About Great Lake Motel

Great Lake Motel is at 56 Lake Terrace, on the lakefront and immediately opposite Lake Taupō. The motel has 15 self-contained units with a listed maximum capacity of 50 guests, and describes itself as the closest motel to the town centre — the shops, cafés and restaurants are roughly 100 metres away.

Units

  • Studio Units — queen and single bed, sleeping 2–3. Large bathroom with a two-person spa bath, separate shower, and kitchen.
  • One Bedroom Units — sleeping 2–4, in two configurations: queen in the bedroom with two singles in the lounge, or two singles in the bedroom with a queen in the lounge. Kitchen and bathroom with shower.

All units are serviced daily and include free fibre broadband WiFi, heat pumps and air conditioning, a 40-inch smart TV with Sky Sport channels, microwave, fridge and electric hob, dining area, hairdryer, iron and ironing board, electric blankets and a heated towel rail.

Shared facilities include a guest laundry, ample off-street parking, cots and highchairs on request, and breakfast available. Usefully for business travellers, the motel also offers photocopying and scanning at reception. Note that a credit card surcharge applies.

Meetings and events

Great Lake Motel does not have a conference or meeting room. It functions as delegate and crew accommodation for conferences, sporting events and functions held elsewhere in Taupō. With 15 units and capacity for around 50 people, it can take a small block booking, and the walk-everywhere location means groups can reach town-centre venues without transport.

Location

The town centre is about 100 metres away and the Taupō i-SITE roughly 600 metres. The Hole in One Challenge on the lakefront is about 20 metres from the door, and Taupō Airport is around 7km. Huka Falls, the Wairakei geothermal attractions and the Great Lake Trails are all within easy driving distance for delegate free time or team activities.

One of the most central lakefront options in Taupō, and a sensible pick for business travellers and event delegates who want to walk to town-centre venues and eateries. See more Taupō accommodation.
