The bed was comfortable with lots of comfortable pillows available. Searched everywhere for the spa switch when I found it and turned it on it shot out dead skin and dirt that floated on top of the water. It was dirty the bathroom was filthy the ranch slider had fingerprints and fat residue all over it. The heat pump didn’t work and room got pretty cold. Way overpriced for what we got but we did lastminute order it and are grateful we had accomodation.

The place has seen better days. The property is dated and our room was not clean. The staff were ok especially when we discovered that the odour in our bath room came from dried vomit next to the toilet that was not cleaned properly. It’s over priced for the state of the accommodation. Their are many cheaper and better quality options in Rotorua that you should spend your money on. The place needs to be closed and upgraded ASAP.

The king size bed was comfortable. We were disappointed in the condition of the room...power points with masking tape, a ripped lampside with a leaning/crooked lamp, a mug with a coffee stain in the bottom.

Apollo Hotel is a very good property and I would stay there again. However the exterior of the building needs some attention - bird drippings everywhere on the driveway canopy and huge weds and grass growing out of the guttering. Fortunately the inside is really clean. I had a king split bed and it was very uncomfortable. The join in the mattresses created a significant ridge in the bed. There was no overlay which would have been an easy fix. Also the pillows were very hard. Apart from that the room was spacious, the bathroom was great and the extra kitchen items such as the toaster, crockery and cutlery were greatly appreciated bearing in mind the hotel doesn’t offer breakfast.
