Great stay
Our stay was amazing. We went fishing in the Ngongotaha River and stay at the Rydges Hotel, which was not far away from where we wanted to fish.

Location was great
Location was excellent for our needs being close to the Māori village and redwood forest. There is a strong sulphur smell though throughout the hotel.
Plenty of parking.

Great view
Great views overlooking the hot springs. Very nice room. Hotel in general is a little old and worn but nicer on the inside than on the outside. Good breakfast but the dinner buffet was not worth the money.

The room was clean and quite spacious. The beds were very comfortable, including the pillows. I can't comment on the TV as I didn't use that but the free Wi-Fi seemed to work well. The pool was a very pleasant temp
