Guest Reviews
- Thelma (1/5): - Nothing Everything
- natarsha (5/5): Good budget stay - Budget but nice . Has a Telehealth pool which could do with a revamp but good price for budget hotel. Comfortable and clean rooms.
- Lacey (8/5): Convenient, good value for money - It was very convenient for us. Host was friendly and helpful. There are mineral pools although we didn’t have time to use them. The room we booked was very spacious Nothing

- DEBORAH (6/5): 6/10...improvements incoming? - Beds were like new and very comfortable, the place was very clean and warm. Very close to town, walking distance to many shops and the park is definitely worth checking out. The private tub in the outside courtyard was lovely and the best part of the stay. Friendly, accommodating staff. You can tell the place is a bit older and due for some TLC such as painting or upgrading. But on that note it was obvious they are slowly making improvements through the new furniture/decor, etc. Could provide milk, hot chocolate, and a few more pillows, towels and face cloths as there was one face cloth for a booking of 3 people.
- Alastair (7/5): Just we were looking for this time round. - Good location and good value for money.
- Sandra (5/5): Great spa but wouldn’t stay again. - Outside private thermal spa bath was a hit, great size and easy to use. No hot water in shower, shower was only a dribble. They advertised wifi but that only worked in the car park, no wifi in room. They advertised 50 plus channels but only had a couple of free to air tv stations.
- Rodney (8/5): Good location to explore Rotarua - Location
Value for money
Friendly staff
Close to Kuirau park
- Hateni (10/5): - Short
- vaughan (7/5): - Handy to town Stove was old Room looked tired .could do with a make over
- Andrei (3/5): -
- Martin (10/5): -
- Maraea (4/5): - The fact I didn't have to clean or worry my kids breaking things during our stay because rooms were already dirty and items were broken. Dirty cutlery. Dirty floors. Dirty bathroom. Shower was cold. Moved the couch chocolates underneath looked like they had been there ror a year. Tv didn't work. The worker was so weird when he showed me ny room then asked if they could fix tv and his comments to my 14yr old were like wtf! Just silly didn't get tv fixed in end. But I asked for a room change for these factors, and we changed rooms it was still the same except carpet was clean and tv worked. The photos of property and facility on website definitely are old and need to show the real property lol
- Makere (10/5): Was a beautiful 1 night stay with my family, my boys loved our private spa! And the location was perfect for us. Everyth - The spa pool The lack of pressure in the shower
- Roger (8/5): -
- Java (6/5): Loved that it was close to everything, was walking distance to town 😊 - Close to town Wifi wouldnt work properly
- Raj (10/5): - Location, service and comfortable Internet poor
- Sandra (6/5): Location location - The owner was accommodating. The location was perfect right in town. The shower head was brand new but the pressure was ridiculous. The hot water coming out from the kitchen tap was scolding hot. Bit outdated but it was cost enough. Pool said thermal but it wasn't. I think it said it had sky channels but just normal tv
- Smith (8/5): - The mineral pools and the spa outside the room No Netflix or tv channels
- Guest (5/5): -
- Mansell (7/5): -
- Viki (10/5): -

- mark (8/5): - the temperature of the mineral pool was perfect
- Michael (6/5): -
- Gleb (8/5): -
- Priscilla (1/5): - The price. But I guess you get cheap with cheap facility Not nice at all. Could do with some major overhaul.
Bed uncomfortable. Maybe get a nice mattress toppa. No side draw. The spa bath has no jet and dirty.
Dirty or marked towels. Glad I took some. Bought a pillow, no extra available. The laundry room was filthy. Outside not a good look
I wouldn't go there again
- Thelma (1/5): Absolute disappointment - Nothing Everything
- Lindsay (9/5): - Great Location close to the main centre of town Restaurants and thermal parks everything you need while travelling
- Kore (1/5): DISGUSTING. - Obviously nothing. Didn't like the conditions the Motel room was in.The rooms, bathroom, kitchen, windows, fridge, floors, oven were all disgusting and not up to cleanliness that all hotels, motels should be. Obviously the rooms are not cleaned and maintained like they should be for the the price we paid for the booking.
- Johnalee (10/5): -
- Roseanne (1/5): No !! - Nothing !! Everything, false advertising about having sky TV sport and everything else, refused to pay my money back after we chose not to stay up stairs or downstairs (my partner can't do stairs )😒 🙄 The room they showed me downstairs looked like it hadn't been cleaned in ages, it needed a deep clean and smelt yucky and looked old 🤮 😑 wouldn't recommend this place at all !!
- Graham (8/5): -
- Crystal (8/5): Awesome if your not fussy. - For whats its worth I would stay again after all its only somewhere to sleep. Nice and cheap. Good deep pool for the kids. Family room was big enough to fit 3 adults 5 children comfortably. Nothing too flash but it was an awesome stay. We ain't fussy but if you are, you might wana spend a few more bucks to keep yourself happy. Cheers Would of been great to get new towels but thats about it. Maybe we should have asked but we didn't. Nothing much to complain about.
- Kalina (8/5): Our family enjoyed our getaway at an affordable price thank you. - Close to the city centre and all amenities close by. Water in kitchen way too hot, burn hazard.
- Tauaveifo (4/5): - Room was okay Pools were not clean at all.
- Andrea (7/5): - The hot tub was what made us book The mattress on the bed needs to be updated as when ever hubby moved it was quite bouncy which disturbed my sleep so I slept in the single bed. Our room was suppose to have a, queen bed but was only a double with the extra single The hot water was very hot so I'm not sure if that was regulation. A child could get badly burnt.
- Hearn (3/5): - Central to what were we we going Very noisy road could sleep. We were 5 people in the accomodation and there was only 2 coffee cups and no teaspoons. Was rectified when we asked for more. The floor in the kitchen was sticky.
- Zulaikha (9/5): - lovee the roommm!! very comfortable after a long day of trip :) The staff were also very helpful 😊 might consider booking here again in the future! recommended 👍🏻
- Tania (8/5): - Car park Walking upstairs
- Ram (5/5): Improve hot water problem and repaint. - Room paint was not good. Hot water problem. A little hot water was coming, was not enough for bath.
- kodituwakku (9/5): -
- Jadwiga (3/5): -
- Jitendra (10/5): Good place for a simple vacation for a small group. Very cozy and easily accessible - Location was good and staff were friendly.
Was larger than it looks in the photos
- Julie (1/5): Enter at your own risk - Good location near bars and restaurants Filthy windows,sticky kitchen floor,weeds growing round spa,leaking spa over tiled patio,(severe health and safety issue).no Dishcloth in kitchen old grubby bathmat,totally rundown.Our unit was right next door to noisy pump house which kept us awake at night,and didn't enjoy spa,as it was so noisy.
- mohammed (1/5): - Only location Very dirty rooms
Cowwebs every where. Dirty blinds with black stain. Kitchen cupboards tidy just don't feel like using any utensils. Generally very poor condition
- Lee (10/5): -
- Sushant (2/5): - Window Curtain and blinds were really dirty , water pressure in wash was not god.
- Tatiana (5/5): Disappointing Stay – Cleanliness and Pest Control Need Improvement - The room has good size I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights and unfortunately I was quite disappointed with the cleanliness. There were spider webs in multiple areas, including around the spa lights where there were also many insects trapped. It seems like the ceilings and higher areas are not being properly cleaned.
While the bed linen was clean, the bed itself was not very comfortable. I had stayed at this hotel two years ago and noticed a clear decline in cleanliness since then.
Also they the room service was poor no bed maded or rubbish removed.
I also reported a big spider in my room since I arrived, the receptionist gave me a spray to handle it myself.
Overall, the hotel has potential, but improvements in cleanliness, pest control and service are definitely needed.

- avinash (10/5): - The friendly staff that provides great customer service
- Manzano (10/5): -
- Claus (3/5): Attraktiver Preis, Zentrum nahe Lage, ansonsten aber nicht zu empfehlen - Als positiv kann nur die Zentrum nahe Lage angeführt werden. Insgesamt mangelnde Sauberkeit, klebriger PVC Boden, veraltetes Inventar, in einem Schlafraum tropfte Wasser aus der Decke auf das Bett, nach Info an das Personal wurde lediglich das Bett verschoben und Eimer unter die beiden tropfenden Stellen gestellt.

- Millica (5/5): - I liked how central the accommodation was.
I like the spa outside. Liked that there was great wifi Very run down. Needed some renovations and updating.
Would be better if there was a queen bed instead of a double.

- Roger Houghton (4/5): In need of some TLC - Mineral pool Spa had no bubbles

- Leonie (9/5): Perfect for ys - The staff were friendly & courteous.
Room was clean & comfortable
- Kylee Feisst (1/5): Dont do it - Tm It was dirty, blanket still had food from last guests on it. Cushions were almost black from grim. We had a spa went for dinner went back no hot water started to look around and as soon as I saw the food on the blanket I was out, we didnt stay we ended up booking another motel and checking out within an hour of being back from dinner.
- Doyle (7/5): - Heated outdoor pool.
Mineral pool Was a bit dated and could use a lick of paint. Curtains didn't fit window.
- mark (7/5): -
- Lutz (8/5): -
- Kelly (4/5): - Very central and close to town
It was clean Very out dated and needs some rejuvenation
No complimentary milk and dishwashing liquid was watered down
- Ana (8/5): Nice time - It was a good place to stay for few days. The staff very kind, helpful and very nice. Needs some work and cleaning.
- Diane (1/5): Pretty disgusting sums it up - Nothing at all, so outdated and no smoke alarms, you turn the tap on in the kitchen and it runs over bench so outdated and no smoke alarms, you turn the tap on in the kitchen and it runs over bench
I don’t believe this would pass any kind of inspection
- Youngjune (6/5): -
- Deanne (9/5): Comfortable, spacious, clean accommodation - This apartment was very spacious and was also comfortable and very clean. The hot mineral pools were also great. While a little dated it was great value. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Nothing
- Annalice (1/5): - NA Room was dirty/ not vaccumed. Power fault. Heater behind bed head. Dirty lino.
- Jane (1/5): Unsatisfied - Nothing It wasn't up to healthy and safety regulations
- susan (1/5): - The location Old tatty furniture scraped and battered .Towels that had their day.
Should be donated to your animal shelters. Honestly we did not really believe they were still permitted to trade.
- James (6/5): Suited our purpose - Location A bit . Hot water was too hot no warning.
- Tyisha (8/5): Great stay - The pool. Perfect temp to cool down a little, but also for a night swim. The stairs 😂
- Susan (6/5): -
- Dannie (6/5): - Great location, very friendly staff, kids loved the pool. Overall a pretty good stay. Shower pressure was not very good. One of the showers in one of our rooms was quite dirty.
- Travis (6/5): It was okay. I only spent a night there and it was a place to stay and nothing more. - The property is close to the CBD and Eat Street. The interior of the motel is tired and there were no towels or soap in the room. Fortunately I carried my own. It was a cheap place to stay and the price point reflected this. Probably towels in the room would have been good.
- Kenevan (5/5): Stuck in the 70s. - The Location The slimey thermal pools
- Tanita (9/5): We enjoyed our stay at the lodge. The staff were exceptional. - We loved our rooms because they were spacious, more than enough beds and great value for money. The staff were exceptionally accommodating. The decor was little dated.
- Nina (4/5): - Really close to the town center The place seems nice from the outside but the room was really run down.
- Meljohnvan (10/5): -
- Cynthia (7/5): - Excellent location and pools were good. There was coffee and tea sachets but no milk in the fridge. Should have had better towels especially with the use of the pools.
- cheezbag (7/5): Very basic rooms and an older place, but perfectly fine for budget consumers. - A really great budget option for Rotorua. It's a real basic room and older, but it worked perfectly fine for the two nights we were there.
