Lovely, bright and very relaxing accommodation. We loved our stay here and just wish it could have been longer than 2 days. The owners are very friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay again. Thank you! Maureen Burgess

We stayed 2 nights out of our week-long holiday in Rotorua during the First Term school holidays. It is located off the main street in a residential area. It has a lovely, thermally heated outdoor pool and 2 indoor separated spa pools. The kitchenette and the bathroom are separated from the living area. We had a Lazyboy in our unit... More

We were upgraded to a room with a hot tub and quite enjoyed it. We loved the heated pool under the stars and had a lovely swim the evening of our arrival - the only night with clear skies. We also enjoyed the hostesses suggestion for dinner at the Skyview and an evening visit to the Kiwi house at Rainbow... More

We had a very pleasant and comfortable stay. It is in a nice quiet street. The distinct odour of Rotorua is apparent outside but you soon get used to it. We were grateful that we could have our dog with us in our room but we did bring her crate and beanbag so she felt at home. The hot tub... More

If you want a clean, reasonably priced motel close to Rotorua's town centre with really friendly and helpful management, you won't regret staying at the Sport of Kings. We were there for four nights whilst on a whistle stop tour of NZ and were very happy with our selection. Our hosts were really interested in our stay, gave us loads... More

We stayed here for 2 nights with our Jack Russell again :) Room was Clean and Tidy and we were able to benefit from a breakfast special they had running on TripAdvisor and received a Continental breakfast one morning for free. Pool was still great and we found out about the 2 spa pools available (no extra charge) for use... More

We have just stayed at this Motel. The room was immaculate and the bed was lovely and comfortable. We really enjoyed the Thermal pool, and used it alot on our overnight stay. On leaving at 9'oclock, we were really annoyed with a Rally Car of Sorts, burning up right outside our room and the fumes poured into our room. If... More

We visited the Sport of Kings for the second time recently and found it to be just as good as two years ago. The rooms are excellent, we discovered they are doing renovations and our room is having a new bathroom and kitchen in shortly. The pool is lovely and very well maintained. The location is quiet, but near enough... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hosts we're very helpful in assosting us organise our activities. The room was spacious and had all necessary facilities. The motel is as quiet as promised being just off the main road.
