Featuring free WiFi, Kiwi As Guest House offers accommodation in Rotorua, 200 m from Tamaki Maori Village Centre.

Rotorua Museum is 400 m from Kiwi As Guest House, while Polynesian Spa is 300 m from the property. The Rotorua i-site and coach station is 700 m away.

What I like about the place it is within the city so I didn't have to use my car, I also like the free carpark right outside the Guest house. I can't complain because I have a bed to sleep on there's a shower and toilet and laundry. So as long those needs are available I am happy.

    Well equipped, quiet and charmingly decorated flat in walking distance of city center and main attractions. Although the access was with key code which often makes accommodation rather impersonal , the friendly owners kept regular contact to ensure everything was to our satisfaction. The jacuzzi was a plus. Would certainly stay there again.
