Close to River for fishing. Not far from Taupō. As the property is ageing the maintenance is a little behind but the new owners are trying hard. Some training in Hospitality wouldn’t go astray. Otherwise I shall continue to frequent The Turangi Bridge Motel.

Liked: Room comfort
We chose this motel for its proximity to Tongariro National Park. It is rather old and worn in terms of furniture and kitchen/bath fixtures, but it had everything we needed, and there were a few unexpected extras like a fan (no AC), hair dryer, and heated mattress pad (did not use). Was also convenient to town about 1/3 mi away. Screens would have been nice in the windows, and parking lot is very tight (painted lines might help) with people randomly parking poorly. The restaurant was not open during our stay. There is a small hut right outside the parking lot available for coffee/breakfast but we left before 7 am when they opened each day.
