We loved our stay at City Lights. David and Grace are great hosts and the property is lovely. Our room was beautifully presented with lots of nice extra touches. As well as the many activities in Rotorua, we enjoyed chilling out in the garden on the sofa and using the Hot Tub. It’s a short drive into town for dinner but we were so glad we stayed at City Lights.

Excellent boutique hotel in a great location just out of town. David and Grace are fabulous hosts, with great knowledge of local things to do. Great room overlooking Rotorua - although on the small side - was furnished to a very high standard. Highly recommended

We stayed in the cottage for 3 nights. We had a warm welcome, and we got lots of great advice. We fed the alpaca's and could wake up with them every morning. The cottage has a great view over the city. We had everything we needed and really enjoyed our time here. Thanks for the great stay.

Lovely Gem with "City Lights" and Alpacas. The beds were very comfortable and great decor that enamoured our five-year old. It was easy to fall in love with the alpacas. The hot tub and views of the city were tremendous. Accommodation everything we needed and more.

Very nice Lodge, amazing view of Rotorua from the back of your room. Grace and David are a lovely couple who take good care of you. They serve a good breakfast which keeps you going all day. The rooms are spacious and well kept. We definitely would recommend you to stay with Grace and David.
