Rydges Rotorua, hotel in Rotorua

Located on the edge of Redwoods forest and overlooking the famous Whakarewarewa Geothermal Reserve and Historical Village, Rydges Rotorua features a purpose-built mountain bike and adventure equipment...

Breakfast not worth paying extra for, unless you're a family with children. The food wasn't that appealing, but the buffet would be exciting for kids

FAQs about hotels in Rotorua

A Volcanic Land of Wonders

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.

    Had a wonderful weekend at Rotorua.

    Had a wonderful weekend at Rotorua. Early morning sunrise walk on boardwalk around lakefront, breakfast at Lime Cafe, guided tour at Whakarewarewa Māori Village, mountain bike ride at Whakarewarewa forest mountain bike park, and dinner at The Fainting Goat Restaurant. It all exceeded my expectations. Accommodation at the Princess Gate Hotel was Exceptional.

    Great place to visit, the new spa facility is especially recommended. Can't go to the geyser valley anymore if not a part of a tourist group, which is a bummer. Also feels a bit on an expensive side if you pack it with tourist attractions. But visiting the amazing nature around is free!

    I would never recommend any traveler to stay at the Copthorne Rotorua hotel. The most terrible experience ever. No Toiletries, No staff to hele with luggage during check-in and check out. I checked out a day earlier the room was very dirty , the bathroom floor had hair everywhere. Total disappointment.

    The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel was in a great location close to a lot of places. Was awesome to be able to have a swim and cool off on a hot day and relax in a heated pool. The hotel was family friendly and the kids had so much fun.

    My favourite aspects of the Novotel Rotorua are the location and breakfast. Both are ideal I think. The room is good - nothing unusually good for a nice hotel, but good. Everything was there, it all worked and it was clean and tidy.
