Andrea Jan 23, 2026 03:15:00 PM

Summary: We had a very unusual stay at the putaruru hotel. I didn't expect 5 star accommodation in a 2 star

Chris Jan 15, 2026 09:23:00 AM

Summary: Clean & tidy

Josiah Dec 31, 2025 10:45:30 AM

Summary: The hotel's very old and falling apart. Really not a good choice, can get better stay in Rotorua for 1 night

Paul Nov 27, 2025 03:56:56 AM

Summary: What a place, and not in the best way! Built in 1952 for the Queen's inauguration and for her to stay in, she never ended up staying here however and I think I can see why, probably in 1952 it was still a dump. We stayed in a regular room that felt more like an SRO than a hotel room. Yes it was clean however it was super, super dated! Obviously no renovations have been done since it was built. I would not stay here again.

Kathy Jul 19, 2025 05:03:32 AM

Summary: Art Deco features beautiful, waiting to see final renovations hope they maintain design styles

Kevin Jun 19, 2025 01:56:46 AM

Summary: My son and I stayed here after going to Hobbiton and making our way to Rotorua. When we arrived we thought the hotel was abandoned. I didn't see any cars parked here and it was dark. The front doors were locked. The front desk attendant then came out after we knocked and he was nice enough. He waited until we arrived at 9pm after messaging him (front desk hours closed at 6pm). He gave us a key and told us where to park. I asked him if the hotel was haunted and he laughed. It was a very creepy place. Run down, paint peeling off the walls and ceiling. It did not seem like anyone was staying there. The room was bare bones and not the like the pictures. It was quiet and it did the job as far as sleeping there but it was unsettling as well. I later learned it is under renovation but I didn't see anything like that. Would I stay there again? No, I don't think so. And usually I can handle your basic run down motel but not this one. Luckily it was only one night.

Summary: Just a wonderful hotel Now getting some overdue fixing up It’s so great to see someone cares Check it out

Robyn Mar 15, 2025 10:16:39 AM

Summary: For the price, it was decent... but if you ignore the unkept outside, ripped curtains on the right of the entry, ripped carpet on the stairs...the room was really clean! The shower was on another level old and dirty. There was, we assumed, full time residents staying there. On the corner of a main road, it was noisy and with no air conditioning, we had to have windows open.One 'share' kitchen was old and dirty with a bar fridge full of others things. It should be advertised as a 'back packers' accommodation. Cheap but not real cheerful!

Tim Feb 27, 2025 03:04:06 PM

Summary: Our biggest issue was not having hot water throughout our stay. We tried to have a shower soon after check in but discovered no hot water. This was not mentioned at check in or as soon as it was known - when we rang and asked they said it may be fixed tomorrow after our stay finished. Apart from that the property was a bit tired but had the essential amenities and was very clean.

Nagashen Feb 20, 2025 04:35:49 PM

Summary: Clean. Friendly staff. In urgent need of modernization, or tidied up. Has potential. But for the price it's reasonable value.
