We have just returned from a weekend in rotorua, we were delighted with the regent, the rooms are beautifully decorated in black and white, the staff are very helpful but not in your face, it was a very wet weekend, and the little touch of being offered umbrellas was so helpful. Breakfast was great, freshly cooked to order and the... More

From the greating of "Welcome Home" you get a very good first impression of this Hotel. Completely refurbished with a very modern twist, it is a great place to stay. Very handy to all the bars and restaurants, with its own supurb restaurant to boot, you will impressed! Rooms are not huge but very comfortable. Nice thermal heated pool, great... More

We spent a couple of nights at this hotel while touring the sights in Rotorua. While the rooms aren't particularly large, they are clean and well-maintained. Breakfast was quite nice, and served in an attractive dining area. The owners were extremely helpful and solicitous, and the location was within walking distance of pretty much everything within the town. There is... More

We stayed a single night here in a junior suite. The hotel is located within walking distance of the CBD and one block from "Eat Street" - a substantial collection of bars and restaurants. Free parking is on-site. The hotel appears to have been recently and extensively renovated, and the room and common area decore is elegant and makes a... More

Travelling around New Zealand, we hadn't made any bookings, so was very pleased when we discovered the Regent of Rotorua. From the moment we walked through their door, everything was great. Staff very helpful and accommodating. As I have allergies, the feather duvet and pillows, were swiftly replaced with non allergenic ones, with no fuss at all. Room was fabulous... More

I really researched a lot of options before deciding on the regent. Rotarua has so much to offer! I cannot be more emphatic about my endorsement of this hotel. The owners and staff took such excellent care of the facility and extended that to a personal interest in each patron. If I am ever fortunate enough to return to NZ,... More

Thank you so much for everything! Although we were only here for one night, our stay was most memorable. Thanks so much for your kind and amazing service, your attention to detail and your personal service, just down to remembering my name. Amazing. We booked 3 rooms - the beds were so comfortable, the showers amazing and the decor, so... More

It is a really attractively decorated hotel, with exceptionally good service, great food and decent toiletries, robes etc. even a teddy bear in the room. But I cannot give it 5/5, simply due to the strongly perfumed rooms. I understand the scent is supposed to distract from the Rotorua sulphur smell, but some windows don't even open and the owners...

Stayed here with an Odysseys Unlimited Tour and was so impressed by the warm efficient and welcoming management. They couldn't have been more accommodating, cheerful, and pleasant. This is apparently an old style motel that they have rennovated and it is just amazing what they have done with it! It is decorated in black and white and the rooms and... More
