Sudima Lake Rotorua

Sudima Lake Rotorua

10/10 Excellent
"The lady at check in was fantastic, gave us the lowdown & map of where the main area & restaurants were if we didn’t want to eat at the hotel. The hotel was also much bigger than I had expected. The buffet breakfast is a must, so much choice, we hadn’t expected to around for it as were are usually up & out before most hotel breakfasts are available so we didn’t add it at the time of booking which I would recommend."
