An older type motel. It is not a "hotel" - there is no restaurant. It's rather shabby but you get what you pay for. Our unit was clean. The motel manager is very friendly and helpful. He kindly moved us to another room when we discovered that we had been allocated a unit adjacent to the extremely busy main road. It is worth noting that if you book a Twin Studio, they are all located on the noisy side of the motel. There is a pool, which appeared to be in good condition and was being used. On the whole, reasonably good value for money.

I travel often for work and like to support different businesses however I do not recommend Lake Rotorua my experience was terrible. I had booked in for two nights. I overlooked the first terrible event of being checked into a room that wasn’t clean, it looked like someone was still staying in there. Empty pizza boxes, unmade bed, dirty towels in the bathroom. They said there was a miscommunication, When I was given my new room there were holes in the bathroom, and a strand of long black hair in the fridge. The next morning I had bought my pre-made breakfast with me and there was no cutlery but of course this was before 9am and no one I could ask. I then was unaware that you had to request housekeeping so I came back later that night to no fresh linen. The unmade bed was annoying but ok. By then I couldn’t be bothered trying to find another accommodation as it was already 7pm. Just to add to this the two lights kept flickering needing a lightbulb and The TV crapped out to finish the night. An unpleasant experience and I do not recommend.

Spacious, adequate parking with sensor lights out back away from the main area. Prompt service: It was cold in the evening and the wall heating units were weak, but portable heater provided when asked. WiFi was a little spotty, but adequate. The hard drive was faulty on the Sky unit, so unable to record programs. Good shower with decent pressure. No warm water in the basin tap.
