Lake view is a building/house/tree view :(

TripAdvisor rating 1.0/5

Inspire16611262953 TripAdvisor review

I've booked the lake view and paid extra for my sister's honeymoon but the room was totally different to the photos online and the view we just building, houses and trees. Their communication was so poor and never came to be after I enquired about the room. The room shouldn't be a lake view and I've shown the photos to quite a few of my friends and they all agreed with me.

Good Location

Virginia2002 TripAdvisor review

We spent 2 days here. We had a room with 2 queen beds. The room had an odd layout although the size of the room was fine. The bathroom was also different with the shower having smoky colored glass around it. The toilet was separate & surrounded with the same smoky glass. There was a breakfast buffet with a lot of good choices. The hotel is close to many restaurants. We tried one that was only 1-2 blocks away called Poco - it was good. Also walked to the Wai Ariki Spa & Hot Springs.

Dear Virginia2002, Thank you for sharing your experience :) We're glad you enjoyed your stay and found the room spacious, even with its unique layout. It’s great to hear you liked our breakfast buffet and took advantage of the hotel's convenient location to explore local dining and the Wai Ariki Spa & Hot Springs. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back again soon! Warm Regards, Kaushi Fernando

Upscale hotel, stinky (sulphur) location

TripAdvisor rating 4.0/5

apf_travels TripAdvisor review

A decent upscale hotel. I think the only upscale hotel in the area. Location: Well situated for exploring Rotorua, and you can walk to many restaurants and a fantastic park right from the hotel. Room: We got one of their largest rooms on an upper floor. It fit a family of three well, with a beautiful view over the lake and stylish furniture. Unfortunately there is little storage in the room (no drawers or bureau), and the toilet opens into the room with only a partial glass divider. Smell: Rotorua has a strong sulphur smell in certain areas, including where the hotel is. The HVAC does its best to remove it, but on one or two days it was pretty strong in the rooms. I'd wake up at night from the smell. In fact as I write this is smells terrible in the room. View: A+ if you have an upper floor on the lake side Tip: they offer small beds in the large king rooms for a child to sleep on. Americans, be aware that this is called a BED, not a cot; a "cot" in New Zealand means a crib. I miscommunicated on the phone and showed up to a tiny crib for an 8yo instead of a bed. They fixed it but save yourself a hassle and say "we'd like an extra BED for a child" to be clear.

Dear apf_travels, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed review :) We're glad you enjoyed our location, stunning lake views, and stylish room design. We appreciate your feedback regarding storage space and room layout, as well as the challenges with the natural sulphur scent in Rotorua—it’s certainly a unique part of the area’s geothermal charm. We hope to welcome you back again for another memorable stay. Safe travels! Warm Regards, Kaushi Fernando

It was a very strange room layout. Did not find the "glass box" toilet and shower facilities a good idea and did not provide very good privacy

Hi Jane, Thanks for your feedback. Sorry to hear the room layout wasn’t quite what you expected. We understand that privacy is important, and we appreciate you sharing your thoughts. We’d love to welcome you back for a more comfortable stay next time. Let us know if there’s anything we can do to make your visit better. Best regards, Christian Ramos Front Office Team Pullman Rotorua
