It was a quiet place to have good rest and at the same time it’s close enough to most of the shops and other activities. Neat rooms and nice staff will consider staying in future visits to Rotorua.

I loved every feature of the complex. Warm, clean and modern facilities. Delicious and perfectly cooked to order breakfasts. Lovely surrounding being close to the stream and hearing it while relaxing in the spa. We are keen to stay there again and recommended it to both families and couples.

Good communication from the team. Office was closed when I arrived but they had the welcome pack ready with all the information ahead of time. The property itself is a bit old but everything inside works. One big dead bug in the bathroom but the rest of the room was clean.
