I travel often for work and like to support different businesses however I do not recommend Lake Rotorua my experience was terrible. I had booked in for two nights. I overlooked the first terrible event of being checked into a room that wasn’t clean, it looked like someone was still staying in there. Empty pizza boxes, unmade bed, dirty towels in the bathroom. They said there was a miscommunication, When I was given my new room there were holes in the bathroom, and a strand of long black hair in the fridge. The next morning I had bought my pre-made breakfast with me and there was no cutlery but of course this was before 9am and no one I could ask. I then was unaware that you had to request housekeeping so I came back later that night to no fresh linen. The unmade bed was annoying but ok. By then I couldn’t be bothered trying to find another accommodation as it was already 7pm. Just to add to this the two lights kept flickering needing a lightbulb and The TV crapped out to finish the night. An unpleasant experience and I do not recommend.

Spacious, adequate parking with sensor lights out back away from the main area. Prompt service: It was cold in the evening and the wall heating units were weak, but portable heater provided when asked. WiFi was a little spotty, but adequate. The hard drive was faulty on the Sky unit, so unable to record programs. Good shower with decent pressure. No warm water in the basin tap.
