Nice Place to Stay in Rotorua
Nice property with lots of parking available. We booked 2 rooms and had requested for both rooms to be close together however this wasn't the case. We had one room on ground floor and the other on the next floor. Getting credits for not having room cleaned each day is nice as we don't normally get our rooms cleaned so getting $10 credit each day is awesome. There's washing machine, dryer and water filter tap to fill your bottles. City centre is about a 5 mins drive. Overall a nice hotel to stay in while in Rotorua.

Nice and clean larger hotel on the outskirts of town. A pleasant stay but a little farther from the Centre than we would have preferred.

Not as described
Room wasn’t cleaned properly and didn’t meet the description. When I asked for a clean room which matched the description of when we booked they provided another room which was not to the description or been cleaned properly. Poor customer service, no sympathy or care.

Great for a Rotorua stay!
Rydges is a lovely hotel. We were sorry that we only stayed for one night. Right in the heart of the geothermal area - we could see the steam from our room! As we arrived late evening decided to try the buffet at the hotel which turned out to be pretty amazing!! Would definitely recommend.

Soak, Drink, Sleep
This is a nice modern motel, which was very clean and comfortable. Very nice security guard on duty. The hot tub was wonderful to soak in after a long day of hiking. We enjoyed drinks at the bar and a wonderful buffet breakfast the next morning.

Far from the town center
The manager of the hotel was helpful and kind. We stayed in the newest room that is a part of an upcoming redesign, and it was comfortable. In general, this hotel is far from town.

Good choice for the price and good location
This hotel is well located. We did the geothermal hiking trail and that was just accros the street from the hotel which was nice. The hotel is clean and a good choice for the price.
