Wonderful staff member Tristen? My partner & I had unfortunate experience at another hotel & quickly booked in with Kings on Peace for the following night. Early the next morning I ring and tell Tristen about what happened & she immediately offered for us to drop our luggage off to her then (as our room was not ready yet) & carry on with our day. Adding to this, this lovely woman let us check in early before the appointed check-in time. We really felt she went above & beyond to make us feel welcomed and cared for. A very beautiful and modern unit. Spacious bathroom, huge wet floor shower with amazing pressure. Added bonus was having a 2in1 washing machine/drier. All necessary kitchen appliances (including coffee pod maker) and utensils with a dishwasher drawer. Comfortable bed & bedding and wardrobe for storage and nice to have a big TV to watch instead of squinting 😂. The best surprise though was the two-man spa pool on our own private deck, definitely ended the night right! 110% recommending this to anyone travelling to rotorua.

All motels in Rotorua

Looking for a motel?

    The 4 apartments that we booked at Brylin Motel during winter school holiday are exceptional. I have not seen a very clean and home-like accommodation in Rotorua, none like Brylin Motel. The rooms and toilets are very spacious too. Amber is friendly and amazing. She has been very helpful and accommodating to my groups' needs. She has been very kind and understanding with the hectic activities and noises of having a big group like us. Thank you Brylin Motel!!! 100% highly recommended.

    The motel is located directly opposite a supermarket and mall and not too far from the town centre and some of the sights. Best of all, for $10 the person at reception washed and dried our clothes and left them in our room. Brilliant service. Room was great, what we needed and we cooked on our 1st night and prepared lunch for the following day. There is certainly plenty to do in the Rotorua area and BK’s motor lodge was ideal as a base.

    I simply needed a room for one night during my trip by car in New Zealand. The location was very good, very central, there was free parking on the premises. The room was what one would expect from a motel and very good value for the money.
