Jack & Di's Lakefront Motel, Rotorua, New Zealand

Expensive for the remote location. But the room was big and the manager helpful

Alright place forovernight stay.

This place is 10km out of town. It has a similar name to "Jack & Di's Lakeview" which is located right in the town centre of Rotorua. I will call it a deceptive conduct by having such a similar name to another operator when you are located 10km out of town and located in Ngongotaha. This is no longer in Rotorua. Especially in a small town like Rotorua, 10km makes a big different, it should not be listed as in Rotorua. If I have known the location I would not have booked in the first place. Having said that, the interior is very specious and has been renovated recently. There's not much facilities at the place except for a laundry room and a garden. Exterior is very dated, belongs in the 60s or 70s.

Ken, the manager was very friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean and functional. Location was outstanding, right on the lake. We will stay again when we return. Thx!

It was a okay stay for 2 nights especially if you plan to do fly fishing on the lake or if you are seeing attraction nearby like Argodome, Skyline, Rainbow Springs...etc. It is motel quality but it was clean and kids loved the trampoline at the backyard to bounce in it many times. Other parts of backyard seems to be run down with broken little mini golf and BBQ. We had free kayak as we stayed for 2 nights but cold to use it in the lake for us. Self serve laundry is a bit high at $6 with a very small capacity per load and the clothes are still semi wet after paying the dryer to go a cycle.
