Some samples of what our guests are kindly saying about their stay at MALFROY motor lodge
a selection from Trip Advisor and booking.com
“Perfect for three” - I searched many accommodations in Rotorua NZ to find economical lodging for three ladies (i.e. 3beds) and selected the Malfroy Lodge. Correspondance prior to arrival by email gave me the confidence needed to wait booking trips until our host talked to us. Sure enough he recommended Uncle Tim from Taylor's tours and we received the kind of personal touring in two days we wanted. All utensils, pans, and appliances were in kitchen, gardens were beautiful and lodge convenient to attractions in town."

“Perfect stay - We stayed 2 nights in the largest unit. We had a great time and Ron the manager was a brilliant host. Our 10 yr old son had a great time doing "treasure hunt" around the grounds of the motor inn. The thermal pool was great."

“Great place to stay” - Second time we have stayed at the Malfroy. Very clean and tidy and obliging hosts booked dinner for us at a local restaurant. Really enjoy the mineral pool and always make the most of it while we are there. Will definitely return if we are ever back in Rotorua."

“Friendly ,great value accommodation” - My wife and stayed at Malfroy Motor 2 nights during the last week of Sept. Upon arrival we were greeted by the owner Ron who took time to get to know us and figure out what we wanted to see and do during our time in Rotorua. His recommendations for Dining and Entertainment were just what we were looking for. We found our room to be clean and well appointed. I had suffered a Shoulder injury a week earlier and found the mineral and plunge pools that were 20 steps from our backdoor to be just what I needed. The grounds were clean and neat."

“It is a gift for my family trip” - I went to Malfroy Motor between 29 Sep to 2 Oct and lived in house 8. Then I found my choice is how correct! As my parents came from China that day, so we arrive late with tired mind. But we were so surprised by the warm room and suitable light obviously someone prepared for that. And room is very clean, including table, beds, and toilets."

“Proof that the personal touch makes all the difference! - We chose this hotel because of the TripAdvisor reviews and were really glad we did. While the accommodation is not as large or grandiose as some 5 star hotels we stayed at in other cities, the friendliness and advice of the hands-on owners added such a welcome perspective to our stay that this became one of the nicest experiences of our trip through New Zealand."

“Great hospitality - had bought my mother across to NZ for some relaxing therapeutic treatments in the thermal pools of Rotorua. I managed to find this accommodation online (The Malfroy motor lodge) that advertised the 'on premises mineral pools'. Little did I know what a gem i had found.

“Wonderful stay” - We stayed here for four nights in late June and had a great experience. The rooms are perfectly clean and comfortable. We had some ideas of what we wanted to do in Rotorua but nothing really planned so everyday we stopped by the office for some advice from Ron and Mairi. Their advice was extremely helpful and they were lovely to chat to."
