  • This show was awesome! After the initiation you are welcomed into the village and go threw different stations learning about the culture and then you get a performance show and dinner. Definitely recommend and reservations book way out, so book early! And tip: ask for Mark to be your driver... Seriously I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard

Celeste

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Clean, comfortable, quiet. This place smells very strongly of rotten eggs, like all of Rotorua, so if that's a deterrent, I may suggest not staying anywhere in Rotorua. That said, while there are aspects of this hotel that are quite dated (like the reception area), it's clear they've put some money into upkeep (like with the hotel stairs and the individual rooms). It's not a 5 star hotel (no view, no pool/gym, limited reception hours, etc.) but for the money you pay and the type of hotel/motel it is, this spot is as good as it gets!
