Staff were very friendly on arrival. Room was very spacious and had everything you needed. Bed was extremely comfortable ( great nights sleep ) and the choice of restaurants was great. Breakfast in the morning was awesome ( Love the hash browns !! ). Would recommend staying here.

The hotel is very hot with the heating set at around 40 for the Asian tourists. No air conditioners just fans. A disappointing stay especially as we had gone there to have a special family holiday in a more up market hotel. Only 2 queen beds in room when I had booked for 5 people and was told that my youngest could sleep in our bed. I had to hire a roll away on top of the cost. Staff not knowledgeable about Rotorua found out accurate information at tourist info centre in town. Very disappointed won’t stay there again
