Great room and hot tub for reasonable price
I was there with my wife and two teenage children visiting from the US and the room was very clean and comfortable beds. Billy at the front desk was great and he helped us with several questions about the local area. We got a unit with a hot tub in the back garden and that was a great experience!! It was a really nice room at a very reasonable price!

Nice clean motel near the centre of Rotorua
Very clean and nicely refreshed motel in Rotorua. About a 20 minute walk to the main dining area or a 3 minute drive. Service was nice and friendly and parking was easy. Would recommend for a short stay in Rotorua.
