We had 5 wonderful days in the studio at Rive Gauche B&B in February this year. Rive Gauche is a beautiful house in an excellent location, within easy walking distance of Hukka Falls and Taupo, yet very quiet and peaceful. Our hosts, Lynne and Jim, were very welcoming and they provided us with very useful information about places to visit... More

This B&B is in a very new house, located just 3 min drive from Taupo town. It is quiet with nice views on the forest (no lake views, but that is ok). We booked the studio room for 2 nights. It has a kitchenette, ok for small cooking, with microwave and electrical cooking pan. Just a pity it has no... More

We stayed in the apartment for two nights and enjoyed the very modern, comfortable decor, flat screen, A/C, private patio and top of the line fixtures and fittings. Our stay could not have been more enjoyable, waking to the beautiful view over the vineyard towards the river,... More

Loved this B & B. The rooms were lovely, clean and large. We were 2 couples and in addition to our rooms they provided a lounge for us to spread out in if we wished. The location was perfect--about a 3 minute drive from town and a short hiking distance to Huka Falls. Our hosts were knowledgeable about the area... More

We stayed for two night at the beginning of March. The room and bed and linens and hosts were fantastic. We had the downstairs room which is almost a complete house in itself.
