Awa Hotel

We booked a deluxe twin room with mountain views. The check in process was seamless. The staff treated us great the whole 11 night stay. The room was modern and very clean. Our beds were different firmness but that worked great for us as we have different preferences. The rooms are very sound proof and although the road was right outside our window we could barely hear it. This definitely isn’t some 5 star hotel, and for the affordable price you shouldn’t expect that. However I was truly blown away by our great experience here. I’d recommend a car if you’re staying here. It’s about 5 minute drive out of town, but I prefer it that way. We stay frequently in Rotorua and this will now be the hotel we stay with every time. Thank you to the team at Awa for making our stay so comfortable.

Strongly recommend. Very friendly and helpful stuff. Location is great. My room is very nice and clean. I love it very much. I tried safe and accidentally locked it and couldn't unlock. Reception helped. It was very impressive. Also very yummy food. I really enjoyed hot and spicy soup. The size of meal is impressive. I like it all. Five stars all around.

Decent stay overall, but nothing outstanding. The room was comfortable. Male Staff on the reception is not interested to give rooms and to give information about overall. Our room was available to move even though reception hold the room stating room is not cleaned and for cleaning they needs 2 hrs time. When I asked for the reason he said one day before there was party and they were busy. we supposed to enter room at 5pm because we travelled from Auckland but due to reception hold the room until 7:30pm We did check in late in the night. During the time we visited redwood night light. Location is convenient, but amenities were fairly basic for the price. Good for a short stopover, but not a memorable stay.
