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!
