Accommodation
Accommodation can be arranged in the many Motel/Hotel complexes within the tourist town of Taupo. Farmstays are also very popular and add a new dimension to overseas visitors enjoying their stay within New Zealand.
Accommodation can be arranged to suit all, the choice is wide, from luxury lodges to backpackers. A very popular choice is a modern motel unit on the shores of Lake Taupo within a very short walking distance of many interesting restaurants and the town shopping centre.
Day trips are the most popular option particularly if a non fishing partner accompanies the angler. Taupo is a well known tourist destination with a population of 20,000 people and many non fishing activities such as golf (5 golf courses), sight seeing, boating, garden tours and, of course, shopping, are readily available.
Paddy recommends Absolute Lake View Motel when staying in Taupo.
