"This was our first time staying at this property, and we were very impressed. We stayed in a suite and found the check-in process to be quick and easy. It was also convenient to find a parking space close to our room, and we appreciated the range of facilities on offer. The staff were friendly, helpful, and welcoming throughout our stay. The room was exceptionally clean, and the spa bath was more like a spa pool, which was a fantastic bonus. The underfloor heating added an extra touch of comfort...

Top Lake Tarawera Hotel Reviews

Newina Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the friendly and helpful welcome we received, and the beautifully furnished, spacious and immaculately clean 2 bedroom unit we stayed in. Beds - great! Lovely linen and comfy - firm beds but not hard. 2 toilets much appreciated. Kitchen was excellent and reasonably well equipped- a couple of suggestions here though - microwave, sitting on top of rangehood is well above safe height of 1250-1350 off floor and I'd suggest remounting on the wall. Also no bowl of any sort for a salad or microwaving ( if you could reach it!). During our 3 day stay we did cook a little. Bathroom underfloor heating didn't seem to be on and tiles were cold. No handrail etc for climbing into shower over bath. With 2 bedrooms/ 1 bathroom and 1 foggy bathroom mirror , another mirror and/or essential full length mirror somewhere would be hugely helpful. Being downstairs by stairs was noisy at times, but that's unavoidable in this style of motel, as are the extremely narrow parks for medium size SUV's. These are tiny things though, in general I'd definitely recommend Newina and would stay again."
