Roseland's Shopping Centre Tours and Activities

The room is nicely decorated, clean and tidy. The bed was comfortable, there was a nespresso machine and a small fridge. The location of the hotel was great for what we wanted it, which was across the street from the Town Hall. The room had a spacious sitting area. However, the bathroom was quite small. The space between the bed and TV to go to the bathroom was very tight and the view from the window… well, the worse we have ever had in a hotel. There was no view because the windows were frosted due to the fact that outside was some horrible area of the building where the aircon duct was located, or at least we believed so. Of course, with frosted windows, the lighting wasn’t great. The worse thing about the hotel was the buffet breakfast during the weekend. There was nothing redeemable about it. Like the view, it was the worst breakfast I have ever had to pay for. We had stayed at the hotel once before and the room, of the same kind was much better, so I suppose we were unlucky with the room we got this time.

We have stayed many incredible and beautiful places all over the world. Te Karaka Lodge is completely in a class by itself! Everything and everyone in this place is superb. There is not one little detail which is not lovingly cared for by the staff. It is a gorgeous place in gorgeous surroundings. There were 4 of us and we were very sad not to be able to book a second night. Dinner was indescribable. Every presentation rivaled a masterpiece painting. We have many pictures of both dinner and breakfast the following morning! An exquisite and memorable place which we loved and appreciated to the fullest.

Everything was fabulous! The breakfast was very yummy! Staff were very friendly!
