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.

Hell's gate geothermal pools was fascinating.

Hell's gate geothermal pools was fascinating. Mud bath and spa pools gave us unique experience. Worth a try. It was very crowded but staff managed everyone well. Matai Maori experience including Maori singing and dancing was very good. Got to know more of Maori culture and food prepared in Hangi.

Great things to do either indoors if raining and outside...

Great things to do either indoors if raining and outside when fine. Cafes and restaurants reasonably priced. Some main street shops need a tidy up to keep attracting people there. Looking a bit run down now. Parks and public amenities looking good. Business staff where we visited very friendly and helpful ☺️

Visit to the Kiwi Hatchery was such a highlight.

Visit to the Kiwi Hatchery was such a highlight. We were fortunate enough to see three newly hatched kiwis. Musical Theatre in Rotorua is alive and well. If you get a chance to get last minute tickets like we did you won't be disappointed. Well done Rotorua. Rock of Ages was 5 star!

There are plenty of places to eat that's what I like about Rotorua, easy to navigate around to different places or events, I was there for the annual Aotearoa Māori Rugby League Tuākana Tournament.

A shithole.

A shithole. Street people, shitty shops, poor-to-basic food outlets using boosted resort pricing. Very obvious nobody comes to Rotovegas for the shopping. Perfect for backpackers who know what they like and what they want to see/do while there, I used to come for the mountainbiking back in the days when it was a niche pastime; one thing the place does pretty well is the biking.

A truly excellent motel - absolute cleanliness and comfort, with incredibly attentive hosts. The breakfast was simply outstanding, and the whole place had such a warm, homey feel. After staying somewhere like this, it’s hard to go back to soulless hotels – so consider yourself warned! :) We absolutely loved our stay. A huge thank you to the lovely hosts for creating such a wonderful place to rest and recharge before continuing to explore the stunning nature of this beautiful country!

We really enjoyed this accommodation & loved the story behind the family that turned a run down hotel into what you see today (due to retrenchment) all the while nursing a child with an illness. You can read about them in a book located in the apartment. We were warmly welcomed & delighted with the amenities. Excellent location, only 15-25 minutes from all major tourist attractions with free car parking. Highly recommend. Travelled with 3 adults & 3 teenage children.

Cheap friendly accommodation in the middle of town. There's a great coffee shop shop next door where you can get coffee from 6.30 AM. We were a family of nine using the common kitchen and lounge for cooking and eating breakfasts before exploring Rotorua. We were halfway through our roadtrip and did our laundry here as well. Manager was very helpful and friendly.

The family event was at the hotel. Also it was handy to have after hours security who assisted us with parking close to the hotel, when the carpark was full.
