First of all, it feels like you're pulling up to your own private mansion. When they say boutique, it's a very accurate description to be fair and in the best of ways. Being offered a drink and a cold towel upon checking in was a really nice touch as well :) Warm welcome indeed. From staff, the rooms, the hot tubs, service in the restaurant, everything was top-notch. The Hotel Managers Darsh, was absolutely outstanding and always made sure I had everything I needed during my stay. Couldn't recommend this place highly enough, so don't hesitate. It's worth it.

Location was nice. We were upgraded to one of the deluxe outside units where we could park right outside. Rooms did have a funny smell but could have been the sulfur in the air. Room and bathroom were clean. Beds were comfy. Great value for money. Would definitely stay here again.

FAQs about hotels in Rotorua

A Volcanic Land of Wonders

Rotorua is living proof of the magnificent, and sometimes mind-boggling, might of nature. Smoking hot springs, bubbling mud pools and fast-spouting geysers give the surrounding landscape an almost other-worldly feel.

This New Zealand city sits in the Waimangu Volcanic Valley, the world’s newest geothermal hotspot. It was created after the 1886 eruption that covered Te Wairoa Buried Village, between 2 of many lakes gracing this fertile terrain. By Lake Rotorua’s shores is the luxurious Polynesian Spa with its thermal pools. Just behind in Government Gardens are the city’s best cultural offerings: the Arts Village, Tamaki Maori Village and Rotorua Museum, in an elegant former bath house.

Native animals roam in Rainbow Springs Kiwi Wildlife Park below Mount Ngongotaha, accessible via the Skyline cable car. The views while ascending make it obvious why this is called the Bay of Plenty. Tikitere Thermal Park on the opposite side of the lake is known as Hell’s Gate, but as long as you can ignore the sulphuric smell, the spas are simply heavenly.

More springs are in Whakarewarewa Thermal Reserve, whose surrounding forest is popular for mountain biking, and Wai-O-Tapu where the Champagne Pool is a striking mix of green and orange. 

Booking.com’s accommodation range is as diverse as the scenery, encompassing luxury hotels, cheap hostels and motels near Rotorua Airport.

    Don't worry about going out of town to thermal sites when you can walk around the lakeside and park and see geothermal action for free. There's also a wealth of street art around town mixed in with a great range of shops and cafes. The iSITE staff were very helpful with planning trips and activities and talked me through using local buses: they also called a taxi for me at one point. DEFINITELY do go to Mitai Maori Village's cultural evening. You might think it sounds expensive. I promise you it's totally worth it. This experience was one of the highlights of my 3 week tour of NZ and one of the first things I tell people about.

    I personally loved how quiet and non busy it was. There were alot of tourist in rotaroua especially at the (Skyline) one of the popular places which was very busy up there, If your interested in going but dislike busy day, I recommend you going at this specific time ( 4:30 - 5:00pm ). What gets me the most is the air smell of Rotoroa, which is quite very strong. Overall I like rotoroa and I would definitely come again.

    Rotorua is an incredible destination, blending natural beauty with unique cultural experiences. The geothermal activity is astonishing—visiting the geysers and hot springs is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The scent of sulfur can be strong at times, but you get used to it quickly, and it's part of Rotorua's unique charm. I loved exploring the Redwood Forest, which offers fantastic walking and biking trails surrounded by towering trees. Maori cultural experiences here are authentic and enlightening—the evening village tours and hangi feasts are not to be missed. There are plenty of adventure options too, like zorbing, mountain biking, and relaxing in the hot pools. The city is easy to navigate, with friendly locals and lots of cafes and restaurants offering a great variety. Overall, Rotorua exceeded my expectations and I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting New Zealand!

    If you can ignore the smell, then Rotorua is a good place to visit. There is a lot to see and experience, including a walk down to the lakefront and stopping in for an ice cream at Lady Jane's down by the lake. You can take the gondola up to the Skyline restaurant and enjoy the view or even enjoy a luge ride or two. There are a lot of places to choose to eat at, ranging from the simple and less expensive to the more elaborate and more expensive. Try a visit to the Polynesian spas or even Hell's Gate for a mud pool experience. There is a tree walk to experience in the redwood forest or take a walk around the Rotorua gardens. There is something for everyone and every age, and a lot more to see and do so allow 2 to 3 days to explore Rotorua

    Total surprise at how great this hotel was! It's attractively done out and very warm and welcoming. The staff are simply lovely so helpful and smiley. Our room was perfect for our small family and the food!!! My gosh. One of the best meals I've had in months in the dinner restuarant and breakfast offered a wide ranging buffet that was really fresh and had something for everyone. It is also very child-friendly. Couldn't ask for more.

    Such a big house, lots of space for the family to spread out and have their own space….important after sharing rooms in hotels before this stop on our holiday. It was close to everything. The host made check in seamless. The little things like heaps of dishwashing liquid and laundry detergent helped out too! The kitschy decor was adorable and the kids loved it!
