Rotorua Hideaway Lodge is a great place to stay for families. On the main road but you wouldn't know. Excellent private playground for the children which is challenging for all ages. Nice interactive options with the animals. Nice friendly welcome with warm muffins for all.

Our group of 18pax stayed here for 1 night at Rotorua. Quiet location on the main road, with a small farm for visitors to enjoy. Rooms are clean and cosy. Whole place has a homely feel, with various art sculptures livening up the area.

Rotorua Hideaway Lodge is a great place to stay with kids! We had a one bedroom motel unit which was plenty big enough for the 4 of us. We slept in the queen size bed in the bedroom, while our children slept in the lounge. We had a bit of a juggle at bedtime where we wanted to sit up,... More

Very unique & creative with fun wooden statue sculptures made from decking timber scattered throughout the grounds. The bath tub table & chairs, a boat & tunnels in the playground, along with a...

Good location just off the main road into town, so all local attractions are easy to get to. The rooms are basic but comfortable and have everything you need. The farm makes it an interesting stay and would be great for kids!

The units were modern and clean, I used the car BBQ outside which was great and the kids enjoyed the park and the animals.
