We have now stayed at Bella Vista three times over the last 4 years and it is the only place that we will stay in Rotorua. Well priced, clean, comfortable and well presented and you can't beat the friendliness of the hosts, Kevin and Sue. Kevin went out of his way to assist when we needed to do some work... More

My wife & I and our 30 & 22 yr old sons stayed 3 nights, booking 2 "Superior Studios". Rooms were clean, beds were comfortable, and there was a small kitchen area with microwave, mini fridge, sink and dishes/glasses/utensils. There is a washer/dryer available for guest use. It is about a 10-15 min. walk to town for restaurants and the... More

They provide accommodation of a consistant standard across the country with a choice of room sizes, number of beds and cooking facilities if required. We stayed in Rotorua, New Plymouth and at Auckland airport. All were clean and comfortable and the owners and staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, they provided... More

This motel is a great place to stay, walking distance to town and restaurants and entertainment, Kuirau Park,and Ohinemutu Village. The units are fairly new and very well maintained, and the comfortable bed was a real bonus. Every thing one needs and the owners gave excellent information on things to do. Would definitely recommend this motel.

The motel is conveniently located, clean and reasonably priced. The hosts, Sue and Kevin are very friendly and offer great advice as to what to do in the area. The road construction near the motel did not affect our stay at the motel - it was quiet. This is a great place to stay in Rotorua.

My family and I stayed here for two nights and were very pleased with the accommodation. The hosts were very welcoming and gave us lots of info on local attractions and restaurants. There were some roadworks nearby, but these are only a minor inconvenience and had little -if any- effect on our stay. A great place to stay in Rotorua!

We stayed in a number of motels in this chain during our trip around New Zeland. This one is typical, providing everything you need for an overnight stay. We were upgraded to a bigger room with a microwave which we appreciated. The place was very clean and well maintained. They give you milk for coffee / tea. The only downside... More

Affordable accomodation close to the business/ central district in Rotorua. Close to the gondola and rotorua parks. Close to shops, restaurants and main road. Great staff and clean rooms. Would definitely come back.

The motel is very well kept up. Currently there is lots of street repair going on that makes it a bit difficult to navigate into and out of the parking lot, but that should not deter you. There are facilities for making coffee, tea and toast plus a microwave and refrigerator. From the motel it is a short walk to... More

Very helpful and friendly hosts. Had originally planned to stay two nights but visiting family meant that we could only manage one night. We were greeted by Kevin who not only made recommendations of where to visit but also sorted discount vouchers for us. Having booked an evening visit to the Maori village on our behalf, Sue waited with us... More
