No carpark

Kyu Families - 19/01/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

Booked city view room online. Checked in and got room 118 which has no view at all. All we could see was side of adjacent building real close. Asked to change the room which was done to 3rd floor. Room was clean and room service was good. Climate control works great. No carpark, no swimming pool, no sauna or spa is real negative of this hotel. Carpark they charge $45 per night so real price of stay is room charge +$45

Not very welcoming, overall low standard for a 5 star. Not cleaned to a high standard. Open milk in the fridge when arrived, missing amenities, no information. Was a touch disappointed…

Not up to a 5 star standard

Customer review rating 3.5/5

Ejl Couples - 18/01/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

I arrived and was told I couldn’t check in but once I said I was platinum status she looked to see that my room was ready, not a good start even if I wasn’t platinum status they should of checked to see if the room was ready and let the guest in. The executive lounge is shut I blame “covid cuts” since every other executive lounge at Accor nz hotels are open. Check out my booking said it was pre paid even showed the booking confirmation to the staff but I had to pay since there system said I hadn’t so need to fix any type of communication error from Accor to Pullman. Staff are not up to a 5 star standard if comparing to sofitel most don’t know what they are doing. I wouldn’t recommend staying here unless things change I will stay at the Novotel which has free on-site parking not $45, closer to the lake, room amenities are not much less and the bathroom actually has privacy unlike here and the restaurant is not a rip off nearly $60 for a steak and that’s just it no vegetables etc

Hiria Couples - 17/01/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

Check in was good, however, it was lucky that I heard the other reception staff explain the key when in elevator (in defence for our reception staff, she was in training). The room was nice and tidy other than food left in the fridge from other customers. Phoned reception and they were up in a flash to get rid of it. The gym equipment/ gym was awesome. Just had trouble connecting to Wi-Fi and TV even after following instructions. The bar staff were lovely and accomadating. Very friendly!! Breakfast was cold by the time we got to restaurant. Both chefs and restaurant staff were very friendly and were there if we needed assistants. Checkout was awesome. Carl broke things down for me when it came to payment. All in all a good stay. Thank you!

As Platinum members we tried Pullman for the first time. Very impressed. Disappointed that we didn’t have free parking for a completely electric vehicle like Sofitel and Novotel? But we charged overnight at Pullman. $45 per night is very excessive .

MGA1600 Business - 19/08/2021 TripAdvisor review

This Pullman has a high standard of service, well appointed rooms and extremely well located (with excellent lake views from my room 509). The only disappointment was the lack of an executive lounge or cocktail service (which I enjoyed greatly on my previous visit)

Warm and cosy for a Winter stay. Felt very welcome as a returning guest. Lovely lake view room where we could enjoy stunning sunrise over Lake Rotorua. Great breakfast served with smiles. Thank you Pullman team.
