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 Rotorua Museum 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."

Aura Accommodation

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was very accommodating of our need for early check-in. The rooms were great, and the motel has a perfect location for downtown activities. "

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"

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!"

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."

ibis Rotorua

8/10 Good

"Was there for one night and it was good value. Sheets had a few marks on them other than that no issues."

Ambassador Thermal Motel

8/10 Good

"It was perfect for our needs, upstairs and lake view, perfect location"

Regent of Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

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