FAQs about hotels in Rotorua
A Volcanic Land of Wonders
Rotorua is living proof of the magnificent, and sometimes mind-boggling, might of nature. Smoking hot springs, bubbling mud pools and fast-spouting geysers give the surrounding landscape an almost other-worldly feel.
This New Zealand city sits in the Waimangu Volcanic Valley, the world’s newest geothermal hotspot. It was created after the 1886 eruption that covered Te Wairoa Buried Village, between 2 of many lakes gracing this fertile terrain. By Lake Rotorua’s shores is the luxurious Polynesian Spa with its thermal pools. Just behind in Government Gardens are the city’s best cultural offerings: the Arts Village, Tamaki Maori Village and Rotorua Museum, in an elegant former bath house.
Native animals roam in Rainbow Springs Kiwi Wildlife Park below Mount Ngongotaha, accessible via the Skyline cable car. The views while ascending make it obvious why this is called the Bay of Plenty. Tikitere Thermal Park on the opposite side of the lake is known as Hell’s Gate, but as long as you can ignore the sulphuric smell, the spas are simply heavenly.
More springs are in Whakarewarewa Thermal Reserve, whose surrounding forest is popular for mountain biking, and Wai-O-Tapu where the Champagne Pool is a striking mix of green and orange.
Booking.com’s accommodation range is as diverse as the scenery, encompassing luxury hotels, cheap hostels and motels near Rotorua Airport.

Don't worry about going out of town to thermal sites when you can walk around the lakeside and park and see geothermal action for free. There's also a wealth of street art around town mixed in with a great range of shops and cafes. The iSITE staff were very helpful with planning trips and activities and talked me through using local buses: they also called a taxi for me at one point. DEFINITELY do go to Mitai Maori Village's cultural evening. You might think it sounds expensive. I promise you it's totally worth it. This experience was one of the highlights of my 3 week tour of NZ and one of the first things I tell people about.Guest review byElizabethUnited Kingdom - 10.0

I personally loved how quiet and non busy it was. There were alot of tourist in rotaroua especially at the (Skyline) one of the popular places which was very busy up there, If your interested in going but dislike busy day, I recommend you going at this specific time ( 4:30 - 5:00pm ). What gets me the most is the air smell of Rotoroa, which is quite very strong. Overall I like rotoroa and I would definitely come again.Guest review byAnonymous - 10.0

Rotorua is an incredible destination, blending natural beauty with unique cultural experiences. The geothermal activity is astonishing—visiting the geysers and hot springs is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The scent of sulfur can be strong at times, but you get used to it quickly, and it's part of Rotorua's unique charm. I loved exploring the Redwood Forest, which offers fantastic walking and biking trails surrounded by towering trees. Maori cultural experiences here are authentic and enlightening—the evening village tours and hangi feasts are not to be missed. There are plenty of adventure options too, like zorbing, mountain biking, and relaxing in the hot pools. The city is easy to navigate, with friendly locals and lots of cafes and restaurants offering a great variety. Overall, Rotorua exceeded my expectations and I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting New Zealand!Guest review byAbhijeetNew Zealand - 10.0
Redwood walk was an unexpected treat.
Redwood walk was an unexpected treat. Thermal activity and mineral spa facilities excellent. Enjoyed visiting Whaka and Ohinemutu. Lakefront scenery & eateries in eat street great. Loved our stay at All Seasons caravan park.Guest review bypaulineAustralia - 8.0

If you can ignore the smell, then Rotorua is a good place to visit. There is a lot to see and experience, including a walk down to the lakefront and stopping in for an ice cream at Lady Jane's down by the lake. You can take the gondola up to the Skyline restaurant and enjoy the view or even enjoy a luge ride or two. There are a lot of places to choose to eat at, ranging from the simple and less expensive to the more elaborate and more expensive. Try a visit to the Polynesian spas or even Hell's Gate for a mud pool experience. There is a tree walk to experience in the redwood forest or take a walk around the Rotorua gardens. There is something for everyone and every age, and a lot more to see and do so allow 2 to 3 days to explore RotoruaGuest review byTraveller 1962New Zealand - 10.0

We were only here overnight this time to attend a special function. However, we have travelled here many times in the past and it is a great place to visit. So many attractions and activities for all the family.Guest review byMarjorie AnnetteNew Zealand

- From £104.20 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.5Very good - What previous guests thought, 3,738 reviewsVery accommodating for our family trip. Tidy rooms & kid friendly. The rooms had plenty of space & we loved the private spa. The TV is also the biggest we have seen in any Motel/Hotel. The beds & pillows were so comfortable I wish I had check the brands. Also the location is very easy to find & having supermarket, food stores & petrols stations within walking distance was perfect.Guest review byCherryNew Zealand
- From £85.01 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.4Very good - What previous guests thought, 1,337 reviewsNothing, it’s suppose to be 5 star but the place was old, tired looking. The vanity and toilet were rusty. There was no shampoo or conditioner provided just body soap. The wardrobe didn’t have door. The carpet was dirty and old. This was definitely not 5 star as stated on the website. We have stayed in a lot of 5 star hotels/motel and we know what to expect. Very disappointing.Guest review byPaulNew Zealand
- From £50.14 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 5.8Passable - What previous guests thought, 1,387 reviewsPerfect value for money and comfortable. If you’re expecting a 5 star resort this is not the place but for a young family with children who just need a place to rest and refresh for a weekend stay in Rotorua it was perfect! Kids loved the pool and spa. Staff are extremely friendly.Guest review byAgnes-JulizabelNew Zealand
- Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.4Very good - What previous guests thought, 189 reviewsIt was very spacious, clean and had all that we required - a lot more freedom compared to a motel or hotel.
