Arista of Rotorua Motel

big and spacious with a good amount of space to cook eat and sleep but with only one toilet, it dampens the experience quite a lot. the shower was also old and for some reason you had to turn the shower past the cold water to get the hot water, which made for an unpleasant feel when its cold. service however was welcoming and prompt

I really liked the huge amount of space available and the full set of kitchen utensils on offer that made it very easy to pack my luggage and to cook up some items. Although it's somewhat far from the city centre, it's still very manageable.nnHowever, there's still a lot to be desired. The toilets were very old and had a very musty feel in general which made showers and by in large any visit to the toilet feel very uncomfortable. The shower head was also very low and the design of the shower forced you to experience moments of frigid cold water before the warm water is able to come out. Moreover, it's also a little baffling that a room with four beds only has one singular bathroom, which makes things very inefficient if you're staying with a big group. Moreover, the bathtub and the laundry machines has definitely seen better ages, which made them borderline unusable.nnDon't get me wrong, its definitely a decent place to stay in, but it'll be much better if they can sort out the rough edges.

We had a lovely stay here and I recommend it to anyone visiting Rotorua. We were getting ready for a wedding and the staff were super accommodating for our needs. Excellent communication, great staff and fabulous clean rooms. 10/10

Stayed here 3 times now. Perfect location, great service. Rooms are like a small town house, yet very spacious. Rooms are well set out, clean, comfortable and have everything you need. The bed and pillows are comfortable and give us a great sleep im fussy about my pillows/bed. We love the spa, theres great pressure in the shower. We go nowhere else to stay when we come to rotorua. We 100% recommend to stay here, bonus is the owners are local and invested in ensuring you have a comfortable stay.nThanks so much, Rav and Jess

Wow! What a place :nnAll I can do is rave about this place. Sure there are few niggles, but Arista of Rotorua punches WELL above it's weight.nnI had a free night owing on my Hotels account, so decided to stop over in Rotorua for the night. My usual place was booked out, as was many other accommodation providers. Arista had one room left which was a larger family apartment. More than what this solo traveller needed, but I liked the look of it, so I booked in.nnVery friendly greeting from the lady at Reception, who walked me over to my room and showed me the various features. Parking is directly outside each of the rooms. My apartment was very light and airy, making it's large size, feel even larger. There is a large Kitchenette, with everything you would need to cook a decent meal, and there was PROPER milk! It also had a large dining table.nnNext to a King Bed there is a large Sofa and a couple of easy chairs in front of a large TV. The TVs are well set up with all the Freeview Channels. You can also Cast your Streaming Apps to the TV which is awesome. The Internet is very fast and I had no issues connecting to the Telly, and also streaming Series and Movies in HD.nnA ranch slider out the back leads to a very private, enclosed courtyard with a Spa Tub. Upstairs in the apartment is a Mezzanine level which features a large walk in wardrobe, 2 Single Beds, One Queen Bed and another large Telly.nnA large air conditioning unit kept the whole unit nice and cool, on what was a very muggy and hot night. The Bathroom is dated, but has been spruced up.nnMy only niggles were with some of the Mugs and Cutlery which were not very clean, and also the windows which were all really filthy! Especially the ones facing Fenton Street. All small things :nnWhat I really really loved was how the Owners shared their journey with the purchase and renovation of what was a very dated Motel, and also their personal journey with their Son's health battles. There was a well presented little book in the room, and also on the TV infotainment page.. I have spent so much time at Starship and Ronald McDonald House over the years. The RMH Charity is one very close to my heart, and to see Arista supporting them makes me want to rate them 11/10!nnKeep up the amazing work Arista Team. I look forward to a return visit. : Do not hesitate to book in here - even if your just a solo traveller and have no need for a massive family unit - you will love it all the same :
