Parkside Boutique Lodge

Jen was such a lovely host, making sure we felt at home and sharing great recommendations. Breakfast was delicious and clearly made with care. The BnB was bright, clean, beautiful and spacious, with thoughtful personal touches, and the location was quiet and peaceful. Best BnB in NZ! I’d highly recommend it for an amazing BnB stay :)

Jenny was a delightful host, and breakfast each morning was fresh and generously portioned. I had a great few days in Rotorua. The neighbourhood was quiet, while still being close to many of the main attractions.

Jenny made breakfast feel personal, adjusting the homemade food to suit us each morning, and she was so kind. We stayed for a few days at the start of our New Zealand trip. The setting is scenic, with nature and activities nearby, while the hot springs are far enough away that the stronger smells weren’t an issue. It was a perfect introduction to the country. I can’t recommend it enough.

Breakfast was a real treat, with fresh fruit salad, toast, jam, cold cuts, eggs, cheese and muesli. The pool was in good shape on both visits, and the spacious lounge worked well for breakfast or relaxing any time of day. We came to this lodge twice on our four-month trip around New Zealand and were very happy each time. It’s in a quiet residential area, and the rooms are lovely, tastefully furnished and very clean. We’d gladly return and highly recommend it.
