My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were small; I can't imagine staying with more than two people. The reception wasn't ready on arrival, possibly due to understaffing, but they made up for it with a complimentary breakfast. The rooms definitely need renovating, and the bathrooms are tiny.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room had comfy beds, but it felt a bit claustrophobic, and the bathroom was not as clean as I would have liked. The check-in time was ridiculously late at 4:30 pm, which was quite inconvenient. However, the location was very convenient, close to cafes and restaurants, and I had full use of the pool at the neighboring Novotel. The service was affected by the current situation but was professional and warm overall. The dining options were pretty standard and catered to most tastes.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient, close to eateries and with great lake views.

The hotel is centrally located, just steps away from the lake, providing easy access to the main city center and great restaurants. The rooms offer a mix of styles, with some being exceptional while others are average, all at a fair price. The dining experience could use some improvement in terms of breakfast options and pricing, but the overall service, especially from Bridget, was lovely.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, despite being of good size, suffered from thin walls and consistent door slamming by other guests, making it hard to enjoy until late afternoon. The service was friendly but lacked professionalism and efficiency. The location was excellent, especially for someone with mobility issues like my wife, offering easy access to dining options and nearby attractions. The dining experience was somewhat disappointing, with limited choices. Overall, it was a stay with ups and downs.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and in a good location for local activities, but the city view meant keeping the curtains closed due to the proximity to Novotel. The service was a bit out of control at times but was ultimately helpful and promising to address issues. The location was convenient, close to the lake and main city center, with off-street parking, though it may be impacted by the air quality in Rotorua. Dining offered decent options but had pricing discrepancies for children. Despite some drawbacks, my stay was enjoyable overall.

My stay at the hotel was filled with positives like a fantastic lake view from the room and a cozy bed. However, the room size was a bit small, especially for more than two people. The staff was friendly and accommodating, but some services were limited, like dining options only available at specific times. The location was excellent, with easy access to great restaurants and ample parking. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with a good variety of food but not all items fresh. Overall, a value-for-money stay with some minor room size constraints.

The hotel has a variety of breakfast options to cater to all eaters, but the rooms were cramped and not ready upon arrival. The service was friendly and helpful, although the 'take it or leave it' attitude was noticeable at times. The location was great, surrounded by good places to eat and parks for kids. The dining experience had a nice selection but lacked labeling on items. The facilities were good, although a fan was the only cooling option in some rooms.

The hotel is conveniently located near the city center and the lake, offering comfortable rooms but with some size limitations. The service is friendly but may need improvements in restocking amenities. The dining options are varied but could be more efficient during peak times. The overall value for money is reasonable, considering the proximity to amenities and the city.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at the hotel. The rooms were very quiet, and we couldn't hear anything from outside or other rooms, but the strong chlorine smell was really overbearing. On the positive side, we enjoyed having breakfast included, and the room was a great size with everything we needed.

The dining experience was mostly positive with a good selection of cereals, fruit, and toast for breakfast. However, I was surprised to be charged for my young child's breakfast when I was initially told it would be free. It was frustrating not being able to reach anyone to resolve the issue.
