Great spot!!! What a wonderful hotel in central Rotorua. Having the hot springs pools on site was AMAZING + lovely and unique rooms. They are smaller rooms as this is a historic hotel, but the space and location are worth it!

We enjoyed our stay at Princes Gate. We would like to acknowledge the efficient, respectful and welcoming staff. Our room was clean, spacious, warm and had everything we needed. The 2 dining room staff coped so well on the night when there were large numbers of guests and they were obviously understaffed. They were very busy and maintained an excellent, friendly, professional service. We enjoyed the breakfast and appreciated the range of food available. We thought the prices for the evening meals were excessive. Limited parking available.

Overall a charming property with a very spacious room at a good rate. A/C and heating both worked very well. Great location right within walking distance to main dining and shopping area. Couple things to note is there is no elevator at the property but staff was able to assist with bringing luggage up. It is also private entrance to the rooms, like motel style

Staff is friendly, room is clean and with beautiful decorations, breakfast is delicious but at the end all the fruits are gone, no replacements, the 19th century building is well maintained, the piano in the lounge area is definitely a plus!

The staff were attentive and accommodating. The toilets need an upgrade. The breakfast buffet were short of food, we were not able to enjoy the food as they ran out of almost all the food for breakfast. We enjoyed the public pool as well as the private pool,
