Rydges Rotorua Expert Review
Thomas Ellery
Rydges Rotorua is a nice hotel with a good location. It is right next to the town's Geo Thermal Parks and Maori Village, and it is only a short drive to the Redwoods Forest as well. The gym has a nice little range of equipment, and the pool is a good size and very warm.
Top tip: If you have time check out the Kuirau Park - its free and has lots of bubbling mud, steam and natural geo thermo features and you can also sit and soak your legs for free in the natural thermal pools - it’s about a half hours walk or five minutes in a car.

Trailfinders Hotel Classification Guide
Modest accommodation with basic facilities, representing good value where price is the main priority.
Simple, comfortable accommodation and facilities offering good value for the destination.
Good standard of accommodation and/or facilities and overall a higher level of service may be expected.
High international standards of accommodation and facilities where luxury and quality of service are priorities.
Indicates that the property offers a higher than average level of accommodation and facilities when compared to other properties of the same classification.
Unique, often smaller and sometimes historic properties, which offer individual charm and are consequently very popular. They offer the standards of accommodation indicated by their classification but rooms may be smaller than average and not all facilities may be available.
Trailfinders classifications are for your guidance only and do not mirror any international "star rating" system. In each case, the full description of the property should be read and used in conjunction with the classification indicated. A 3★ city hotel, for example, may be more expensive than a 4★ if it is in a prime location. Classifications are unique to a destination and can reflect local or regional variations in quality and service, so a 5★ in a particular area may not be comparable with a 5★ elsewhere.
