Sudima Lake Rotorua

10/10 Excellent

"Great location close to the city"

Millennium Hotel Rotorua

8/10 Good

"This is the 2nd time we have stayed here. Great location & rooms have been really comfortable for 2 adults & 2 children. This trip was for my daughters 8th birthday & I had entered Run the Forrest Race. So it was perfect for what we needed it for. Really dark curtains so everyone had a sleep in. Downside - 2nd time we have only been supplied 3 towels when theres 4 of us."
