Across reviews, Hana Lodge impresses with a boutique feel, beautiful grounds, and a consistently high standard, delivering relaxing stays highlighted by tasteful design, cozy comfort, and an inviting atmosphere that makes many guests want to return.
Service is frequently described as attentive and genuinely friendly, with thoughtful touches and proactive help. Rooms range from comfortable to luxurious, and the landscaped estate offers pools, hot tubs, and a sauna; a couple of notes mention thinner doors or smaller rooms with limited views. Breakfast stands out and the restaurant is popular, though a few remarks cite an outdated wine list, temporary licensing kinks, or middling dinners. Expect a calm, upscale retreat a short drive from Rotorua, best for travellers who prioritize serenity over a central address.

The breakfast buffet was delightful with a pleasant array of options. The rooms were comfortable and cozy with a lavish feel. Dinner was extraordinary! The grounds were fun to walk through with little surprises throughout.

Property was very pretty, it felt like a manor. Staff were great too! I didn’t love the location too much as it was 17 minutes from the centre cbd area. There are stairs only so hauling suitcases was difficult and the pool isn’t heated yet. But! The food was great! 10/10 breakfast. Heated towel rails, comfortable bed, ample parking. Lots to explore and take pictures of on the property itself too. I enjoyed my stay.

Very quirky and fun place to stay. Reminded me of a British B&B. The grounds are beautiful and the staff are very friendly. The restaurant is good as well. Pool and hot tubs are an extra we didn’t get to use but they looked great and well maintained.

For a change the online pictures do not do a property justice. This fantastic and newly renovated lodge is set in acres of spectacular and interesting grounds. Everything has been done to a very high standard, including the service, rooms and on-site dining. Set 10 or so Kms from Rotarua it avoids the "smells". Our room was one of the smaller ones and lacked a good view, but nevertheless was well appointed and very comfortable (heated floors in the bathroom - wow!!) We enjoyed our stay immensely. Nothing at all to complain about here - would highly recommend Hana Lodge and wish them a successful future.

The staff, room and grounds were wonderful. The staff was kind, welcoming and communicated with us before arrival. We ate dinner and breakfast on property. Dinner was good, not great. Breakfast has continental and made to order options. Breakfast is a better value. The room was clean and spacious. Only downside is the room doors aren't thick. It's easy to hear voices and luggage as other guests on your floor pass by. Resort itself is incredibly quiet and tranquil. Location is about 10-15 minutes outside of Rotorua which is ideal. We wanted to stay away from the city. The property is unique with its art, birds, animals and bamboo. Bamboo forest makes for some good pictures. It's an older house with updated rooms. The atmosphere is like a bed & breakfast environment. Service staff were all super pleasant and aimed to please. We felt very welcome and would stay here again.

Incredible stay at Hana Lodge - very unique, but lux stay. The property is just gorgeous with whimsical sculptures everywhere. Just know that you are in that you are in the countryside (not far from town), so taxis, etc. are less available if you’re traveling alone as I was. Still very worth the small effort to get into town/more touristy activities. Supreme destination for a romantic getaways, family stay. Visiting the property is enough of vacation for those close enough. Huge thank you to Raj and team for going above and beyond to make sure my stay was comfortable, and special for my birthday. You’re all brilliant.

Our room was one of the smaller ones and lacked a good view, but nevertheless was well appointed and very comfortable (heated floors in the bathroom - wow!!) We enjoyed our stay immensely. Nothing at all to complain about here - would highly recommend Hana Lodge and wish them a successful future.
For a change the online pictures do not do a property justice. This fantastic and newly renovated lodge is set in acres of spectacular and interesting grounds. Everything has been done to a very high standard, including the service, rooms and on-site dining. Set 10 or so Kms from Rotarua it avoids the "smells". Our room was one of the smaller ones and lacked a good view, but nevertheless was well appointed and very comfortable (heated floors in the bathroom - wow!!) We enjoyed our stay immensely.

Dining
Breakfast draws strong praise and the on site restaurant is generally enjoyed. A few remarks mention dinner being just okay, an outdated wine list, or temporary liquor license issues.

The breakfast buffet was delightful with a pleasant array of options. The rooms were comfortable and cozy with a lavish feel. Dinner was extraordinary! The grounds were fun to walk through with little surprises throughout.

The staff, room and grounds were wonderful. The staff was kind, welcoming and communicated with us before arrival. We ate dinner and breakfast on property. Dinner was good, not great. Breakfast has continental and made to order options. Breakfast is a better value. The room was clean and spacious. Only downside is the room doors aren't thick. It's easy to hear voices and luggage as other guests on your floor pass by. Resort itself is incredibly quiet and tranquil. Location is about 10-15 minutes outside of Rotorua which is ideal. We wanted to stay away from the city. The property is unique with its art, birds, animals and bamboo. Bamboo forest makes for some good pictures. It's an older house with updated rooms. The atmosphere is like a bed & breakfast environment. Service staff were all super pleasant and aimed to please. We felt very welcome and would stay here again.

We really enjoyed our experience at the Hana. The amenities were great, the staff were fantastic and the breakfast experience was truly amazing. However, since they are a new hotel, they were still ironing out the kinks with things like their liquor license. Once they get those items in order, it should be a first class experience all around.

Great B&B off the main drag. It’s secluded, but safe. We stayed in a beautiful room next to the pool area. Michelle is the BEST. She is personable, friendly and provided great suggestions. Dinner was delicious (esp the lamb rack).
