No staff on Reception. They should have a bell to summon staff to front desk rather than having guests calling out to see if any staff can hear and /or come to receive guests to check in and or to assist with enquires.

The room price was good and I was upgraded to a larger deluxe room with a balcony. The bed was very comfortable. However, the decor was very dated and looks tired, particularly the bathroom. The shower handle was detached although still usable. The main hallway carpets had large stains on them. I believe if the hotel was given a good upgrade and redecorated, this would be a very nice place to stay. I would consider staying again.

No tea towel, cutlery & plates in the room The beds are very good, just the right comfort. Good shower water pressure, clean linen & towels, hotel service is friendly. V/good breakfast & service.

Very helpful staff, and gave us an early check in free of charge. The bathroom was quite dirty though and the shower wouldn’t go hot the next morning. Building is a little run down but it was nice enough, and good enough for what we needed.

Arawa hotel is a fine option for the Rotorua area. It is a bit old. The room is very spacious, but most things in the room look relatively old. The restaurant though is very good and very spacious! Staff service (both at lobby front desk and the restaurant) is excellent. There are some restaurants around the area which are good as well.

The property was in great condition. We liked our room which was superior Queen room had two very comfortable queen beds. Bathroom was nice and clean. Room had air conditioning which was the plus point. There was a ceiling fan too. Will recommend to people with young kids as have a lot of space for kids to run around and it was very quiet at night so they can sleep better.

Great value for the price. It was a little run down, but we expected that so we were very happy with what we got for the price. The staff were happy ro store our bukes free if charge, the parking is free, easy and convenient, the room was a great size and had everything we needed including a good size fridge. Great size for a family of 4. Nice and peaceful, we only heard the sound of cicadas outside our window.

Level 1 had no ramp to get to level do we had to lift all suitcases up stairs. Long walk to room from entry point. Received complementary upgrade to spa suite where spa was disconnected and not working. On the upside, it was well priced, it was quiet and clean enough for an older hotel. Felt like an old hospital converted to a hotel?
