About the Distinction Hotel

Imagine waking up with the most enchanting forest on your doorstep. Well, that is exactly what will happen when you stay at The Distinction Rotorua Hotel. Adjacent to the hotel is the Whakarewarewa Forest which is home some of the most stunning walks you can imagine and some world-class mountain biking trails. If mountain biking in the forest during your stay sounds like something you’d like to do, the hotel offers bike hire, so you can get in a leisurely ride, or pedal the paths for a scenic workout.

Or maybe golf is your thing? In which case you’ll be pleased to know that Rotorua’s best golf course is also just across the road, along with a heated outdoor swimming pool, perfect for relaxing after a few rounds on the green.

Alternatively, if you’d prefer to simply relax at the hotel, its gardens are also just as beautiful as the forest and incredibly peaceful. You really couldn’t ask for better surroundings.

If you’d like to explore the local town during your stay, The Distinction Rotorua Hotel is just a few minutes’ drive from the centre of Rotorua. So as you can see, there’s plenty to do.
