We enjoyed staying at Prince’s Gate Hotel. The on-site hot springs with three pools in the hotel garden were the best treat. We had a one-bedroom apartment for the two of us, which felt quite spacious, although the kitchen facility was bare minimum. The hotel is within walking distance of downtown Rotorua, with ample dining choices. We also liked the hotel being close to the essential sightseeing places, such as a 10-minute drive to Te Puia (a must-see while in Rotorua). The hotel restaurant, Duke’s Restaurant and Bar, needs to improve their food quality. I ordered the roasted pork loin, but most of the pork came with fat, so I left half of the plate untouched. Overall, the staff were warm and very friendly. Thank you!
