Rotorua Hotels with Gym

Stayed here for 2 nights with my family including an infant. Room was pretty spacious. Staff was friendly. Unfortunately, there seems to be bed bugs or dust mites on the floor carpet as I got plenty of bites around my ankle. Went ahead to inform the front desk but I was told that there were absolutely no bed bugs in the hotel. Overall room is ok except for the cleanliness.

The hotel has free geothermal hot springs, just next to Lake Rotorua, there are no living facilities around, but the town is beautiful.

I'll start with the things I liked. The breakfast buffet. It was nice to have a quick way to get a good breakfast at the hotel. The decorating in the lobby was very nice. Now the not to nice parts: The room was cramped with 2 queen-sized beds. (Though it did have a refrigerator and kettle.) I opened the curtains to be surprised by shredded sheers. The wi-fi was very poor. The access is not handicap accessible. The front steps did not have a railing. The ramp was great for luggage, but would not have accommodated a wheelchair. (I have bad knees and use a cane.) They seems understaffed. A common problem throughout our trip. But the staff was helpful. They acknowledged the torn sheers and have plans to replace them all.

First stay was 3 years ago when it was still a Holiday Inn. We enjoyed the pools and nearby attractions. Came back this time around for the same reasons. Kids enjoyed the heated pool. And we adults find it soothing after a long day out. When pool towels run out, reception was glad to replenish. We were at a deluxe queen queen room facing the carpark. Room looked tired. Bathroom was even worse. Mould on the grouting and sink had lime scale. Turning the tap was bound to give you a splash. Other than than, room was clean and tidy. Staff were friendly. And doing the best they can on a busy long weekend. Carpark can get full on a busy weekend, you almost dont want to go out for dinner.

The hotel used to be a private mansion with every detail. The hotel is facing Lake Rotorua, the room has a wide view, five minutes drive from the skyline and ten minutes from the downtown. The hotel has its own paddock, where horses and sheep graze leisurely on the slopes. Breakfast can be cooked to order, and the lamb in the kiwi breakfast is very good. It was very comfortable to take a walk in the courtyard after eating breakfast. The hotel staff was warm and considerate. Some regrets were that because of the self-service on the skyline, I didn't try the dinner at the hotel. I have a chance to try it next time. There is a study room on the second floor of the hotel. There is a 200-page world map on the table. It has been turned over and confirmed that there is no less in China.

We had our dinner at the in-house restaurant (The Grill). It was fully booked and was really busy. There was only 1 lady looking after the bar and the restaurant. Despite being busy, she delivered an exceptional service to us and even to the other customers. We will definitely come back for the service, though the hotel needs some TLC.

Two nights. The first we enjoyed a tour dinner of the highest quality at the on-site restaurant. The second we dined in at Mr Yakitori and what a pleasure that was also. Included breakfast offered the full options, including an egg station, again of super quality. From checkin to checkout, every staff member was friendly and helpful, a credit to the establishment. Rooms were spacious, comfortable and clean. My single downside was the shower head, which sent water in every direction. Not sure there is too much in remedy, the high mineral content of Rotarua is most likely hard on bathroom fittings.

Not bad not far from Maori Village and Geothermal Park

From the email exchanges in advance, right through to the farewells at the doorstep we couldn't have asked for more thoughtful and charming hosts. We had made an advance request for single beds and on arrival were even offered a choice of rooms. The one we chose was by the pool, quiet, and extremely well appointed with comfy beds and good amenities. Our ”continental” breakfast was beautifully presented with attention to detail. A housekeeping issue was efficiently dealt with, with apologies that it had occurred. We loved our choice of a place away from the town and found Hamurana Lodge and our stay everything we could have hoped for. The alpacas and rabbits were a bonus! Thank you Rebecca and Joe.
