Had an amazing stay on NYE and NY day... what better way to end one year and bring in the next... The service was next level! Very friendly staff, even the ones that we just met in the elevator. We had room service dinner from the restaurant as we arrived too late to book a table in the very busy restaurant... the meal and cocktails were divine! We then watched the fireworks across the city in our deluxe city views room, which was wonderful! Best bircher muesli for breakfast!!! thank you for separating the fruit on the buffet. I am allergic to pineapple and not many places seperate it, so I really appreciated the thoughtfulness. All in all a fantastic experience!

Spacious Rooms, Great Location — but a Very Unfamily-Friendly Design

TripAdvisor rating 4.0/5

sue_singh TripAdvisor review

We stayed at the Pullman Hotel Rotorua and overall had a mixed experience, largely due to an unusual and impractical room layout. The positives: - The location is excellent — walking distance to everything important, especially Eat Street, which is a huge plus. - Rooms are very large, with plenty of space. - Amenities are good, and the hotel is very clean throughout. - The shower is outstanding — huge, excellent water pressure, and genuinely one of the highlights. - Staff provided great service and were helpful and professional. The downsides: - We specifically requested an interleading (interconnecting) room, but the setup was extremely strange and impractical: - The two rooms were at the end of the corridor, accessed via a separate shared door that was meant to secure both rooms. - However, the individual room doors do not remain open (we requested door stoppers) and the outer shared door was broken so we couldn't actually leave the room doors open. - With kids, this setup was very inconvenient and frustrating, defeating the purpose of requesting interconnecting rooms. - While the rooms are large, the layout is bizarre - poorly designed, making the space feel awkward and inefficient rather than functional. Overall: The Pullman Rotorua does a lot right — cleanliness, service, showers, and location are all strong. Unfortunately, the room design and interleading setup are poorly thought out, especially for families, and detract from what could otherwise be a great stay. Verdict: Excellent luxury feel, location and amenities, but our room design in particular made it far less family-friendly than expected.
