FREE PARKING IS GREAT but have to come here to check-in or return before sunset or you’ll never find a good spot food options are pretty great heated pool and tubs are great but wish they ran to midnight at least considering hotels are social places, the pool/tubs close too early at 9:30pm :( we found that out too late on the second night so we were sad, had to try in the morning instead. rooms look dated and the bathroom was yellowing, the carpet looked really gross so we wore the slippers the whole time however the beds were very very immaculate and clean, and soft. i am glad for that. some of the beds in new Auckland hotels are awful compared to the ones here at Rydges Rotorua.
