After finding much of the accommodation in town booked out, came to this motel. Room decor was a little outdated but was spacious, clean, quiet and comfortable. Bathroom lacked a bit of natural light. Very good location, walking distance to lake, restaurants and shops. The next morning there was a Sunday market set up right across the road which provided...

Rooms were very dated but clean and spacious enough for us to have 3 big suitcases open at the same time with still loads of room to walk around. Host was very friendly and gave us lots of advice re places to visit, geothermal central heating system etc. We spent lots of time in the thermal pool - so hot!... More

One of the few hotels / motels in Rotorua with anything like a Lake View. Samm family run motel. Rooms well equipped but a little tired More

We had upstairs studios units with the queen bed in the lounge. This area of the unit was very spacious and clean. The kitchen was very clean also. No microwave was a pain. I assumed there wld be one since it is the 21st century. The bathroom was average. I think a little showerpower wld go a long way in... More

This is a reasonable option for Rotorua with decent sized rooms, balconies with lake views and a good location for the town.

Our units were located on the... More

The owners are very friendly and helpful; we had an in-depth explanation... More

Stayed one night on 2nd Jan, its very centrally located with ample parking close to lake and local restaraunt. Host very friendly, ample space and comfort. Sure its not luxurious but for a reasonable priced base to dump you kit and go exploring it excellent. Has a pool and breakfast service (not tested). Cheap rates although GST wasn't included in...
