    The hot pools were the highlight of our stay, providing a super relaxing experience. We loved being able to soak in the hot water and enjoy the beautiful views. The cleanliness of the rooms was impressive, with snow white beddings and towels. The hosts were friendly and gave us a detailed introduction to the facilities. The kitchenware looked new and the bathroom was spacious enough. Sleeping in was a breeze thanks to the comfortable beds and peaceful atmosphere.

    The decor felt outdated and could use some refreshing. the thin walls made it difficult to escape the noise from neighboring rooms.

    The location was great and amazing for traveling around Turangi, very close to the mountains and Turangi shops. Both rooms we booked were huge and large with a bedside table, bathroom plus good cooking facilities.

    Lovely little hotel in a beautiful quiet area near ski fields, and national parks. Amazing service, amazingly friendly staff. A great-sized and newly renovated and reasonably priced room in the 2nd bedroom.

    The 24 hour access to the spa pools was the highlight of our stay at Rainbow Motel. We had a great soak after a long drive and got to enjoy the stunning view of the stars. The rooms were spacious, cute, and retro with comfortable beds for a great sleep. The hosts, Ann and Bob, were incredibly friendly and helpful in making our stay enjoyable. we had a cozy and clean experience. I definitely recommend this hotel.

    The pool area was amazing and the location was great and awesome, adjacent to Taupo, and Tongariro national park. Furthermore, down from the mountain.

    The value for money at this hotel was outstanding. The room rate was very reasonable, especially considering the access to the fantastic hot pools. The staff were lovely and remembered us from our previous visit, which made us feel very welcome. The location of the hotel was perfect - close enough to the township and Tongariro National Park, but in a beautiful and quiet area. The rooms, separate bedroom and basic amenities were all impressive. The photos didn't do justice to the updated and modern look of the rooms. The attention to detail, such as the thin curtains, added a nice touch.

    All was perfect.

    We loved our stay here! The hotel had very clean and comfortable rooms, and the private hot pools were amazing after a long day tramping. Additionally, this hotel is in a great location close to ski fields and surrounded by beautiful forest scenery. The staff were also very friendly and helpful.

    Everything was fantastic.

    I recently stayed at a charming motel with stunning hot pools, after a vigorous trek in a national park. The closeness of the motel to the town center and supermarket was a real treat, and the retro furnishings in the room were fascinating. The room was clean and spacious, with comfortable bedding and fresh towels. the management service was friendly and hospitable; we were given a warm welcome and an introduction to the facilities. the hot pools, the motel had other highlights, such as good pressure in the shower and a clean bathroom.

    We were pleasantly surprised by the value for money at this hotel. The prices were very reasonable, especially considering the updated rooms which were much nicer than the photos indicated. The kitchen facilities were well-equipped and allowed us to prepare our own meals. Additionally, the location was convenient, with a supermarket nearby and easy access to the hot pools after a day of tramping in Tongariro National Park.

    All was good, nothing to improve.

    Cozy beds and a peaceful location were a plus for this budget hotel. The hot pools were warm and helped us relax after a long day exploring the city. We also appreciated the friendly and helpful staff who provided us with useful information about the area.

    The lack of cleanliness and maintenance issues detracted from our overall experience. The room could have used a bit more attention to detail, including dusting and restocking soap in the shower.

    This hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. The attention to detail was remarkable, from the modern and clean rooms to the large enclosed shower. The separate bedroom was very updated, with thin curtains that let in just the right amount of light. The staff was friendly and accommodating, showing us around the hotel grounds and ensuring we had everything we needed. The location was also convenient, with easy access to the nearby shopping center and attractions. We were pleasantly surprised by the value for money and would definitely stay here again for the breakfast and round-the-clock hot pools.

    All was perfect, nothing to improve.

    I appreciated the affordable price of my accommodation. The room was spacious and tidy. , the hot pools were a great bonus after a long day working. It was nice to have the choice between open-air pools and covered ones. The location was also convenient, as I was able to find good eating options nearby.

    The hot pools were not as hot as I expected and could have been. The lack of towels was also a bit inconvenient.

    We recently stayed at a charming motel with cozy rooms and a lovely thermal pool. The retro decor and spaciousness of our unit were delightful. The bed was incredibly comfortable, providing a great night's sleep. The highlight was definitely the private thermal pools, perfect for unwinding after a long drive. Although the motel is not flashy, it exudes a homely and comfortable atmosphere. The reasonable room rate was an added bonus. I highly recommend this delightful motel.
