Regent of Rotorua  

In the heart of Rotorua, a boutique hotel a short walk from Eat Street, the lakefront, Government Gardens and the convention centre. Matariki Hangi & Maori Cultural Performance, Rotorua Night Market and the i-SITE visitor centre are all within easy walking distance.

Just 35 rooms with a warm, classic-meets-modern feel. Expect Egyptian cotton sheets, down comforters, refrigerators and microwaves in-room, plus LCD TVs (satellite), DVD players in some rooms and rainfall showerheads with complimentary toiletries. The lobby shows off a fireplace and the property offers thoughtful touches like bathrobes and a mountain bike wash area.

Soak in a natural mineral hot spring, choose between a heated outdoor pool or an indoor pool, or sweat it out in the sauna and fitness centre. There’s a poolside bar and a concierge on hand. Wedding services, banquet facilities and secure bike storage make this a practical pick for active and social travelers. Complimentary wired and wireless internet and on-site parking are available.
