Overall a good place to stay in Taupo and I would recommend it. We stayed two nights and the staff was friendly. The room was very spacious and had a nice little kitchenette. The bed was comfy and the bathroom was great as well. The hotel location was good for us, but isn't particularly close to the shops and restaurants... More

I have regular stays in hotels and motels in both New Zealand and internationally and I found the customer service and comfort that I have received at the Comfort Inn Cascade to be top notch. One can not fault the personal treatment that the owners lavish on their guests with every effort made to accomodate my picky eating habits and... More

Stayed here 1 night in a family room which was changed from a studio when we said we would like to bring our dog with us. We had to pay extra for the room, plus extra for having our dog which made it quite an expensive stay whereas we have stayed in other dog friendly hotels and you pay the... More

Hi Ev-Court, thank you for your review and so glad you were nice and warm and had a comfy bed. Unfortunately we only take small dogs strictly by prior-arrangement as we only have a couple of units that have suitable gardens off them. Our studio rooms are not suitable for pets and this does make it more expensive but the... More

We had booked a 'mountain view apartment' but were upgraded to be next to the rest of our family who were staying as well which was a nice thought on the part of the owner. The weather was dreadful so we saw the place in the worst possible light which maybe tainted our view slightly. The apartment was clean, comfortable... More

Stayed for 3 nights over ANZAC weekend. Comfortable and quiet place with lake front walkway access. Rooms are clean and set back from main highway so reduces any road noise. Good provider of information on local attractions and actively involved in and encourage recyling

We stayed 1 night only on our way to Wellington, 2 adults and 2 children, very coomfortable and a marvellous mezzanine floor for the children to be away from their grandparents. Well appointed, very clean, friendly hosts, delicious breakfast and a marvellous position near the lake. Unfortunately, could only stay overnight. Would certainly choose to stay here again.
