Located on the shores of Lake Rotoiti, the hotel offers gorgeous views of the lake from some of the rooms as well as the restaurant. The hotel itself is located 16km outside Rotorua, so a car is essential. It has a great restaurant and bar - both with excellent service!

Place was pretty clean. It is a little bit outside of Rotorua but priced well. The place could use an update but it was clean and the staff was nice. I have stayed better places but have stayed at worse.

Nice location, 15 minutes away from down town Rotorua. View front of the lake, friendly staff. It requires some upgrades, but room was very comfy and clean.

The location of the hotel is very beautiful, just by the lake. We got a lake view unit and we enjoyed that in our stay. The hotel also offered kayaking, which we did in the lake and enjoyed.

Hotel is quite tired, staff friendly, phone in room was not working correctly. On checkout at 7.00am no one on Reception able to use computer to charge for Room service the night before. Rooms very well appointed and comfortable just showing their age, staff friendliness made up for a lot of the short comings.

Absolutely beautiful place to stay. The hotel is a little jaded now but you can still see its former splendour. I thought it was wonderful inspite of its tired facilities. The staff were super helpful and the breakfast is good. I would stay here again.

Some of the furniture was broken and the fridge only worked half the time. Otherwise a nice relaxing place to be. Hot tub w jets was nice
2-night trip

4/10

The room was pretty clean and the bed was comfortable. Sadly that’s the only good part. The whole place seemed neglected and run down. Paint was peeling on the bathroom walls, dead dragonflies in the hallway windowsills. It was probably a lovely property 20 years ago but it has not been maintained. Even the patio furniture by the lake is in need of replacement. We weren’t expecting top luxury, but we didn’t feel it was worth the money we paid.
