The room was great for a solo leisure traveller and I love the location on the second floor. I didn't go to the breakfast so can't say anything about that. I particularly love the history, the colourful old world decor and charm, the lounge, and lovely staff - shout out to Kumar, a very sweet and helpful young man. I was happy to come back to this grand old dame, I am tired of soulless, bland, modern hotels. You have something special and I hope to be back in Rotorua again to stay there.

The staff and their services are beyond exceptional. They are so lovely for allowing us to have our elopement wedding ceremony on the hotel grounds. Check-in and check-out are so swift too. We stayed in the Lakefront suite and enjoyed the fireplace and the bath tub that goes with it. It is truly more than what we have expected. They even served our breakfast in our room because we had to leave really early in the morning. The hotel, the scenery, the staff, the facilities, and the peacefulness in the area are soooo worth the money.

    Tim and all of the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The kids loved the pool and having the bath in the backyard. The configuration of the rooms were perfect, as kids could sleep in front whilst adults have access to the bath to relax in the evening 🙂 Will definitely stay again everything was clean and tidy. We have 3 kids and it worked for us perfectly

    Great location - away from the bustle of Rotorua - but just a quick drive to get into town. Super close to the amazing Okere Falls cafe and lovely bush walk. Easy access to zip lining, sledging and white water rafting. Relaxing space, and a little less sulphur smell than other areas around the lake.

    My grandchildren played in a annual New Zealand Maori League Rugby Tournament held in Rotorua over the weekend from 27/9/2025 & 28/9/2025 with teams locally, nationally and Internationally participating in this tournament which would've generated much needed revenue and tourism to local business hotels and motels in the area. Almost all hotels and motels had been booked out months in advance so to find avaliable accomodation at Rotorua Hostel for my family was a god send BUT to have my reservation cancelled the day of Our booking in was A Big Disappointment and to find other accomodation within budget at last minute was impossible. Would I reccommend Rotorua Hostel NO DEFINATELY NOT

    I loved the nature and surrounding lake and canals. Good for people with boats and who want to get away from populated areas. If needing food supplies bring with you as the restaurant on site works according to bookings (eg not all day /all the time). Very enjoyable site to relax and enjoy the pool, nature and gym onsite though.
