Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    A must-do activity for any NZ holiday. We walked the longer paths, and were constantly amazed with the sights. Began with the 10.15am geyser, which was great, then moved on to see the fabulous coloured ponds and spectacular geothermal area.

    The place is easy to get to! Checking the weather forecast is essential to choose the best time to enjoy the views, especially since Rotorua has an unstable climate. I got a little rain in the middle of the tour, which was quite unpleasant, but the night in the middle of the trees is beautiful.

    Spectacular and the Lady Knox Geyser is a must on the visit. Staff are friendly and extremely helpful, the walk around the pools is pleasant but we advised there is A strong smell of sulphur.

    Worth the drive. Lovely, welcoming Maori people who have been giving tours to their village for over 100 years! Saw the geyser go off, learned a lot about Maori culture. Short hike to see more hot springs. Guide cooked corn on the cob in a spring for us to taste- yum! Nice gift shop with locally designed products. Excellent performance of traditional song/dance/haka. Can't recommend this enough! GO!

    I love the deluxe spa for its tranquility, views over the lake, free use of lockers and towels, access to the Priests Pool and heated recliners!.

    Treatments are relaxing and also rejuvenating after a several hours soaking .
    Highly recommend the Deluxe pools and spa

    Wonderful spot, staff are friendly and the pools are lovely. We rented a private pool and would highly recommend. Easy trip from Rotorua and could easily spend a few hours here.

    A stroll through the park is not to be missed, albeit you won’t find geysers but you will find mud pools, and steaming lakes. Very atmospheric and a great place to stroll around for an hour or so.

    Great wines and an experienced professional to lead the tasting. Bought several bottles to enjoy later. Would highly recommend this experience. The view is amazing, which is an obvious plus.

    The your guide was very informative and the tour itself was interesting and about the right amount of time.
    The ticket counter purchase was underwhelming and the pizza at the cafe average but the staff were friendly.

    One of New Zealand’s best kept secrets. This place is amazing. Absolutely beautiful hot springs about 38 degrees. And it’s free!

    Absolutely loved it , such a beautiful native new Zealand setting and happy friendly animals, even the lions came to say hello , the kids got to feed ducklings and wallabies and even a friendly little tui , 100% recommend for family's and yes it would be nice for the lions to have more space and hunt and be wild but they looked well taken care of and happy.

    I absolutely loved Rotorua! We stayed at Capri Motel which was very comfy and warm.
    We were there for a weekend but there was so much to see and do in the area that we could have stayed for 2 weeks!
