We had a big group and all of us were comfortable. We did not get to use any of the facilities in the hotel as it was a short stay. Breakfast was average but filling. Staff were very friendly and accommodating.

Rotorua is living proof of the magnificent, and sometimes mind-boggling, might of nature. Smoking hot springs, bubbling mud pools and fast-spouting geysers give the surrounding landscape an almost other-worldly feel.
This New Zealand city sits in the Waimangu Volcanic Valley, the world’s newest geothermal hotspot. It was created after the 1886 eruption that covered Te Wairoa Buried Village, between 2 of many lakes gracing this fertile terrain. By Lake Rotorua’s shores is the luxurious Polynesian Spa with its thermal pools. Just behind in Government Gardens are the city’s best cultural offerings: the Arts Village, Tamaki Maori Village and Rotorua Museum, in an elegant former bath house.
Native animals roam in Rainbow Springs Kiwi Wildlife Park below Mount Ngongotaha, accessible via the Skyline cable car. The views while ascending make it obvious why this is called the Bay of Plenty. Tikitere Thermal Park on the opposite side of the lake is known as Hell’s Gate, but as long as you can ignore the sulphuric smell, the spas are simply heavenly.
More springs are in Whakarewarewa Thermal Reserve, whose surrounding forest is popular for mountain biking, and Wai-O-Tapu where the Champagne Pool is a striking mix of green and orange.
Booking.com’s accommodation range is as diverse as the scenery, encompassing luxury hotels, cheap hostels and motels near Rotorua Airport.

So much to do.
So much to do. Something for everyone and options for all ages and abilities. The scenery is beautiful. I loved walking through the redwoods.
The tourist attractions are expensive and that is a shame as you need to choose and cannot do as much as you would like if you are on a budget.
However, it is a beautiful city and I will definitely return.

Rotorua is a great place to stay with plenty to see and do as long as the weather is fine. When wet there are not a lot of indoor activities to do other the Polynesian Pools, Government Gardens, and the Maori Village with the carving displays.
Many restaurants are available with a great variety of cuisines.
Accommodation is many and varied but it can be difficult to find one that meets all expectations as some of the advertising is not that clear.

This house is large and has everything needed but furniture...
This house is large and has everything needed but furniture and bedding are old. House could be cleaned a bit better as the room I stayed in had cobwebs in the corners. The furniture is old and stained from use. The sheets on my bed were stained and the bedding was old. All bedding was clean. This house is on the edge of Rotorua and takes about 7 minutes to drive to the CBD. It rates quite a bit above where it should but houses of this size are not that common. We only used two of the four bedrooms. Kitchen was well equipped, but we did not do any cooking. Both bathrooms were fully functional. Outside under the carport there are drying lines for clothing. There were towels and blankets hanging on the clotheslines the entire two days we stayed here.
The location for this hotel is very central in Rotorua, only being a few minutes' drive from the city centre. The room had two floors, two bathrooms with two televisions and a hot tub. There were full kitchen facilities and the room was tidy. We particularly enjoyed the extra facilities of the pool and the in-room hot tub which you can use until very late. The staff were exceptionally nice and welcoming, giving us some local tips and made the stay better.
BRUCE! Bruce at the front desk is the best part of this hotel. He is warm, friendly and engaging. He knows more about world affairs than most people from our own country. The room did have a tiny kitchenette and that part was amply supplied. Within walking distance to downtown Rotorua and the area's restaurants, shops and grocery stores.
Visited Rotorua with my family for a trip. We stayed at Jet park and booked 3 rooms. Great location close by to everything it was so convenient. Rooms were immaculate very modern, very clean and beds were super comfy. I definitely will come back here again! Recommended this hotel 1000%
My family and I loved our stay the Location was amazing and was so awesome with the lake/park within close walking distance. The beds are very comfy, and the pool/spa were a definite bonus. We would stay again without hesitation. Thanks Novotel Rotorua A+ from me and mine.
The bathroom is clean and good size, it also has an indoor plant inside. Bed sheet is white in colour, like a 5 star hotel.
It is Value for money. It is a AirBNB stay, shared the house with the host.
They even provide butter/Jam for your toast if you want.
It was our first time at the Thermal Oak Motel Rotorua.
We had the Family 3 bed rooms at the back of the Motel. It was fresh with good beds, great spaces and very confortable.
The lady at the front desk was super kind and very helpful.

Everything. spacious room with beautiful kitchen. the spa in the room was great and the mineral spa was amazing. even fresh coffee was provided in the room.

The hotel is well located and has the best heated swimming pool in Rotorua.
I always stay here with family every time I travel to Rotorua.
the staff are really friendly and we had a really good time.
Rooms were spacious, clean, and well appointed. The staff were very friendly and helpful, there was a lovely wooded walking path near the hotel, and the pool and spa were clean and comfortably warm.
Nice clean rooms with your typical hotel basic facilities. Loved the location. Walking distance to lake and shops and eat street. Great place to stay if you have function on at the Events Centre.
Very convenient location to all the restaurants, lakefront, and touristy spots (thermal walks etc). Parking was free and ample. You can use the gym and hot pools at the Novotel hotel next door!
