Delightfully old school and quaint right next to the beautiful garden. Nice to see a hotel with some character and not another cookie-cutter modern trash. I would totally recommend to anyone, and it's walking distance to welcome center as well as restaurants.

We really appreciated the historic value of this property. The story of the hotel is fascinating! The location was also central with easy walking access to cafes, restaurants, and the lakefront. The hotel staff were kind. We used Prince’s Gate as our launching point in Rotorua for three days to experience the volcanic areas of NZ. This included a sea plane flight with Volcanic Air, a visit to the free foot baths nearby the hotel, a drive to see Mt Doom in Tongariru National Park, and walks through wai o taupo and waimangu. The Prince’s Gate served as a good centralized location. We also appreciates the free parking right around the corner from the hotel.
