Pros: The view is to die for . What you see in the pictures is what your going to get. The rooms were really clean. One of the best accommodations we've been to in a really long time

Cons: I think the only downfall was the aircon . Maybe we didn't know how to use it but we booked 5 rooms and 2 of the rooms aircon was hardly working. Besides that the motel was the icing on top of the cake for our trip

Pros: Super clean, the staff must have jumped in as soon as we left. It was a beautiful area right on the lake. Fantastic view right on the doorstep.

Pros: everything!

Pros: Super location right on the water. Great playground which our grand daughter loved. Comfy beds with spare bouncy pillows. I noticed a McDonalds close which may appeal to guests who enjoy takeaways. Lovely warm spa pool and swimming pool too.

Cons: There was a very old trampoline in the playground that did not look very safe with a lovely new one right next to it. How about getting rid of the old one as it spoils the look of an otherwise top quality playground. Water pressure was very low in the shower.

Pros: Plenty of space in 2 bedroom unit. Great for kids with playground and outdoor pool and spa. Lots of places to get food within 5 min drive. Beautiful location on the lakefront. We will be back next trip to Rotorua!

Pros: Location

Cons: Only 1 person on reception at check in who was on the phone for 5 mins and could not be bothered looking up to acknowledge me (very rude), room needs updating (old). Picture online looked nicer than it was. Dinner service was in another room from the main dinning because of a function and the room had a ceiling leak and no atmosphere as we were stuck on our own. Every second thing on the menu wasn't available and service was slow, probably due to lack of available staff

Pros: The hotel itself. The fireplace & lounge area to enjoy a drink. Location to town.

Cons: The apartment we stayed in Very dated. Single beds very narrow for youth. Blinds & curtains didnt block out the light. Lack of on-site parking. The hot pools needed a good clean,and are not mineral. They are chlorine heated by thermal hot water.

Pros: Liked the heritageness of the hotel,the proximity to my events,comfy bed

Cons: Wasn’t expecting the room to be so small. Was expecting there to be shampoo but there wasn’t any. Something sharp was in the bed and when I eventually investigated it it was someone’s earring under the bottom sheet. Took this to reception when I checked out but they weren’t that interested. No apology

Pros: Excellent location close to town, easy to find in a central location. The facilities were clean but the room a little outdated with old fixtures (radiator heaters) not properly removed in the rooms. If it was the middle of winter we would have froze there were no extra blankets. The pool was awesome and friendly staff.

Pros: The rooms and the hot pools were wonderful

Cons: Room was exceptionally small.

amazing. we stayed here for our mini moon was lovely.

Pros: The reception area was lovely and the staff were welcoming. The beds were really nice and comfortable and the rooms were very spacious. The onsite laundry facilities were really handy as well.

Pros: Before check-in I once had concerns on the quality of the hotel since the price is much lower than the average in Rotorua. But when we entered the building and room, we were impressed by the nice staff and comfortable room. There were heater and heat pump in the room, soft and comfortable bed, great location, balcony with the lake view. All in all, around 110 NZD per night is really attractive price in Rotorua.

Cons: The toliet is a little bit small. Near to the lake and lots of birds rests on the beach, it means you may wake up earlier by the birds. But it is out of hotel's control.

Cons: Nothing in particular

Pros: Location was good. Close to town and restaurants/shops.

Pros: Clean and spacious, big pool.

Cons: Parking not near the rooms and no porter to move bags to the room or to bring bags back for checkout especially if we have to roll out bags all the way to Level 3.

Pros: Great location and easy access to the main town

Cons: The aircon in the room was very loud. It was place on the side wall and airflow was not good unless turned up to high, which was noisy. We also stayed due to the indoor pool but the temperature was way too hot on a sunny day when we wanted relief from the heat - it was set to high 20's Celsius, so we barely managed 5 minutes which was disappointing. The room was ok but decor getting a little tired and old. Had to get maintenance to fix the TV as well

Pros: Good location downtown, close to waterfront. My "lake view" room was dated, with some cracks in the doorframe and aging furniture. However, was clean and overall adequately comfortable. "Lake view" from 2nd floor simply means a view of the spa across the street, which is actually on the lake - we had no real lake view and actually paid extra for the "view". Would need a higher floor for the view. Room was not worth the price. I would recommend staying away from this hotel. 3 stars at best.

Cons: See above.

Pros: The setting and feel is amazing If you want a place to get away from everything and sink into nature, then this is it

Cons: That I had to cut the visit short and go home

Pros: The breakfasts were fabulous. The eggs were cooked to perfection every time. And the owners kindly delivered breakfast to our room - which is an absolute luxury!

Cons: Nothing - it was really great.

Pros: The hosts were so lovely and kind. Such a great location on the waters edge.

Pros: the location the hosts are amazing and nothing was any trouble to them. value for money. peace and tranquility so close to many attractions

Cons: nothing

Pros: Breakfast on the decking right on the lakefront

Pros: The service from the staff was excellent, and the food was exceptional. We thoroughly enjoyed our breakfasts, and the dinner menu also had great options available.

Cons: We didn't enjoy the ambience of the place. It doesn't feel warm and inviting. The corridor leading to the rooms feels like a hostel, and the room we stayed in was dark with not much natural light. Plus, our bed was broken. When we mentioned this to the staff, they already knew about it. So, I'm not sure why we were booked into that room when ample other rooms were available.

Pros: The location was beautiful, right on the lake front, very peaceful. The breakfast was yummy, we ate on the outside deck with the lake view, the service for breakfast was super friendly and fast. The room was warm and very clean and the bed was comfy. I didn't use the spa / sauna or kayaks but all of those were available to me for free. It was an easy drive or taxi to restaurants and bars as well.

Cons: I had no complaints with my stay.
