Rainbow Lodge Backpackers

Thankyou so much rainbow lodge.. For our stay it is a most relaxing environment It's home away from home.. Very warm an cosy.. Thankyou to the office lady for her understanding..the owner is a great guy.. Thankyou..

I would say, this is definitely the best backpacker I've ever stayed in NZ. After 8 months away, my boyfriend and I came back to Taupo again literally just for Rainbow and our "family" here. It's our home in NZ. The location is great, in the town center, near Pak N Save and The Warehouse, a short walk to the lake. The public area and the yard is big enough and they grow vegetables and lemons in the garden, which is really nice for us. The rooms are pretty cozy with very decent prices. The kitchen is our favorite because there are fire stoves, which are so much better for cooking. And this place is very eco-friendly, which I really appreciate! The people are the highlight of staying here. The owner and the managers are really nice and reliable, the staff are also very friendly. We got our "family" friends here. Pot luck nights are the best, we can enjoy food made by people from different countries. I really love the vibe, I've had so much unforgettable memory here, it's the only place that actually makes us feel at home.
