City Lights Boutique Lodge

Walking into something without too much expectations, my partner and i where very surprised. So nice to be greated like old friends who haven't seen each other in ages! The views, tiny gym, sauna, spa, comfy beds and you have to feed the alpacas! Was a real nice change to be JUST out of town (Just a couple of kms). Home made breakfast with a country touch was a sad reality that we had to leave that day. Will be back but not soon enough.

This is the best place to stay in Rotorua. The hosts Leigh and Angie are so warm and welcoming. You will experience true hospitality here. Their homemade breakfast that we enjoyed here each morning was delicious, healthy and filling. It is the perfect to start your sightseeing day. The homemade blueberry muffins and zucchini bread were delicious and comforting. The homemade plum jam, grapefruit marmalade, lemon curd, peanut butter, and muesli were delectable as well. Our room was extremely clean, comfortable and luxurious. This really felt like our home away from home. Angie and Leigh gave us extremely valuable tips on when and where to best see the sites. I think we made the most of our 2 days here because of Angie and Leigh’s recommendations. When we visit Rotorua again, we will certainly stay here.

A comfortable stay in a well- decorated house. Lots of lounging space, a spa, views, excellent breakfast.

We stayed for two nights on our honeymoon and had a great time! The hosts are extremely accommodating and went out of their way to give advice on activities, get to know us, and make our honeymoon feel special. They decorated our honeymoon suite and offered to drop us off downtown in the evenings. They obviously care about their visitors and their business. It felt like staying at a friend's home, having breakfast and drinks in the living room and getting to know the hosts and other guests. Views are amazing and getting to feed the alpacas was so much fun! Walls in the rooms are a bit thin/accommodations a little tight for those wanting a lot of privacy but the hosts and warmness of the place more than make up for that and it's a true B&B experience. Highly recommend!

Had a wonderful stay at City Lights Boutique Lodge Really nice place not too far from all the attractions Hope to be able to go back with friends

Great stay at City lights with wonderful hosts that prepare a great breakfast for you. Great views of the city from the house and cute alpacas in the backyard.

After a long day of driving and sightseeing, City Lights was like a relaxing oasis for us. In fact, we bought groceries in town and took advantage of the outdoor grill to cook our own dinner. Local NZ wine, cheese and steaks plus the lovely views - what's not to enjoy! After dinner, we enjoyed relaxing a bit more in the hot tub! Thanks to our lovely hosts for a great night! Angie was sweet enough to turn on the heater to warm up our cozy room before our arrival and made us fresh museli in the morning. And we got to meet the friendly alpacas. So cute! All in all a great place to stay during your NZ adventures.

What a wonderful time. The hosts were very attentive. We really enjoyed meeting their pet alpacas! City Lights was extremely clean and neat but with a homey feel

Had a lovely stay in this gorgeous B & B. The couple that run it are just so sweet and can't do enough for you. Very comfy bed and the breakfast, superb! Highly recommended!!!

Went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Hidden gem of Rotorua. Must stay!!!!
