    We had 2 enjoyable days here, can't recommend it highly enough the place. It was really beautifully decorated and good standard 4-star hotel as stated in the description. The room was extremely pleasant and stocked on a high level and they provided wake-up service when we asked.

    I was happy, the superior king room I booked came with bedroom, a breakfast thrown in and a very comfortable bed. The location was great - so close to the Novotel Lakeside Rotorua for 4days in Dec, serene lake and Eat Street the happening place and a plethora of dining options. I ate at the attached restaurant near the hotel.

    Their breakfast option with a nice added value, seafood, salads…everything really is savoury and warm, put others we have been to shame! The location is great and lovely, and the area is pleasent close to bars and restaurants. There are bars and restaurants nearby.

    The breakfast is good hot, with seafood, options for everyone, meat. As for me location is favourable and absolutely perfect, so close to the attractions of Rotorua, restaurants, and the lake for a wander, and conference centre. Further, there's Sulphur Point at a short distance from the hotel too.

    Recently refurbished property with very friendly employees on service in the bar. Really well appointed and brand-new room facing the lake. Perfect and incredible location for our visit to Tamaki Maori Village just a short stroll away from the hotel. A great selection of food in the venue, in-house restaurant. The pool area is nice too. The hotel of choice in Rotorua.
