Our group (5 adults) stayed here during our 3 week road trip across New Zealand. I wish we could have had this place at every stop, it was so enjoyable. The 2 bedroom spa apartment was perfect! It was very clean, had everything we could possibly need (even a washer and dryer at no extra cost), very spacious and had... More

We stayed 3 nights in a standard studio unit without spa (No 2) during the Te Matatini Festival. We paid $477 NZ which IMO wasn't value for money, but to be fair Rotorua was packed to the rafters and all accommodation providers were taking advantage of that. Accommodation was the usual motel accommodation that we encountered regularly in NZ. Our... More

Ann was amazing, so friendly & advised us of all the good places to go to in Rotorua. The bed was comfy & it was really nice to have our own private courtyard!

We thoroughly enjoyed our three nights at Ann's Volcanic. The motel was conveniently situated close to most activities and supermarkets, but not on a very busy road. Rooms were clean and homely (but a bit dated in decor) with a kitchenette well equipped for basic meals. The single beds were very comfortable but the queen bed quite old with a... More

Four friends and I stayed here for two nights during mid-December. They are NZ residents and the apartments were recommended to them by their friends who'd stayed there previously. The establishment is situated in an area of Rotorua which is fortunately not affected by the all-pervading sulfurous stink. There was a hiccup over the booking: my friend had telephoned a... More

Why would anyone want to stay in this filthy place? The rooms were discusting, with flies and cockroaches and so dusty that all the crockery had to be washed before it could be used. No sign of Anne either, so management were not prepared or "authorised" to do anything about it.
