The Black Swan is a lovely boutique hotel. Its location just outside of Rotorua was a big plus for us, as the town is very busy. In contrast the Black Swan is an oasis of calm. The staff were all OUTSTANDING. So thoughtful and kind in every way. The breakfasts were delicious (we did not eat dinner there, but heard good things from other guests). We stayed in one of the premium rooms, and I felt it was well worth the extra money, with an amazing view. The grounds are compact but feature some lovely statuary, as well as a pool that we used every day, even in April. In the grotto above are two hot tubs, perfection! Facing the grounds is a solarium stocked with books, coffee, towels for the pool, a really nice room.

This is a very comfortable inn with friendly staff and clean rooms. The setting is very picturesque with lovely grounds, outdoor seating areas, and a fun collection of exotic birds. The breakfasts were delicious and we also enjoyed one dinner in their dining room which was an unexpected treat! The chef is top-notch and we loved the food.

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.

    Rotorua is an incredible destination, blending natural beauty with unique cultural experiences. The geothermal activity is astonishing—visiting the geysers and hot springs is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The scent of sulfur can be strong at times, but you get used to it quickly, and it's part of Rotorua's unique charm. I loved exploring the Redwood Forest, which offers fantastic walking and biking trails surrounded by towering trees. Maori cultural experiences here are authentic and enlightening—the evening village tours and hangi feasts are not to be missed. There are plenty of adventure options too, like zorbing, mountain biking, and relaxing in the hot pools. The city is easy to navigate, with friendly locals and lots of cafes and restaurants offering a great variety. Overall, Rotorua exceeded my expectations and I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting New Zealand!

    If you can ignore the smell, then Rotorua is a good place to visit. There is a lot to see and experience, including a walk down to the lakefront and stopping in for an ice cream at Lady Jane's down by the lake. You can take the gondola up to the Skyline restaurant and enjoy the view or even enjoy a luge ride or two. There are a lot of places to choose to eat at, ranging from the simple and less expensive to the more elaborate and more expensive. Try a visit to the Polynesian spas or even Hell's Gate for a mud pool experience. There is a tree walk to experience in the redwood forest or take a walk around the Rotorua gardens. There is something for everyone and every age, and a lot more to see and do so allow 2 to 3 days to explore Rotorua

    Our favourite family getaway. Spent 2 days.

    Our favourite family getaway. Spent 2 days. So much to do for families but can be expensive to do all the activities. Look out for vouchers. Polynesian spa is amazing if you book a private Lakeview pool, we did this in the rain. Well worth the money spent if you don’t fancy people lol. 3D trick art gallery is amazing and the perfect wet weather activity. Ramada Resort is nice; and stayed in the canal. The Luge - always a must for families, around$200 for a family of 4, with gondola and 3 luge rides. Market kitchen at the luge do beautiful pizzas for $26, can do half and half for picky kids who only eat cheese pizzas. One pizza fed a family of 4, and the coffee was divine!!! Best Latte I had in a long time.

    I had a wonderful time at VR Rotorua Lake Resort. The hotel is located on the shores of the beautiful Lake Rotoiti, which offers stunning views and a relaxing atmosphere. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with a private balcony overlooking the lake. I loved the deep bath, the luxury amenities. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the restaurant served delicious food with a variety of options. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for scenic and comfortable accommodation in Rotorua.
