We had a wonderful stay here! Older facilities but very comfortable and cosy. Parking was a bit challenging as the car parks are quite small for all the bigger vehicles but made it work. Wonderful service! The buffet breakfast was perfect and set us up well for the day. A beautiful place to stay, it was nice to be a little bit out of the city of Rotorua.

First let me start by saying the staff at VR Resort in Rotorua was amazing, but the facilities are in dire need of cleaning and maintenance. At one point in time I could see this was a pristine hotel, but as we walked into our room the drapes had mold, the comforter had bleach stains, the closet door handle came off and the lamp broke in half as we went to turn it on. We decided to go to the sauna and the ceiling had white mold growing. The more we looked around the more we noticed minor fixes that would have improved the visual representation that the facilities were cared for. In addition, cleanliness is a factor, having garbage left in the hallways is not a good representation and guest laundry areas have to be cleaned if they are opened to guest.

This property is clearly older and while that is not necessarily a problem, there is some maintenance that needs to be addressed. There was very noticeable water damage to the sealing of the shower and the sink faucet was loose enough to move around whenever you touch it even lightly. The hot water kettle kept turning off (which is fine if you keep turning it back on) but it had a smell that I wasn’t a fan of. The staff was kind and helpful when we saw them but this is a very large building (apparently part time-share) and only spoke to a couple of people the two days we were there. Overall, the beds were soft, the water pressure was good, and the room was okay for the price. If it were a little closer to the city or the property was in a little better condition it would have been solid.

Overall value for money was ok. We would stay there again. It was clean but the bathroom was old and tired and needed a deep surface clean/scrub. I'm not sure it really meets its 4 star rating. The taps in the bathroom and the shower did not have hot and cold identifiers on the them. The plug didn't have a centre piece for pulling it out of the plug hole. We had to hunt through every cupboard to find things. Nothing was labelled - and there were no instructions about where things were. The bed, carpet and curtains were fresh and new looking. The bed was very comfortable and temperature control easy with the heat pump. The wine glasses were not matching ( a small detail I know - but its not what you would expect in a 4 star rated hotel). TV was excellent and had a good range of channels, Wifi was excellent and there was ample extra lighting and charger/usb plugs. Check in and out was easy. Staff were pleasant enough. The grounds look a bit tired but coming in to winter that isn't surprising.
