Lock in a great price for Haka Lodge Taupo – rated 8.9 by recent guests!

to get started.

Tv in the room we had was awesome and staff were lovely!

Bellnana, Australia

This is another good Haka hostel. It isn't as modern or flash as Paihia, but is cosy and well equipped. I particularly like the vibe of the people, almost all young, who were in to the outdoor activities, and full of enthusiasm. I was sick, unfortunately, and the staff were most sympathetic. I feared it would be too noisy but it wasn't. All that physical exercise must exhaust everyone!

Gillian, Australia

I like the bed have belong bed’s little light and my place when close curtain. Even all roommates have different time sleep or wake up, I can sleep very well! The workers was so nice, help me move my heavy suitcase from second floor to down stairs! They have wonderful view from outdoor and super cute kitten!

Ya, Taiwan

Place has a good new look with redwood decking and siding. About 10 minute walk from the InterCity bus stop. The CBD with shops, cafes, and restaurants are mostly within that time range. Countdown Supermarket is about 15 minutes away. The Haka Lodge had a nice lounge and kitchen with tables inside and two picnic tables on the deck. Found this a good place to meet new people. Had a small single room for a good price. Clean multi-sexual bathrooms on each floor. Staff gave good advice in area hikes.

My favourite hostel during my trip around New Zealand. As I'd already stayed in Auckland Haka Lodge I expected the same standard and was not disappointed! I loved the kitchen area and the layout of the hostel itself, really felt like I was on holiday! I was in a six bedroom dorm, which was extremely spacious and again love the personal curtain and light for each bunk.

Lauren, United Kingdom

Bunks are great (good mattress, appliances, curtains)

Adrien, France

Great hostel, with a really nice atmosphere and facilities. In the sun they have a nice terrace to eat on and the kitchen has many hobs to cook on. Comfy bed and helpful staff. Big thumbs up.

Sara, Switzerland

Great location between the "Heart of Taupo" and the magnificent Huka Falls trail. Friendly and helpful staff. Enjoyable Jacuzzi.

Elior, Israel

The staff were friendly The kitchen facilities were clean and tidy

Dan, New Zealand

The hostel was lovely, in an 8 bed dorm there was lots of space for everyone, locks on the drawers if you needed to lock your stuff away. The kitchen had everything you would need and more. Boxes to put all your fridge items in. All areas are cleaned quite frequently so no cleanliness complaints! All staff were lovely and were happy to have a chat when not working. Great place to meet other travellers. Thank you!

Countdown Supermarket is about 15 minutes away. The Haka Lodge had a nice lounge and kitchen with tables inside and two picnic tables on the deck. Found this a good place to meet new people.

“The hostel was lovely, in an 8 bed dorm there was lots of space for everyone, locks on the drawers if you needed to lock your stuff away. The kitchen had everything you would need and more. Boxes to put all your fridge items in. All areas are cleaned quite frequently so no cleanliness complaints! All staff were lovely and were happy to have a chat when not working. Great place to meet other travellers. Thank you!”

“Very good hostel with great vibe.”

It isn't a great design for soundproofing, but not much can be done about that. Bathrooms were basic but clean, and for some people stairs could be a problem.
This is another good Haka hostel. It isn't as modern or flash as Paihia, but is cosy and well equipped. I particularly like the vibe of the people, almost all young, who were in to the outdoor activities, and full of enthusiasm. I was sick, unfortunately, and the staff were most sympathetic. I feared it would be too noisy but it wasn't. All that physical exercise must exhaust everyone!

The workers was so nice, help me move my heavy suitcase from second floor to down stairs! They have wonderful view from outdoor and super cute kitten!

“Modern, clean, comfortable lodging.”

The hot tub was not hot yet as it was serviced that morning.
Place has a good new look with redwood decking and siding. About 10 minute walk from the InterCity bus stop. The CBD with shops, cafes, and restaurants are mostly within that time range. Countdown Supermarket is about 15 minutes away. The Haka Lodge had a nice lounge and kitchen with tables inside and two picnic tables on the deck. Found this a good place to meet new people. Had a small single room for a good price. Clean multi-sexual bathrooms on each floor. Staff gave good advice in area hikes.

My favourite hostel during my trip around New Zealand. As I'd already stayed in Auckland Haka Lodge I expected the same standard and was not disappointed! I loved the kitchen area and the layout of the hostel itself, really felt like I was on holiday! I was in a six bedroom dorm, which was extremely spacious and again love the personal curtain and light for each bunk.

Room are quite small, which do not provide enough space for bags especially if people are traveling with huge luggages (a couple who had those, I had to wade to reach my bed).
Bunks are great (good mattress, appliances, curtains)

Nothing.
Great hostel, with a really nice atmosphere and facilities. In the sun they have a nice terrace to eat on and the kitchen has many hobs to cook on. Comfy bed and helpful staff. Big thumbs up.

Had the 4 person bedroom with private bathroom. But bathroom was a little cramped. Just meant you had to be a little careful when you were in there not to knock into things like the sink/toilet.
Easy late night entry package. Friendly staff when talking over the phone. Heaps of parking off street for trailers.
