Affordable grandeur! There was also free parking in the hotel carpark nearby. The place looks a little 'rustic' in spots now, in the room particularly. It's obviously older now, not a modern hotel. However this allowed us to book at a price we can afford, which we appreciate, and enjoy the amenities like the huge spa bath with marble tiles, and to enjoy our own breakfast to have on our room's balcony overlooking a lovely park view. Would happily stay here again.

Couple of spiders in the spa bath room which spooked me.

Nice and spacious and comfortable too.

Bottled water wasn’t available at all , I guess they can always stock a few bottles just in case any guests prefer it over tap water. Response on the room service number wasn’t prompt at all, we would have to make couple of attempts for our call to be answered. Kitchenette did not have microwave, pans, cutlery etc. Only water kettle and glasses were provided. Otherwise overall stay was comfortable besides the things that I mentioned, which could have made it an even more better experience. Guest laundry was available, which was very useful. Location, spacious room, convenient parking area etc were the highlights.

The room was very spacious. Beds were clean and comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We couldn't prepare our own breakfast due to no plates or suitable.cutlery in the room but the buffet breakfast was great. Lots of variety. The restaurants dinner menue had a nice variety also.

The bathroom was a little tired. Missing grout between tiles and a stained hand basin. There were cups and glasses in the kitchen cabinet but only 2 tea spoons. No dish liquid or scrub brush to clean used cups. There was coffee and standard tea available but nothing for non tea/ coffee drinkers.

Spacious room with 2 king size beds with a view. We were upgraded

A bit dated. Old furniture and bathroom door had suffered water damage and the door would not close properly

Location is great, not far from the main city center and lake front area; easy to get around. Plenty of free parking to the side of the hotel (park yourself). Hotel itself is a bit dated but everything very clean. We had a ground floor room, it was very spacious. Had a shower and large spa bath in a funny bit off the main room. We had the buffet breakfast which was of a decent standard, usual sort of selection.

Noise from other rooms, probably because of the age of the hotel. When people were having showers or running water there was a bit of noise but not a major problem.

I really appreciated the convenient location of Arawa Park Hotel, especially since it’s just a short distance from key attractions in Rotorua. I chose it again for its excellent value for money. The bed was incredibly comfortable, which made for a great night’s sleep after a day of exploring. The breakfast, while simple, was decent and provided just what we needed to start the day.

For a quick stay as a tourist, it’s more than adequate. If you're looking for something more luxurious or with more amenities, this might not be the best choice. The breakfast could have had a bit more variety or a higher quality selection. But honestly, for the price, this is a minor issue.

As we drove down on Friday 3rd Jan, from Auckland after 5pm we arrived at Arawa Part Hotel at 9pm we all were feeling exhausted but the two males at Reception were absolutely amazing. As we walked into Room 218 wow, we felt like we walked into Hollywood Boulevard just beautiful seeing the two beds and how spacious it was it was exactly what we were looking forward to. But on Sunday Jan 5th the Buffet breakfast wow the staff the services and food were amazing. My cousin who was looking forward to the Buffet Breakfast she pile her bowl up with muesli yoghurt and Plums but she later found out it was Beetroot ummmmmmmmmmmm sorry about that...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 the gentleman at the front counter that Sunday morning, he was so awesome greeting us with a massive smile well done to all the staff there even the house keeping staff Wow 10/10. Keep up the excellent standard we need you here in Auckland you could give some teachings up here.............Other than that you are all doing an excellent job...Keep smiling...

I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT ARAWA PARK HOTEL.

Room was big enough for a family of 2 adults and 3 young kids. enough room for us to sleep and change. buffet breakfast was great. TV had all apps, so easy enough to log in with your account. overall cleanliness was great. would stay again.

Beds were a little soft for my liking, but not a deal breaker. The bathroom looked a bit outdated. and the toilet was too high to use for 2 of my kids, had to prop them up. overall stay was great. there was music all night somewhere from level 2, which disrupted our sleep.

Well , we had an unfortunate incident on our first night Wed 3rd April, when the water was too hot to have a shower, I nearly got burnt. It was late but I called reception to see if they could help. A young lady called Angel came and helped us, she was so understanding and helpful, she checked other rooms and then transferred us to another room. She was our angel and a credit to your hotel. The bed was awesomely comfortable and we had breakfast and that was lovely as well. So thankyou Arawa Hotel for making our break away from the normal a pleasant one.

Can't think of anything to say ti this.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. I can't say enough nice things about the staff. I had an issue with a double booking due to expedia, which was resolved with the help of staff. I also had a question about a reservation for a tour that we were due to go on, and again the staff was super helpful and got us in touch with the tour to verify our reservation.

I thought the bathroom could have been cleaner in our room. It may have just been an older room, but it seemed like it could have been cleaner. Otherwise the room was clean.
