Top tips for finding Rotorua hotel deals

  • Book at least 74 days before your stay begins to get the best price for your Rotorua accommodation.
  • How long should you stay? KAYAK users usually book their accommodation in Rotorua for 9 days.
  • For those who want easy access in and out of Rotorua, choose a hotel near Rotorua train station. The Lake Rotorua Hotel is conveniently located directly next door.
  • If you would like to pamper yourself during your vacation, pick a hotel next to Kuirau Park, an area that contains geothermal footbaths, a scenic lake and several hot springs. The Backyard Inn is an affordable yet charming choice that is a 2min walk from the park, while the Novotel Rotorua Lakeside is a chic 4-star option that is a 7min walk away.
  • To learn more about the region’s culture and visit a few attractions during your stay, opt for lodging in the northeast region of the city such as the Prince's Gate Hotel. This will put you just a short walk away from the Rotorua Museum and Sulphur Point.
  • Hoping to play a round of golf during your travels? Select a hotel near the Springfield Golf Club, an 18-hole course that is open to non-members and contains amenities like a restaurant, driving range and putting area. The Golf Edge is a stylish choice that is less than a 5min drive away.
  • If you want to experience some of the city’s nightlife, book a hotel in the city centre like the Astray Motel & Backpackers. When staying in this area you’ll be just a short walk from bars like the Lava Bar & Grill and the Pig & Whistle Historic Pub.

FAQs when booking a hotel in Rotorua

  • Where should those travelling on a budget choose to stay?

    To travel as affordably as possible, you’ll want to stay in a hotel in the interior of the city rather than near the coast, as this area is generally more budget-friendly. The Rotorua Thermal Holiday Park is a particularly affordable option that is good for families and still less than a 10min drive from the city centre.
