Hotels With Breakfast in Bay of Plenty, New Zealand

Hotel is located at city centre and we found the room to be comfortable and with good basic amenities. No room slipper, shaver like most hotels in Asia, we were provided with shower gel, shampoo, shower cap, vanity kit. Hotel also has gym, pool and hot tub. Overall a pleasant stay with comfortable bed.

The room is clean and spacious. The breakfast quality can be improved. It’s clean but presentation can be better. The buffet spread can be more, food taste good. Will recommend my friends.

Strongly recommend this hotel, especially for families with children. There’s an outdoor heated pool with sauna which was perfect to end the day with. Also comes with a playroom with table tennis, foosball, table hockey which is great for family bonding. Kids dine free with paying adults so is great for family. Breakfast spread was good! Highly recommended!

We enjoyed the stay in Armitage. Many restaurants nearby. The room is clean. And the staff is helpful when the air conditioning is not working in our room.

The location is very central and convenient. Staff are friendly and very helpful. The room has a comfortable bed and luxuriously roomy bathroom. We charged our electric car overnight in the hotel’s car park. Our family of three had a comfortable stay throughout. We would definitely book this place again.

Stayed here for a two day staycation away from Auckland. This hotel was formally Rydges Rotorua. The premises was a little bit dated but otherwise very comfortable and satisfactory. From check in to check out the staff were fantastic. My room was serviced on my second day of the stay which was very much appreciated. I had dinner in the restaurant on the first night of my stay and that was also fantastic. And also a couple of beverages at the bar. I was also upgraded into a room that had a spa bath and a view of the Rotorua racecourse. I would highly recommend this hotel 

The hotel was located right next to the Polynesian Spa and a long walking/biking path around the geothermal area. It's also near restaurants and a grocery store for lots of food options. The room was clean and comfortable, but due to our location on the first floor near the parking lot and major walkway, we heard everyone coming and going. If you're a light sleeper, request an upper floor room, and hopefully you won't hear people in the hallway/parking lot/walkway like we did. Also, I have to be honest, the sulphur smell was so strong at times I was gagging and it woke me up from a dead sleep. Knowing it will smell and experiencing it are two different things! Mostly for this reason, I wouldn't stay here again.

Not great considering the cost to stay. We had to wait 10 minutes for someone to turn up at the reception, and then we had to ask twice for assistance to check in.  Little to no hot water (tepid would be accurate) meant we had to walk out of the complex (with towels and toiletries) and down the main street and back into another room at the other end of the complex to take showers - both nights! Not at all pleasant as it was quite cold and very inconvenient.  And the spa didn’t work and was out of operation. Probably due to no hot water.  No lift meant lugging suitcases up a lot of stairs and no one to help.  Certainly wasn’t a great place to stay. Think we could have stayed somewhere better at half the price and less trouble.

Conveniently located. Just a 5-10mins walk from the isite bus stop. Many restaurants nearby. Room is located on the ground floor. Room is slightly small and is quite packed with 4pax in the room. But the bathroom is huge.

Great location in the heart of Rotorua, right next door to the lake and Eat Street restaurants and came highly recommended to us, but left us a little disappointed - especially for the price. Room a little outdated, holes in the blinds which let the light in, dirty grout in the shower and the shower head was broken and the glasses were dirty. I never ever leave a bad review, but after a great experience at 4 other different hotels across NZ this trip, the front desk lady on arrival at the Novotel was not the friendliest - it felt like we were an inconvenience to her. It was check in time and she was the only staff member on with a queue of people. On a positive note, the bed was comfortable.
