Berkenhoff Lodge Reviews

bed and pillow to hard

Cockroaches in our room and sand in the beds. Pretty yuck.

We enjoyed a double bed private room with ensuite at this hostel which is quite rare to find in NZ. The place is large and old but clean and with OK facilities. Loved the pool tables in the bar area but it was a shame the bar wasn't open at all when we were there. In fact, there seemed to be only a handful of people staying there which was very unusual for such a large place. It's not that close to town although if you don't mind walking it's only a 15 - 20 minute walk.

The reception staff was very helpful and provided a great service

Great, friendly and very helpful staff / owner. Clean bedroom and common areas. Only one problem : thin walls with loud guests.

my room was clean including tensuite toilet-staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble-allowing me to stay an extra couple of hours before my bus and offering free transport to the bus-i'll be back

really nice place, pretty far from town though, clean. helpful friendly staff. i beleive that this place can be quite a laugh when fill.

Staff were excellent. Really friendly and couldn't be more helpful. Really easy going place. About a 15 min walk into Taupo central district where all of the bars, cafes, shops etc are.
