to get started.

Wonderful hosts and a most relaxing and friendly experience - if I'm back near Taupo this will certainly be where I will stay!

Ingrid, United States of America

Beautiful room and views Delicious home made breakfast Our hosts were awesome

Gabriela, Mexico

We had a lovely greeting by the family dogs. The room was lovely with some extra perks! cheese and wine in the fridge and breakfast was outstanding. The hosts even let us join them for a glass of wine when we arrived

Lesley, United Kingdom

Nina and Peter are delightful and skilled hosts. Breakfasts were excellent, a good range of choice of New Zealand produce, and the one dinner we had was also high quality and made for a very convivial evening. Our room was large and comfortable, looking out onto the garden and towards the lake. The fully adjustable mood lighting and sound system exceeded our requirements, but we appreciated the fridge stocked with wine, beer and a cheese platter.

Judith, United Kingdom

Fantastic place , lovely house ,very comfortable,made extremely welcome even though we were early arriving. Food excellent, and two lovely dogs ,Bella and Rufus . Perfect location

Constance, United Kingdom

Chalet Eiger is a luxurious little piece of heaven in Taupo. Our room was very beautiful, it was very spacious, with wonderful views of the mountains and we had a big spa bath perfect to soak in after a day full of activities. Nina and Peter were great hosts, they gave us lots of information about the town and the surroundings. Nina cooked a dinner for us which was delicious, she is a great chef! The breakfasts were also amazing. I would recommend Chalet Eiger 100%! It was the best place where we stayed in New Zealand out of our whole one month vacation. We’ll be back!

Sofia, New Zealand

The house was very comfortable, well equipped and modern. Everything was clean and tidy and easily accessed. The hosts were very welcoming and friendly. They were able to share lots of information about the area and gave us some good ideas for activities to do and restaurants to eat at. Well worth the money we paid and would stay there again.

Tim, New Zealand

Oh my what wasn't that I like. Clean and comfortable room.
