4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2013

My family of 2 adults and 3 children appreciated what greeted us when walking into and through our unit. The girls thoroughly enjoyed the unit's mineral pool, and the boy loved the free wi-fi, and couch and beds in front of the tv. Mum and Dad enjoyed direct access to outside deck and mineral pool from their bedroom. It was... More

Back in the seventies and eighties (and probably earlier but I wouldn't know) there were many motels on Fenton Street with their own mineral hot water bores, such that these places were heated for next to nothing via radiators and each room either had it's own natural mineral pool or one enormous one for all to enjoy. These have all... More

Very quiet situation and close to CBD and main attractions. Units have good sized lounge/dining, separate kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and toilet. Private mineral pool and courtyard completes the picture. This motel is also pet friendly. Owner is very helpful and obliging.

This is a small complex and has units with private pools with genuine thermal water off in a lovely courtyard off the bedroom. The owner is very helpful and the whole place is beautifully cared for. As it is just off the main drag it is lovely and quiet. This motel has everything that one would want ans is spotlessly... More

The room was quite spacious but very badly lit and dated although the bedding was fresh and clean and kitchen was spotless and quite well equipped there were a lot of cobwebs. The mineral pool was very private and good value.

3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2008

We stayed at the Gibson Court Motel in Rotorua for 1 night. The room was very spacious, with it's own kitchen and small fridge. The room was clean, but very dated. A nice thing is that it is very central to some of the attractions, especially the Mitai Maori Cultural Experience/Rainbow Springs Nature Park, a must see! If you make... More

4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 June 2007

The main selling point of this small motel (about ten units) is the thermal pool attached to several of the rooms - the pool seats two adults comfortably and is situated on a very private garden deck leading off the bedroom. You fill the pool yourself with genuine thermal mineral water and so can control the depth and temperature. If... More
