"I had a lovely stay at the B&B. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The breakfast was delicious and filling and the location could not be better. Right next to the Redwood forest and walking distance or a short Uber away from the city center. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and chats with Vivien and I would pick this B&B again if I come back to Rotorua."
"Service was excellent, food was great, Common lounge areas were comfortable, our room had fantastic lake views but the resort itself generally needs updating."
"Staff were amazing. Very helpful and went above and beyond. Property could use a little TLC - definitely a bit of faded elegance. Room 2 is the one to have! Breakfast daily was delicious. "
"Wonderful stay in peaceful surroundings with a great view down into Rotorua. Close enough with a car to all the local attractions but far enough away from the busy town centre.
Lovely breakfast, very comfortable room and even managed to find time for the hot tub! Would highly recommend! "
"The hotel is a uniquely decorated boutique hotel. It was about a 10 minute walk from the tourist info bldg. and a quick walk to the food alley and the waterfront promenade. We were allocated a very spacious suite on ground level in the bdlg. close to the hotel entrance. However, the room had its drawbacks. The TV is located too far from the beds for easy viewing ... we assume the designers assumed people would sit on the sofa to watch . Our room had a locked connecting door to an adjacent room ....
"We had a small issue with our room and the team immediately upgraded us. We are very appreciative of the service and commend the team on their dedication to make our stay fantastic "
"Hotel room was fine and comfortable, but the restaurant experience was not smooth. We did not feel welcome at 9:45am and the server was not having a good morning and seemed very distracted and unsure of what she was doing. Perhaps she was new, but having breakfast there did not go well. "
"VR Rotorua is a great resort. It may be an old building however the rooms are spacious and the beds are comfy! I would definitely stay at this property again without hesitation"

"Our favourite accommodation in NZ. A beautiful hotel with just the best location. A minute’s walk to Eat Street and just a few more to the CBD and other attractions around town. We had a lovely room with a private courtyard, the bed and pillows were super comfy and it was all very clean. The bathroom was great - large shower with good water pressure and double vanity basins and mirrors. Wonderful smelling toiletries and they even provided toothbrushes. The weekend staff were very helpful and friendly. Cannot recommend highly enough. "
"I had a large room with two king size beds. I particularly enjoyed the spa bath in my room after completing the Rotorua Marathon! A very nice restaurant and professional room service. "
