Excellent Room!!
Our stay was wonderful! The room was great. Downstairs we had a kitchette, dinner room table, sitting area and bathroom. The bedroom was upstairs. We had a private patio with a hot tub and the parking was right outside your door. Check in and check out was simple enough.
Would definitely stay here again!

There’s a laundry room which was very helpful. Bring coins for the machine. Properly is close to many local businesses. If visiting this town for the first time, know it’s a sulfur smelling town.

Expensive not great.
Expensive stay, that wasn't worth it. It's quite old fashioned and just feels tired, ie shower curtain in bathroom. The security is a worry with a very old ranch slider lever lock on the front door. But the back door to the spa pool ( more on that further down) doesn't lock. The area is brick walls but the roof is the plastic corrugated sheet. So it would be easy for someone to break in. I slept with my keys and electronics.
The spa pool is actually not a spa pool, a wee bit of false advertising. It's actually a big round bath with two normal taps on it with no jets. Overall very expensive for a ok stay. Won't be back

Was genuinely impressed with this motel. A lot of motels in Rotorua are quite tired but this one was great. Is just like in the pictures, very nicely refurbished, very warm room too. The bed layout with the king, queen, 2 x singles is perfect for a family of 6. Having the outdoor hot tub was great. Can't speak highly enough of this place!

It was quiet and close to the hot spring I wanted to visit, but there were rubbish bins in the toilets and rubbish left by previous visitors, and I thought the cleaning staff needed to improve his work.
