Haka House Rotorua

Location was perfect with the park across the street and lots of shops and restaurants around the corner. Big fully stocked communal kitchen was great with lots of seating! Easy check in. Comfortable beds! The ensuite bathroom was not very clean and had a smell of wet mildew. And we pre-paid for parking but they didn’t have enough spots so had to park across the street. Otherwise good!

The hostel is located right in the centre of Rotorua and generally a place to recommend. Every Room has lots of space for (smaller) luggage and a locker per person. The kitchen and community room is really big. Although there are some corners of the hostel that are quite messy and the mattress is not too comfy. Surroundings can get very loud so bring your earplugs😅 No ACs available in the rooms. Still for a solo traveller absolutely a safe place to stay

Good location. Park at street nearby for free parking overnight. no lift, so if located at higher levels, will need to carry luggage up. no toothbrush and toothpaste, no hairdryer. warm water shower provided. shared kitchen is quite huge with a lot of cooking appliance to share.

Great stay. Clean compact rooms. Friendly staff. Nice communal kitchen and lounge. Only downside - walls are very thin and it can be noisy. No facility to store your luggage.

The rooms were very small, its hard to open your suitcase in the room without disturbing other people’s bed. My complex only had 1 working shower, and to store your luggage after check out is $4 The location is convenient and the dining area was nice and tidy.

Very average experience. When arriving the receptionist told me there was no dorm bed available for the upcoming night, while online plenty of beds seemed to be available.... After I told her she suddenly changed mind and was forced to book online for the cheapest rate. Clearly the staff didnt seem to like their job and service is far below what to expect. At least the beds were good.

Comfy bed and modern furnishings. Large common space, but you had to go outside to reach it from the rooms (not great mid winter in pouring rain!). Reception staff were friendly and helpful with tips for visiting things around town.

The beds were comfortable but the rooms were tiny with no soundproofing, so you got woken up every time someone walked past or down the stairs. The staff were lovely and it was in a good spot but it’s not a great place to stay if you’ve got a large suitcase with you
