Best Hotels in Hannahs Bay, New Zealand

Lovely place. Good breakfast. Great massages. Rooms comfortable, light and airy. Great bed!. Hot tubs and pools were nice and the location is ideal....on the Lake and near the town - 10min drive...also 10mins from small airport and from the Mud baths. Only negative - the restaurant and bar were closed for 2 days!! this WAS not mentioned before we booked..so had to go out an find breakfast 2 days - not a real issue but better to be fore warned than to be surprised ! Service and staff was good. Friendly engaging and helpful. Manager was very good

Lodge was spotlessly clean and well equipped. Lovely lake views and walls on the beach. Spa pool was amazing on a sunny afternoon. Hotel is quite a way from town ( much too far to walk) but access to town was easy and parking in town is not a problem.

I stayed in the Sudima Lake Rotorua Hotel for three nights while attending a conference. The Sudima was selected as it was the cheapest of the four listed by the conference organisers. The accommodation and buffet breakfasts were standard and wouldn’t in themselves warrant a review, either positive or negative. What did warrant a review, however, was the check-in experience. This is the reason for the level-two rating. Having stayed at a range of accommodation – from higher end to backpacker - I cannot recall anything like it, either here in New Zealand or overseas. There was one person at the reception desk and only one other guest checking-in before me. That check-in took a seemingly interminable time, but that can happen for whatever reason. My check-in appeared normal, but thereafter the experience ‘went to custard’. Assigned a room on the third floor I duly went with my bag to the room. Arriving there the magnetic door card wouldn’t open the door. I then returned to the reception desk, explained the situation and was provided with a new set of door cards. I then proceeded back to the third floor and, yes, the door cards this time successfully opened the door. However, upon entering the room I was surprised to find evidence that someone else was using the room. Material around the room showed that this person was also a conference attendee. (Interestingly there was a half drunk bottle of whisky on a table, but alas it was a blend and not a single malt so there was no temptation to take a few swigs.) Using the room’s telephone, I called the reception number but there was no response. Anxious that the room’s inhabitant may return I returned once more to the reception desk to be provided with a new room and corresponding door cards. Another ascent to the third floor finally eventuated with valid room occupancy at the Sudima Lake Rotorua Hotel. The time lapse since first entering the hotel stretched to about 40 minutes.

I love this hotel. To be honest, I didn’t expect much when it comes to old and vintage hotel. But when I entered the hotel, I found the hotel is quite special and unique. Yes, it’s old and vintage but it is also well-maintained. For the room, I like it because it has big windows including bathroom and the sunshine can get through. For the location, I like it because it is so close to the central bus stop, Eatery Streets and Polynesian Spa. Because I don’t drive so location is very important to me. Like many other places in NZ, this hotel seems to be short staffed too. But the staff still did the best to serve. They are nice and friendly. I wish I could stay in the hotels for a few more couples and enjoyed the unique atmosphere there. I would stay again if ever I go to Rotorua.

Nice hotel good location easy to get to main land city too but also close to all the major activities and beaches Room clean and spacious comfortable bed good view of ocean Rooftop pool and bar with view over ocean and beaches Staff friendly but a little bit more knowledge would have helped! Asked if we could hire a couple of cycles but said they don’t have any asked if they knew where we could hire them and they didn’t know but as soon as we walked down to the main road we found some self renting cycles… also asked where you can smoke and was directed to go through other hotel and out where the 7/11 24/7 shop was and there’s smoking area in courtyard but when we went back to our hotel we found a smoking area on the rooftop not sure why they didn’t tell us this… Entrance to hotel a little hard to find as you access it via underground car park or via the other hotel Would stay here again though..

The location is very good, right next to the i-site, it is very convenient to catch the intercity bus in the morning. Many restaurants nearby, Government Gardens, Polynesian baths, and a Tamaki Maori dinner event I participated in are all within a 10-minute walk. Hygiene is okay for backpackers’ hostels. They seem to wash the sheets themselves rather than outsource them, but I don’t know which is cleaner. I don’t know if this hostel is run by Indians. The staff are all Indians, so there are more Indians staying in. Everyone is very kind. The only one who wanted to complain is that the bathroom hook is too high. The 154's stature said that he couldn't reach it on tiptoe, and the staff responded that they had nothing to do. Fortunately, I carried a portable hanger at any time, barely reaching it. Otherwise, you can only put on the wet floor towel to change your clothes, just think about it😥

The location of the hotel is very central, just opposite the visitor center. The room size is not too big, but the shower room and bathroom are quite big. There are a lot of Chinese tourists coming in and out, and the sound insulation of the room is average, and it is easy to be disturbed by residents who don't like to close the door.
