Top Taupō Central Hotel Reviews

Beechtree Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Beechtree Motel provided us with a large room, king size bed, spa bath and bathroom, and a kitchenette, which were all very clean. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. We were allocated a room on the top floor which gave us lake views. We would happily book this reasonably priced accommodation if we travelled to Taupō again."
