Check-in was very slow. We arrived 10 minutes before our scheduled check in time of 2:00 pm and had to wait an additional hour before our room was ready. There was a long line at reception until at least 6:00. Parking and laundry facilities were free and the location was good (close to lake)

Solid 1 star hotel.
Ibis Rotorua was terrible. Rooms were not ready until 2.5 hours after checkin time. Room was dirty and had very stained carpet. Broken chair in room. Could not enter building from downstairs carpark after 7pm as card reader was not working, had to walk up to street level and enter through front door. I would not recommend staying here.

Arrived half an hour before check in , our room wasn’t ready so we asked for recommendations on what to do. The gentleman on the desk was really helpful and gave us 2 great recommendations. We arrived back at the hotel at 4:00pm to a large queue waiting to check in. Our room wasn’t ready , so we waited about 15 mins and were given our keys. They didn’t work so went back to reception and had to queue again . It was apparent that nobody’s keys were working and every time you left your room you had to then re queue for someone to come and let you back in. The issue was only resolved when we came back from our evening meal. We understand this was a computer issue but felt it could have been handled better and doesn’t explain why our room wasn’t ready at 4:00pm when check in was 2:00pm. On checking out , nothing was said and no apology given.

We went to check in, they said they have to clean the room and come later. Do they take money late or give discount - they didn’t . Dirty room , carpet stained and the bed and towels dirty smell. Totally horrible experience in ibis. Never recommend this hotel to anyone. Please do not waste your money going fo this hotel.
