Just three and a half hours by car from Auckland, and four from Wellington, Taupō makes the ideal stop on a driving holiday, or destination for a short or long escape. Many motels are within walking distance of the town centre and provide comfortable, spacious self-contained facilities.
Kick back with the kids and enjoy a BBQ dinner poolside, sit on the balcony with a glass of wine and watch the sun set over the lake, or take an evening soak in the spa pool at one of Taupō’s many affordable and family-friendly motels.
