Great lake views and desk space to work on laptop from - looking out at lake.
Not much floor space in the twin room and the bathroom was basic and compact but everything was very tidy and adequate.

A break away in Rotorua
I quite enjoyed my stay at the Ibis Rotorua . Handy location to the lake . Simple but clean , tidy and warm . Staff were friendly and check in easy . I opted for the breakfast which is usual hotel spread but it had been there for a while so the hot food was a bit dried up . Otherwise my stay was great 🙂

Very comfortable, facilities were great when you consider you cam use the attached Novotel too. The service at the lobby especially at checkin was shambolic withnone person trying to check everyone in and out, a duty manager came out to help her out and saved the day, but still had to wait for half an hour with no updates after habing to wait for the room (this was way after the checkin tome too).

Check-in was very slow. We arrived 10 minutes before our scheduled check in time of 2:00 pm and had to wait an additional hour before our room was ready. There was a long line at reception until at least 6:00. Parking and laundry facilities were free and the location was good (close to lake)

Solid 1 star hotel.
Ibis Rotorua was terrible. Rooms were not ready until 2.5 hours after checkin time. Room was dirty and had very stained carpet. Broken chair in room. Could not enter building from downstairs carpark after 7pm as card reader was not working, had to walk up to street level and enter through front door. I would not recommend staying here.

No keycards for 2 days
When we arrived in the early evening, they could not check us in because they couldn't make keycards. The had us and many others in the lobby area, for some time. We went out for dinner and came back around 10. They still had not figured out the keycard issue, they let us into our room, but could not issue a keycard. Next morning, still no keycard, in the evening they finaly had keycards for some rooms. We were one of "the lucky ones" who finally got a roomkey.
Hotel parking spaces were very limited. fortunately street parking was available and free of charge.

Standard Ibis hotel. Clean, reasonably new, and economical. We are a family of three for couple of days for a small trip. It does the job. Lots of stress parking and limited hotel parking, but you can pay for $15 for a secure parking nearby Nevotel. If you are after a good stay at reasonable rates, Ibis can tick the box.
