The Lake is a stylish 'retro' motel, well placed for the centre of Taupo or visiting Tongariro NP and Wai-o-tapu Thermal Wonderland. We were 2 people staying 2 nights and found the apartment spacious and comfortable. Di welcomed us on arrival and was very helpful in suggesting local places to visit and eat. We enjoyed a soak in the pools at Waikeri Terraces.
