The hotel is overrated. The room was marketed as a top of line room but in reality, it was nothing but a studio with a big bathroom. It missed the mark. The TV was useless, pay per view and you had to set up an account, no sky, and sometimes the remote never worked e.g we couldn't get in-room dining to work we had to ring up after trying for half an hour, parking was shocking, dinner was not nice paid an arm and a leg for a meal that wasn't cooked to standard and the cut of meat was cheap. For what we paid I dont think it was worth it. WOnt be goping back to the Pullman.

Didn’t like that there wasn’t a bathroom. Toilet had a stall style door so there wasn’t any privacy. Yuck!

Our stay at the Pullman was excellent. Couldn't ask for a better location. The only grizzle I have is that it cost NZD$33.00 for a bowl of fries and lemonade. They have implemented a "tray" surcharge of NZD$10.00 and I think this is not necessary at all. Room service is part of the perks of staying at a 5 star resort, and this charge is bogus.

The room was nice, but I wouldn't say Lake view, more views of roofs. The room lacked small details like hook somewhere to hang your towel.

Dear Guest Thank you for your feedback on your recent stay at the Pullman Hotel in Rotorua. We appreciate you taking the time to provide your feedback, we have various lake view rooms and while most of them have full lake views, some rooms have some partial obstructions for the lake views. Thank you for advising us about the hooks, we will pass this onto the Maintenance team to rectify. We are always looking at ways of improving and we thank you for your comments. We hope to welcome you sometimes again in the future. Yours Sincerely Gurinder Singh Assistant Manager
