Colonial Lodge Motel

Colonial Lodge Motel is a 12-room motel on Lake Terrace in Taupō, situated opposite the town's main swimming beach and around 1.3 kilometres from the Taupō town centre, with a waterfront walking route to shops, restaurants and the nightlife area.

The property offers a mix of one-bedroom apartments, family apartments, spa studios and family studios, each self-contained with kitchen facilities suited to both short leisure stays and longer visits.

As a small motel, Colonial Lodge does not provide dedicated conference or meeting facilities on site, so it functions primarily as accommodation — a practical, self-contained base for individual travellers or small groups, including delegates attending conferences or events elsewhere in Taupō. See Taupō venues for dedicated function and meeting spaces in the district.

The property has previously displayed a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence. No further ownership history or recent awards were identified.
