Guest reviews for Lakeside City Apartments

4 out of 5

Ideally situated for hospital or town in a quiet area with stunning view of the lake; just 5 mins walk to town centre. Small room and en-suite, but spotlessly clean with comfortable beds and quality bedding. The only drawback for us was the creaky floorboards above when occupants walked around - but their bedtime was similar to ours! Highly recommended and very good value- we’ll be back

Couldn't contact property via the number given or via Wotif. The phone on the wall didn't work at the front door. Called another number listed at the front door to gain access. Front door doesn't close properly which made us feel insecure as it's a share house, not individual apartments as promoted. Mat in hallway made it impossible to roll bags to our room. Breakfast was OK, frozen bread doesn't bother us but may do to others. There were 5 long life milks of which 4 were open. Breakfast was complimentary which was nice but maybe should be checked more often. Owner was pleasant and understanding that I didn't receive an email about access. Property is located in a very dangerous spot. Street parking if you don't get in quick, which I was worried about cars side swiping our car as they came around the corner. Room was comfortable, but shared facilities are dated. Free washing machine and dryer which would be handy. Lighting didn't work down the side of the property.

When booking this you need to be aware that it's a bit like a hotel room in that the room is just a bedroom, with an ensuite, off a corridor and has no outlook at all. Everything else is in the communal area, that you share with guests in the other 2 bedrooms, including the lounge sit down area, dining space, outdoor area & views to the lake, refrigerator, kitchen etc etc. Room was nice and clean with good standard of bed and bedding and was comfortable. Shower has soap but no shampoo etc. Perfect accommodation to book the 3 bedrooms for a ladies weekend or similar as then you'd have the whole place all to yourselves with the very large communal area and facilities.

Rotorua Apartments with shared kitchen

Pros: The free breakfast items and the well-equipped kitchen, and the intimate feel of the premises

Location: Across the road from the hospital with a number of thermal-based activities close by

This is a small premises with 3 rooms that have a shared kitchen and lounge area, laundry, BBQ and hot tub all for sharing. It also has a separate self-contained penthouse and studio apartment which we had not booked. While some distance from shops it is close to the lake and a central thermal park. Cereal, milk, bread and spreads is provided free for breakfast

Good view, close to shops but no parking

There is a view from the lounge but it is a shared lounge for 3 other bedrooms. The continental breakfast is available on self-service but you might want to test it prior to eating they've frozen the bread so that it can surpass it's expiry date. The rooms are fairly tidy but quite dusty. There are only 3 off street parking spaces available and the location of this apartment is right at a bend/ blind corner so it can be dangerous. There are parking spaces across the road but this belongs to the Rotorua Hospital. If you want to secure your off street carpark at the apartment best to leave your car once you've checked in. There is no reception available you'll have to call them by phone.
