The clean crisp tidiness of the property. The owner really thought about the clientele that visit Rotorua. I especially liked the playground. My unit I thoroughly enjoyed. I’m going to take my mum there next year. The above dates, i unfortunately booked them incorrectly. I thought they were the dates for Labour Weekend. However, I was lucky to book for one night, 27-28 October, 2024 due to vacancies available.

I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated staying overnight, because it’s a time out of the Far North, to watch and catch up with my son, who has lived in Australia for the past 18 years. I couldn’t fault the proprietor, who walked me and my husband through the unit showing and explaining about the extra kaupapa of Fairy Spring Motel.

I liked everything about it.The manager and his wife were very cooperative. We had lots of luggage after checking out and were worried about keeping it since our van to Auckland was to arrive later but he helped us to keep everything in a safe place. Location is ideal for tourists not having a vehicle as three attractions are at walking distance namely Mitai Maori, 3D Art and the Skyline. Places to eat like McDonald's, Kebab, Wendy's, Burger King are at a 20 minutes walking distance.

Absolutely nothing.

Great spot for the kids to play outside the rooms. Room has what you need. It’s not luxurious but it’s perfect to rest in after exploring all day. The staff were lovely. Crazy close to so many activities and town. Luge is right next door!

The bed was a little hard (for me) but the other person staying with me said their bed was perfect so each to their own!

The location was very central to where I needed to be, the room was clean and warm. The bed was comfortable, the traffic noise from the road was minimal.

The only thing was that the place looked like it could do with a bit of a spruce up. A water blasting and paint job plus new carpets would make a big difference to the look of the place.

Location, friendly staff. Facilities were clean and stock was there (coffee plunger was a nice addition).

The stay was great. It would have been nice if the fridge was turned on before our arrival to be able to put things in straight away as we had to wait for it to cool. A few of the pillows were very very thin also so we did wake with a slightly sore neck. Other than those two items the stay was excellent and very appreciative.
