Top Whakarewarewa Thermal Reserve Hotel Reviews

Imperial Hotel Rotorua

8/10 Good

"Good and clean"

Arawa Park Hotel

4/10 Poor

"Our room looked tidy, until i got to the bathroom to have a shower. Alot of mould on the ceiling & mould & grime in the shower. It instantly made me feel ill. I asked for a room change. We were upgraded. The second room was a bit better, but there was mould on the bathroom ceiling & grime on the window panes. Not as much as the previous room, but it was still there. The kitchen bench hadnt been cleaned. There was sticky grime on that. There was no microwave, cutlery & plates. No dish liquid or cloth's to clean up after ourselves. It consisted of 2 wine glasses, 2 small glass tumblers, 2 cups & 2 teaspoons. I had to ring the motel restaurant to ask for plates & cutlery for our room, as we provided our own food. With the cost of the rooms, what are we paying for? A bed to sleep in? One positive, the bed was comfortable. The cleaning staff need to be retrained & their work checked. So disappointed. Will not be returning."

Regal Palms Resort

6/10 Okay

"The property was incredibly clean, warm and a nice large room. It was very comfortable. The property had no restaurant or breakfast available, and felt like a ghost town. It shouldn’t be described as a resort, as it’s very clearly a motel. The check in staff and house keeping were polite. However was disappointed that when I phoned at8.30am to ask for a sachet of hot chocolate for my child, the lady at the front desk was rude and wouldn’t bring a sachet past the room, saying that housekeeping hadn’t started for the day and she was alone at the desk. For the price I paid, I would expect better facilities and service from front desk, however it was one staff member that ruined the experience, not all."

Rydges Rotorua

6/10 Okay

"Upon checking in, the gentleman that checked us in must of had a hell of a day as he was unwelcoming, stone cold, no information regarding amenities of the hotel. The polar opposite to the restaurant staff and other reception staff. Loved our stay, the views amazing especially if you book rm 822, its pretty spectacular."

STAY280 & STAY284 Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"1 night stay after spending the day on the lake with a JetSki, the room was exactly what we needed with the inroom spa, clean and comfortable, lady at the reception was super friendly and welcoming and made no fuss when I asked if I could park the ute towing the JetSki needing to take up 3 car park lanes. Would stay again."
