We stayed 3 nights in a private room at Rock Solid. The first room we got assigned was just below the lounge area and given the walls are so thin it really seemed like a group of people was in our room. The manager was very nice and moved us into a different room- walls still thin but at least in a different location vs the first room. The common areas are big and clean + you get 50% discount on the climbing wall gym which we used!

It was in the center of Rotorua city, so the location was good.
The shared kitchen was sometimes crowded, but there were sofas and lounges that we could use freely.
There were no railings above the bunk beds, and the stairs to the top were steep and scary.
The guy at the reception was very friendly!

Everything was good, more empty than expected and that is amazing for be quiet but if you want to know people it’s not the best hostel

The room facilities are a bit old, but fortunately they are relatively clean. The front desk service is good and there is a kitchen for cooking.

The place was spacious and open overall. The kitchen was well equipped, and the dining area had plenty of seating.

A good backpacking hostel. It is a good place to train children's travel ability. You can arrive late and use the password box to get the key. The area is safe and I arrived there at 11 o'clock in the middle of the night. I got the key smoothly according to the instructions in the email. As a private room in a youth hostel, it has a clean bed, shelf, and heater. I think the conditions are acceptable.

Strategically located at the city center, this place offers great convenience to a lot of restaurants nearby. The infamous Polynesian spa is within walking distance (about 5 minutes walk) and other attractions such as government gardens, sulphur point, lake Rotorua etc. are within walking distance. We got a double room for more privacy, basic amenities are available but I do not think there is a hairdryer (I brought mine anyway) so prepare one if you were to stay here.
