Rydges Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"My 2 year old daughter and 14 year old son absolutely loved their buffet breakfast as did i. My son also really loved the pool at night, relaxing in it right up until it closed at 9:30pm"

Pullman Rotorua

8/10 Good

"Quick and easy check in. Modern hotel with a very large room (king with lake view). Only parking option is valet so be prepared to pay for valet upon arrival. Within easy walking distance to more restaurants than you can visit. Disappointed that there wasn't a pool. Didn't like that price for breakfast went up if we didn't commit at check in. The price should be the same for guests regardless of when you decide to have it. Overall, a good experience "

Millennium Hotel Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"We traveled from the USA and this was our first stop. We loved it! Yes your patio smells like sulfur sometimes, but that’s to be expected when staying right next to the active geothermal lake. They were very helpful and responsive to all our questions/requests. The breakfast had a great variety and the quality of food, juice, and drinks was truly surprising. The room was very clean, the parking was very convenient."
