Fantastic 5.0
It was safe, professional and so much fun. They knew what they were absolutely doing at all times and we never doubted that they would take absolute good care of us. Highly recommend this activity!

the rapids were rapid but the guides were very detailed and reassuring in their instructions during the brief. wasn't cold too because they provided layers and booties. really have to just bring along swimwear to wear inside and a towel to dry off after.

Zoey and Ellie were fantastic guides! I really appreciate their enthusiasm in bringing our group around and made me feel included, especially as a solo traveller. Learnt a lot about glow worms from Zoey since she led our group.

Probably the best experience my family had in NZ.. This canopy tour and zip line is a smash!! The trail was out of the world scenic and we felt really safe in the hands of the guides.. Jake was amazing and friendly.. Will highly recommend this canopy trip if you ever want to do it once

Clean and cozy rooms just enough for you to stay rested while in the room. Locatio is superb as its within near a church, medical centre, playground and the famous Eat street. Plenty of parking within the vicinity. Same owner with Novotel so access to gym and spa in Novotel is allowed using the Ibis access card. Overall, a cheaper option to stay in Rotorua.

The breakfast was great! The automatic pancake machine was fun to use, and the pancakes were delicious. Plus, the staff was very friendly and even helped us microwave our food. Woolworths is just across the street, which is great for browsing and shopping.

Worth it for the price, nothing fancy but you can stay comfortably.. Easy access to everything, but FYI all facilities like the kitchen and bathroom are communal or shared. I also enjoyed the hot pool during the night.

Great 4.0
Nice place, near the city center, minutes away from the lakeside and the Eat Street. But assigned parking was difficult to find.

It was a very good value for the price. The interior was relatively clean, quiet, and warm. It seemed like a great place to stay with multiple people. Also, the location was very convenient, being in the center of the area. It was easy to get to nearby supermarkets, parks, and walking areas.
