The units at the bed and breakfast come with a seating area, a flat-screen TV with streaming services and a private bathroom with bathrobes and a shower. A patio with outdoor furniture and mountain views is offered in all units. At the bed and breakfast, the units come with bed linen and towels.

Parkside Boutique Lodge also provides a saltwater pool and a sauna for guests to relax in.

This B&B was immaculate and very tastefully decorated. It is in a quiet neighborhood, less than 15 minutes away from downtown Rotorua. Vivienne, the owner, was very attentive and friendly. Breakfast each morning consisted of granola, yogurt, fresh fruit, toast - and Viv's own freshly made avocado toast. Each of the 3 rooms has its own little patio and guests have use of a communal sitting room, dining room, small kitchen, and a patio. There is even a swimming pool and workout room. I would come back here in a heartbeat! I highly recommend this B&B.

The nicest, most well equipped place I have EVER stayed. The hosts obviously understand how to host. Everthing was there, we didn't need to ask for a thing. The house was perfect in every way and felt warm and inviting. A true home away from home. The pool was amazing. The kids slept very well. Everything was secure. We even loved having a herb garden. We added some basil, hopefully it survives for next time we come down. The kitchen is beautiful and functional. We loved the books explaining the history and host's efforts and struggles. Just perfect!

Looking for a hotel with pools?

‘Does it have a pool?’ is arguably one of the most common questions when booking a stay in any location. These hotels offer a great way to keep active during your holiday without having to hit the gym. Indoor pools allow you to practice your backstroke come rain or shine, whereas outdoor options allow you to relax on a sun lounger after swimming a few lengths.

    The room was clean and tidy and had been updated with a tiled shower and glass shower door, plus a new vanity. The shower pressure was excellent, plus it was a shower head with hose (which we prefer), not a fixed shower head. It was roomy for a studio. and there were all the facilities that we needed. There was a heated outdoor swimming pool plus an indoor and outdoor spa pool. We did not try the restaurant but heard great things about it from friends who live locally. We would definitely stay here again and try the restaurant next time.
