Easy check-in, staff are easily contactable. If you are arriving after front desk hours, just give them a call. Easily instructions will be given.
Room is spacious. TV has the lodge's netflix account, so you may want to check in early :))
Only concern is door lock is one-way, recommend owner to consider better locks since right outside of the room door is the car park.
The motel was in a good location.
All of Whitianga's restaurants and a cinema were within walking distance.
Unfortunately, no air conditioning.
The room was very large with a separate bedroom and living room. There was an additional bed in the living room. However, the bedroom only had a small window, which I found very odd.
The small kitchen was quite practical.
The front desk lady was very nice. We had two rooms to choose from. There is a farm around, with goats, sheep, cows, ostriches, and a pig. One star is given to the pig, who was super friendly and purred as soon as we met. It is a good choice for those who want to see the caves but don't want to drive too far. The only drawback is that there are all kinds of insects in the room. You can only pretend to be blind as there are too many to kill.
Room is clean, tidy and spacious. Nice to have a balcony but it is by the side of road. A private kitchen or kitchenette is not included but there is a large common kitchen in the 2/F. Like most hotels or motels there, there is nobody in the reception counter from 8:40 pm to 10 am next day. Good to have free undercover on-site parking.
Booked in a superior suite (spa). Room facilities are very new, with multiple beds (one double bed and two single beds), with a child for another $25 per person per night. Easy to book, kitchen utensils, air conditioning. The hotel is conveniently located on the outskirts of the town, a few minutes drive from the town centre, with gas stations, Four Square and restaurants.
The room is small but clean, especially the bathroom is very good and has plenty of hot water. Staying in Turangi is the TAC line that crosses Tongariro for one day, which is close to the parking lot at the end point. The enthusiastic and thoughtful host helped arrange a vehicle to take us to the starting point of the hike, allowing us to have a perfect one-day hike. Thank you very much, and we will stay here again when we have the opportunity. The landlord is a Chinese and has easy communication. He also hopes that more compatriots will come to climb the mountain.

Hygate Motel offers a quiet and clean environment that made for a comfortable stay. The room was spacious and well-maintained, with all the basic amenities conveniently provided. The bed was especially comfortable, and the location was close to shops and cafes. There was also ample parking space, which made everything more convenient. Overall, a highly satisfying experience for the price.
It's a small and neat motel. The man at the front desk is very nice. There is WIFI, a microwave and an electric hot pot. There are also many restaurants near the lake. I will stay here next time I come to Taupo.

Great
GGuest UserWe stayed as a family of 4 the rooms were emaculately clean, the beds were beautiful and very generous sizing, local milk in beauitful glass bottles connecting the local rural communiy was a great touch.All appliances were new and whisper quiet, which meant we all slept very well. Glenys gave us plenty of advice on where to take the children, local hot pools were a hit and the domain next door with playground gardens and basket ball courts for free family fun, the exploding geyser was great entertainment, very handy location to all the walking tracks up mt Te aroha, supermarket and shops easy walking distance from motel.
The service was second to none.
Rod and Glenys were amazing hosts who went above and beyond to make sure we all had the best stay.
We had car trouble, and they opened their garage and time to help us get back on the road forever grateful.Truely, beautiful caring people.
We will be back again soon and have told all our friends and family of our new favorite motel
Rreturn visitorA tiny motel, has basic amenities. Didn't know there's a communal kitchen until we were leaving.
It's a good stop over point, but most of the town closes either early or has long weekends, so make sure you have supplies beforehand. When we arrived there there was no reception, had a number and person to ring, the entrance is a bit tricky ”around the back”...yep that's exactly what it is.

GGuest UserVery satisfactory experience. Clean, comfortable, everything we needed. Warm, friendly welcome, great guest book with good tips! We will definitely be back! Highly recommended.
GGuest UserThe public area is clean, the location is not far from the central area, and it is very convenient for self-driving tours. The basic facilities are simple but neat and clean. It is very comfortable in autumn, and it may be a bit hot in summer because there is no air conditioning in the room. Overall, I am very satisfied. 
GGuest UserI reserved an apartment with a sofa bed, and the room was far brighter and more spacious than the photos suggested. It was clean and roomy, with a pleasant balcony furnished with chairs, and parking was readily available. The location was convenient, near shops and a short walk or drive from the beach and supermarket. The only drawback was that noisy neighbors arriving late at night in large groups disturbed our sleep with their shouting. Despite this, it was the best accommodation we encountered during our trip.
GGuest UserMy stay at Alcamo Motel was overall pleasant. The staff were friendly and the check-in and check-out process was smooth. The location is convenient, close to the city center of Hamilton, with plenty of parking available. However, the facilities felt a bit outdated, which was slightly disappointing. With some renovations, this place could definitely attract even more guests. Overall, a decent stay for the price.
Rreturn visitorAdequate little motel. Clean and as much as advertised. No flash but sufficient for a night's stay. The single beds were curtained off from the Queen bed. The bathroom and toilet were separate and able to be used separately. The TV was too small for the room, no sink to wash up the plates and cutlery supplied. The motel has seen better days, but worth the tariff.
AAlice BunGreat hotel stay with complete amenities for self cook dinner, located by the lake front with breathtaking sunset set view! And we have new pets for the day, cutie cat welcome us to Accent!
Overall is great except for the insulation around the house not strong enough as it can be quite cold during night ….
Highly recommended for families and groups of friends enjoy the stay here.
