"The room was immaculate, clean and comfortable for the two of us. Great bathroom very big and spacious. I had to work for a bit, the desk was spacious and the wifi had good coverage. We did not have a spa pool. Staff very friendly and I used the service sign to have our room serviced; came back and the room was spotless, thank you. Will definitely stay again and the rate was very good. Close to supermarket, town and restaurants so good location."

Top Waiotapu Hotel Reviews

Prince's Gate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Charming, older hotel, with beautifully decorated rooms. Vintage, but with modern bathrooms & heat a/c. Front desk staff helpful and accommodating to my needs. Would book again."

STAY280 & STAY284 Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"Management was terrific. They went out their way to ensure I was happy with the amenities and did everything with a smile. I will be back at some time in the future."

Newina Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely spacious room that had everything I needed."

Silver Fern Rotorua Suites & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Good value"

JetPark Hotel Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were very friendly and helpful"

Millennium Hotel Rotorua

8/10 Good

"Booked a lake-view room for two nights. The rooms are recently upgraded and very nicely fitted out. If you book a lake view room, request the higher floors. The restaurant meal we had was very nice. We had room service the second night for a small service fee. Only complaint is the doors slam shut which booms up and down the corridor and is quite intrusive. Either a better slow-close or some cushioning on the actual door frame would make it quieter. Car parking is always at a premium but certain street parking is free."

Marsden Stay Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"The staff is the star of this hotel. Before the check-in, the woman staff was able to reassure how to access the hotel after hours. It was simple and I got in easily for my 3 nights stay. When I check-out, the man staff was very helpful to store my luggage. When I came back to the hotel, it started to rain. I waited until I can walk to the bus station (intercity) but the rain kept going on. The same man asked me if I wanted to have a poncho. To clarify, this is not expected as a service at the hotel. He went above and beyond. I am so amazed by the attention of the staff. They make you feel good at their place. Other than that, the room is very spacious and clean for the duration. You can open your luggage with ease."

"Very nice property and excellent location"
