Where do I start. This hotel was absolutely amazing. From the minute we arrived, we were impressed with our warm welcome, our beautiful room, comfy bed and tranquility of our view. Everything about our stay was fabulous. Although several kms from the town centre, the short drive to Rotorua was pleasant. It was lovely to be away from the busyness of town. Value for money was incredible. I cannot rate this hotel high enough. Highly recommend!

My wife and I stayed at the Quest Rotorua in April 2017 for 12 nights in total in a studio apartment. I would have upgraded the apartment but the facility is very popular and this was the only one available. It was a great apartment but having stayed at other Quests we have opted previously for two room suites. The studio apartment in Rotorua was 36m2 with a cooktop, dishwasher, microwave and large bathroom with laundry facilities. Housekeeping were great and cleaned the room daily and...

Tucked away on the oft-forgotten east side of Lake Rotorua, this gem of a lodge enables you to get away from it all with stunning lakeside views, the best spa/sauna/steam-room/cold pool combo I've ever had and staff who are warm, professional, considerate and anticipatory. The room was stunning, the breakfast was heaven ( please try the crepes!) and the overall experience felt a lot more expensive than what we paid for! Do it. Try it out. I'm glad I did!

We are a family of 2 kids (17 and 11yo) and we enjoyed the 1-bedroom luxury suite we had. The bathroom is huge with 2 sinks, a spacious spa (we could all fit in if we wanted to). We loved the jets, lights and the music via bluetooth while relaxing in the spa. And since it was raining the whole day, we enjoyed our time together playing table tennis instead. We didn’t miss the pool not being heated at all due to bad weather. But we loved the spa and Rotorua during this travel. Will definitely...
