Hotels and Accommodation in Rotorua












New Zealand Hotel and Accommodation in Rotorua

Rotorua, New ZealandRotorua and its surrounding lakes is the most popular tourist area of the North Island and abounds with quality hotels, motor lodges, and motels.

Access is very easy with bus, road and frequent flights with Air New Zealand, Qantas New Zealand and a variety of other airlines. As Rotorua is only 2-3 hours drive from Auckland, an hour from Hamilton and 45 minutes from Taupo and Tauranga, it′s within easy reach of the whole of the North Island.

With boiling mud pools, gushing geysers and bubbling hot springs, it has been nicknamed "Sulphur  City" because of the strong smell of sulphurous gases that you come across occasionally. With geothermal areas close to the city at Whakarewarewa with its large Maori cultural centre, the area caters for the tourist with a wide range of cultural shows and feasts (hangi).

The most popular thermal pool "The Polynesian Spa" is in the Government Gardens which is laid out in traditional English fashion with roses bushes, wide green lawns, croquet and petanque rings and the occasional steaming pool. This Spa was opened in 1886 and has several modern pools. With the ample geothermal energy most hotels and motels have their own indoor private spa pools attached.

The area has a wide range of attractions for everybody ranging from White Water Rafting on the Rangitaiki River, Rainbow Trout fishing on the lakes, Tandem Skydiving from Rotorua Airport and Jet boating on the Waikato River. Or even try out your driving skills in a 4WD off roader in the country.

Take a trip on the gondola up to Mt Ngongotaha for a look at the panoramic views and a ride down the hill on a Luge (toboggan) is an experience not to be missed. Then there is the Zorb - an inflatable double plastic sphere where you roll down hill for 150 meters. Also on the mountain is a flight simulator, shooting range, and mini-golf course.

For the less active there is a whole range of activities ranging from the Agrodome with demonstrations of sheep shearing and sheepdog displays. A dairy display, farmyard nursery and dairy farm milking is included. A good level walk is the Rainbow springs Trout and Wildlife Sanctuary with displays of Trout (brown and rainbow), a aviary and a nocturnal Kiwi House. Also worth a visit is the Orchard Gardens which bloom all year around, plus there is Micro-world where you can watch the bugs in close detail. One of the wonders in this complex is the water organ with over 900 jets which puts on a 15 minute ballet-like display every hour on the hour. (A good place to rest the feet after all the shopping and walking.)

Just out of Rotorua is the Buried Village with its local history and tragic tales of the Tarawera Eruption of 1886 which destroyed the world renowned silicon Pink and White Terraces. Also well worth the effort is the 4WD trip up Mt Tarawera to view the chasm and look out on the area it devastated. Of the fun things to do there is the largest hedge maze in New Zealand - the Fairbank Maze by the airport and at Te Ngae Park is a 3-D wooded maze.

Rotorua is a fun place to visit with the whole family and there is heaps to do and enjoy - In this page we have only touched on the wide variety of things to do and even then we almost forgot about the Lakeland Queen paddle steamer on Lake Rotorua.
