Very enjoyable and would visit again although the price was certainly up there.
Pros:

Great location, great breakfast options.

Would not stay there again. Regardless of location
Pros:

Close to where we needed to be

Cons:

We did not get the room we booked. The room we were taken to looked lovely but did not have the balcony we had booked. So they moved us to a room with a public walkway and called that a balcony. The room was also dirty. The glass tables were smeared with grease and dust and the window sills were full of dead sand flies.

Muy buen hotel en Rotorua
Pros:

El hotel en general y las habitaciones. Muy buena ubicación. El trato de un Sr. Diego en Recepción de la tarde. Muy amable y de gran ayuda en habla hispana.

Cons:

Al llegar no había Internet en la habitación. Luego, el Sr. Diego de Recepción la habilitó y no hubo más problema.

Excellent facilities and we will have no hesitation to book there again.
Pros:

Location was excellent as it was close to most places we needed. They were also able to give us a slightly later check out which was fabulous.

Cons:

I guess the expectation was that guests would use the restaurant as there was no toaster in the room which we would have liked.
