The Tongariro River Motel is in Turangi, half way to everywhere, at the southern end of Lake Taupo.
Turangi is the gateway to the central mountains of New Zealand’s North Island and is situated midway between Auckland and Wellington on State Highway 1 alongside the Tongariro River.
Tongariro River Motel is located just off State Highway 1 on the corner of Piri Road and Taupahi Road and is just a few minutes walk to the Tongariro River.
(Note Piri Road was previously “Link” Road which may still feature on some devices?)
