Rydges Rotorua  

On the edge of Whakarewarewa Thermal Reserve, minutes from Rotorua’s town centre and a short drive from the airport. Set in native bush beside steaming geysers, this family-friendly city and business hotel puts mountain bike trails, golf and Maori cultural attractions close at hand.

Take a dip in the geothermally heated outdoor pool or unwind in the spa tub and garden spa. There’s also an indoor pool, a fitness centre, bike wash and secure storage for cyclists, a complimentary shuttle to nearby shops and ample on-site parking. Perfect for families and outdoor adventurers.

An on-site restaurant focuses on local flavours, supported by a bar/lounge and a café for lighter bites. Buffet breakfasts are available daily (for a fee) and 24-hour room service keeps late arrivals or families covered.
