A nice place to stay

Overall we enjoyed our say at Sport of Kings. The checkin was easy and the ladies at the front were super accommodating and friendly. The room was clean and the kitchen had good amenities. We used the laundry while there and it worked well. It is a little dated and the spa was clean but a little old looking although we still enjoyed it.

We stayed in a one bed apartment with hot tub. ( Mother and adult daughter) It was great to enjoy our own pool / hot tub throughout our stay. The room was super comfy. We only had one night in Rotorua and I was very pleased with my stay here. A friend had recommended it to me. Staff were helpful and friendly. Quiet location. This will become my go to motel when I am next in Rotorua.

My first experience of a motel and I was pleasantly surprised! Super friendly host, nice rooms (we booked one with a natural hot tub) and good location. The property is older but clearly well-loved. Cleaning was pretty good - some areas missed like the under side of taps but I am notoriously fussy. The host/ owner couldn’t have been more friendly or helpful and we felt right at home. I’m very glad we chose to stay here. Thank you!
