We had a fantastic time at the Astray Motel in Rotorua. The room matched the description perfectly and was spotlessly clean. The bed was very comfortable, and the kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed. We also really liked the large shower! Practical things like the reliable Wi-Fi, plenty of parking spaces, and the on-site laundry facilities made our stay even easier. The central location is absolutely top for exploring the area and going on day trips. A special thanks to the owner, who was super nice, lovely, and incredibly helpful throughout our stay. We highly recommend this place and would definitely come back!

Great especially for night bus travel!

Clean comfy bed and hot showers. They let me check in late at night after arriving on night bus. Also let me stay in their kitchen and living room area until my night bus to leave town which helped because waiting for bus is ouside and was very cold. Convenient to walk to bus station too.

Astray Rotorua

My check in was smooth, staff friendly. I eventually managed to park in thier car park, very limited with spaces, other guests crossing into 2 spaces didnt help. Connecting to the wifi was easy once you choose the right hub, this could have been better explained. The room had everything i needed but was shabby, everything in the room needed updating. The taps and shower were both rusty, the entire floor area wasnt in the best condition along with the tiles on the bathroom floor. I stayed comfortably for 2 nights and managed to do all that I needed. A bedside lamp or small wall light would help make the room less bright for if you don't want the full ceiling lights on

The only window was facing the balcony in the bedroom, no security screen or fly screen. Room was extremely hot, fans did nothing. Did not want to open window for safety reasons.
