My wife and I recently stayed at Regal Palms Resort in Rotorua. While the resort shows its age, we found our room to be spacious, well-equipped, and comfortable—a perfect retreat after a day of exploring. One of the highlights was the small private courtyard complete with a table and chairs, offering a delightful spot to enjoy a quiet morning or evening. It was a pity that the on-site restaurant wasn’t operational during our visit, but this wasn’t a major issue since most guests, including ourselves, prefer dining in town where there are plenty of great options. The pool, though modest in size and located in the middle of the car park, was clean and perfectly usable for a refreshing dip. We didn’t have a chance to use the tennis court, but it appeared to be well-maintained. Overall, Regal Palms is a solid choice for anyone looking for a comfortable room or suite just outside the town centre, offering a relaxed environment and good value for money.

Our room had a leak somewhere so the rain soaked about 1/3 of the carpet. There were a few minor cleanliness issues, but the front desk was great and breakfast was really nice. Property felt a little dated, room was small.
