"I stayed at the Regent Rotorua with my two sons during a family trip. The hotel was clean with useful an amenities, including a kitchenette, two queen beds, and a sofa. Best of all was location: adjacent alleyway with a dozen restaurants and shops, dozens of downtown food and shopping options, and Lake Rotorua well within walking distance. This centrally located hotel is very convenient and family friendly."

"The rooms were exceptionally clean — honestly, some of the cleanest accommodation we stayed in during our trip. Cleanliness is the most important thing to me when choosing somewhere to stay, and this property absolutely exceeded expectations. It was clear that everything was meticulously maintained and genuinely cared for. A staff member showed us to our room when we arrived and walked us through the amenities, which was such a nice touch. Everyone was very friendly throughout our stay and kept...

Top Waimangu Cauldron Hotel Reviews

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."

JetPark Hotel Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were very friendly and helpful"

Sudima Lake Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay , it catered for all our needs and will definitely return."

Haka House Rotorua

8/10 Good

"The rooms were clean and the bed was very comfortable. Appreciated having a jug and a good fridge in the room!"

Quest Rotorua Central

10/10 Excellent

"Great service"

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."

Prince's Gate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyable overnight stay, pleasant friendly staff, well appointed room, handy location, reasonable tariff for time of year, would definitely stay again and recommend!"

Regent of Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"Service was good, room was clean, nice property, nice location as well"

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."
