if there could be a second unit installed in the bedroom. Internet connectivity, available 24/7, while adequate, did have limited bandwidth affecting video streaming from Netflix/YouTube etc. Lastly, it would be great if the TV provided in the living room had a larger screen. In summary, I was very pleased with my stay at the Chevron Motel, the room offered great value for money, and I was completely relaxed and comfortable during my stay.
GGuest UserWe stayed as a family of 4 the rooms were emaculately clean, the beds were beautiful and very generous sizing, local milk in beauitful glass bottles connecting the local rural communiy was a great touch.All appliances were new and whisper quiet, which meant we all slept very well. Glenys gave us plenty of advice on where to take the children, local hot pools were a hit and the domain next door with playground gardens and basket ball courts for free family fun, the exploding geyser was great entertainment, very handy location to all the walking tracks up mt Te aroha, supermarket and shops easy walking distance from motel.
The service was second to none.
Rod and Glenys were amazing hosts who went above and beyond to make sure we all had the best stay.
We had car trouble, and they opened their garage and time to help us get back on the road forever grateful.Truely, beautiful caring people.
We will be back again soon and have told all our friends and family of our new favorite motel
NNurhayati NGreat location—right in the city, convenient for getting around, with everything you need nearby. The room was spacious and stayed warm during winter. Towels, full bathroom amenities, plus tea and milk were provided.
Jjjx1102The room is small but clean, especially the bathroom is very good and has plenty of hot water. Staying in Turangi is the TAC line that crosses Tongariro for one day, which is close to the parking lot at the end point. The enthusiastic and thoughtful host helped arrange a vehicle to take us to the starting point of the hike, allowing us to have a perfect one-day hike. Thank you very much, and we will stay here again when we have the opportunity. The landlord is a Chinese and has easy communication. He also hopes that more compatriots will come to climb the mountain.
GGuest UserWhen l arrived at the Motel l found out that when l was doing the booking l should have taken note that there is no reception on site.When l rang the purported site the call was not a friendly one.I took an uber to collect the keys .And soon as l opened the door to my room which was room 9 l was discombobulated.It appeared no house keeping had been done prior to my moving in.The bins were all full of rubbish.The bedding had not been changed .Two McDonald’s empty drinks by the sink area.Two cups and a spoon in the sink see photos.I was then moved to room 7 which appeared to be clean but that inconvenience made me enraged😡
Rreturn visitorA tiny motel, has basic amenities. Didn't know there's a communal kitchen until we were leaving.
It's a good stop over point, but most of the town closes either early or has long weekends, so make sure you have supplies beforehand. When we arrived there there was no reception, had a number and person to ring, the entrance is a bit tricky ”around the back”...yep that's exactly what it is.
GGuest UserHygate Motel offers a quiet and clean environment that made for a comfortable stay. The room was spacious and well-maintained, with all the basic amenities conveniently provided. The bed was especially comfortable, and the location was close to shops and cafes. There was also ample parking space, which made everything more convenient. Overall, a highly satisfying experience for the price.

GGuest UserSeriously impressed by this little inn: spacious living room; beautiful view of the lake (Room 15); bathroom with a hot tub; well-equipped kitchen with cooking facilities, plates, cutleries and even salt and pepper; one balcony attached to each bedroom; two TVs. Check-in and check-out were smooth and took less than a minute, with no questions asked. Better than many 5 star hotels in terms of the facilities and space one gets.
Possible improvements: spider webs can be removed from the balconies; a net can be installed so that insects don't crawl in when doors or Windows are opened.
YYUEBecause of the epidemic, the prices are so cheap. This time is suitable for going out. There are not many guests in the motel, so you don’t have to worry about disturbing others at night. The spa is very spacious and comfortable. I brought my own wine to the past. The overall feeling is very good. it is good
