Top Waiotapu Hotel Reviews

Prince's Gate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay close to town. And funky, yet awesome rooms"

Arawa Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"Good value for money. Hotel is a bit dated, but otherwise the rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. Not a bad location as well."

Newina Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"Hot tube was outstanding after a long day of tramping"

Rydges Rotorua

8/10 Good

"Staff here were welcoming and super helpful, everyone was really friendly. The room was a little outdated but very clean. The shower was a tad small, wouldn’t be ideal if you were very tall as the ceiling was low over the shower, but it wasn’t a problem for us. The games room for the kids was a great bonus and we spent quite a bit of time with our son down there, very fun! The outside heated pool was lovely, unfortunately two of the three nights only one spa was working. One night one was completely cold and then the next night it was only luke warm, the outdoor pool was hotter. Buffet breakfast lovely and yummy."

STAY280 & STAY284 Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"Marcie was so good and relatable. We were up-graded and room was clean and well appointed with a spar which we used. Parking was just below our room. Would stay here again.. recommend 280 284"

Quest Rotorua Central

8/10 Good

"The apartment unit was spacious very clean and comfortable for our week stay. Staff were very helpful and friendly, very good customer service."

ibis Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"Great room, perfect for what I needed. Slightly unfortunate that the water didn't work initially, but the team were swift at rectifying. Great location also"

Novotel Rotorua Lakeside

8/10 Good

"great staff very helpful"

Park Central Rotorua

8/10 Good

"The rooms were very basic, for the price you can’t complain, A coat hanger would be good just too hang your coats up etc. The room coffee and tea making gear but no milk or fridge so black it is… The staff/reception lady was very helpful. We mixed up our arrival day and she managed to book us into another room for the night with no extra charge.. we booked through Expedia.. Would I stay again….. probably. The place was very close to the redwoods treetop walk which was handy and also close to some restaurants etc."
