Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's location was fantastic, close to all the attractions like the supermarket, Lake front, and exciting activities. The rooms were good enough for our needs, but cleanliness could have been better. The staff was friendly, albeit a bit noisy at times. The dining experience had its ups and downs but had some nice offerings for both local and international guests. Overall, decent value for money with a few hiccups along the way.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On the positive side, the staff were nice and helpful, but I faced some issues with the room cleanliness, outdated decor, and ineffective facilities. The location was convenient for my needs, although the dining options were overpriced and lacking quality.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious and cozy, with a spa bath and a great view, making them very comfortable. However, I was let down by the lack of kitchen facilities. The service was a bit hit or miss - some staff members were not very knowledgeable, but others, like the gentleman at departure, were exceptionally helpful. The location was convenient for getting around Rotorua but also had some drawbacks, especially with noisy smoking guests near the pool area. The dining options were varied, catering well to Asian guests, but the breakfast could have been improved. Overall, the hotel offered a decent value for money considering its amenities and services.
