Rooms were well-equipped and comfortable, and staff was super friendly and helpful. The mineral bath was a bit dated, but they’re planning on some renovation, and in spite of its age, the mineral bath was clean and comfortable. Appreciated their commitment to conservation, sustainability and local sourcing, all done without sounding preachy. Really a very fun visit. Would definitely stay there again. ##### Julia T. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth 2 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice property for the price. We stayed 2 nights. Wished we had more time to stay longer. The mineral pool was a wonderful way to end the day. Close to food and shopping. Really enjoyed our time. The staff went above and beyond with suggestions and info about the area. Will definitely return when back in the area. ##### Elizabeth Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Randall 17 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities We just returned home (Arizona) from a fantastic 6 week journey visiting Australia and NZ. The Aura accommodations were fine..great location and the spa was a treat at night. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The one constructive comment would be for the room to be updated for today’s expectations or needs, ie, USB ports, fresh paint, new carpet, etc. ##### Randall Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Dave 16 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good motel style accommodation with hot outdoor swimming pool. Close to a variety of eating places. Lots of attention to environmental issues and support for local charities. Shame the outside metal stairs are noisy, especially at night, but this is an issue not unique to this property. ##### Dave Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Debbie 28 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Perfectly fine Though it clearly is a bit run down, especially in the geothermal rooms, and some of the space is tight, we enjoyed the enthusiasm of the welcome, the convenience of the location, and the outdoor pool. We were very happy that they were so invested in recycling! ##### Debbie Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 22 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Friendly place Great stay. I arrived late and the key was in a noticeable place. Great property with the friendliest people - both in front office and housekeeping. I stayed in two different rooms. Unfortunately, I found random black hairs in both of them when I first arrived. Wifi is fantastic - and that was crucial for my stay, as an entrepreneur. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Coco 23 Feb 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Location is great, couple minutes walk to lake and EAT street, tho food there is excellent. We booked the family room, the only one left, room is spacious, has 4 beds. But the bathroom is tiny. Family room provides full kitchen, including microwave and ovens. $8 for self laundry. Front office has free laundry detergent. ##### Coco Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Adam 10 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service We enjoyed our stay but it was a typical motel. What was good was the location, and the separate bedroom for the kids. We didn’t use the pool or hot tubs. No issues with the service or facilities. However, it’s not a new place and there was a broken blind which let the sun in early in the morning. It’s also in Rotorua so you do get the smell… sthg we didn’t think of when we booked in the area. It was mostly ok but sometimes quite overpowering. Still, a good base for looking around the area. ##### Adam Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### EMILY 28 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Aura is clearly a well-loved and cared-for property. I liked the idea of staying someplace that wasn't a big property but would be safe and clean. The staff was so kind and welcoming. The property itself was quiet and is very near the water, so it's a block or two outside of Rotorua noise and traffic. It was easy to walk to grocery stores and such. Parking - dedicated spot for each room so easy. The pool area is a bit smaller than the photo shows but still looked nice. We were in Room 10, which has its own little patio area and hot tub - the hot tub was in great condition and very clean, as was the rest of the room and amenities. We cooked dinner a couple nights and the little kitchen was well-stocked; they provided dish detergent as well. We did laundry ($4 for each washer or dryer load) and the machines worked well. We'd recommend Aura and would stay here again. ##### EMILY Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Monique 30 Mar 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Aura is a beautiful place and I felt genuinely welcomed on arrival. The rooms are lovely, with comfortable beds and handy cooking facilities. Laundry is available on site for just $4 a load, and there’s a great bike wash area too. The amazing mineral pools and outdoor pool are real highlights, along with a BBQ and compost bin. It’s clear they really value the environment, which I loved. I originally booked 2 nights but was so impressed I added another night! Highly recommended – a relaxing and eco-friendly stay. ##### Monique Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2026 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Hotels in Winchester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Winchester-Hotels.d5477.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Luxury Hotels in Hanoi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hanoi-Hotels-Luxury-Hotel.0-0-d1428-tLuxuryHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [5 Star Hotels in Santorini](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Santorini-Hotels.s50-0-d177970.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Tasman Holiday Parks - Papamoa Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tauranga-Hotels-Papamoa-Beach-Resort.h9629513.Hotel-Information) > - [Berry Blue Hotels - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manavgat-Hotels-Berry-Blue-Hotels.h109705555.Hotel-Information) > - [Rydges Rotorua](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rotorua-Hotels-Rydges-Rotorua.h329597.Hotel-Information) > - [Pantheon Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kos-Hotels-Pantheon-Apartments.h17521378.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Makkah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Makkah-Hotels.d178043.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [MONday Apart NIHOMBASHI NINGYOCHO](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-MONday-Apart-Nihonbashi-Suitengumae.h46383724.Hotel-Information) > - [Island View Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Opotiki-Hotels-Island-View-Holiday-Park.h9624950.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels near Malbork Castle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malbork-Castle-Hotels.0-l6114864-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [On The Point - Lake Rotorua](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rotorua-Hotels-Peppers-On-The-Point-Lake-Rotorua.h1207535.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > - [Flights from Liverpool (LPL) to Seawell (BGI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lpl/bgi/liverpool-to-bridgetown) > - [Flights from Bristol (BRS) to Hyères (TLN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/brs/tln/bristol-to-toulon) > - [Flights from Gatwick (LGW) to Maasai Mara (MRE)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lgw/mre/london-to-maasai-mara) > - [Flights from Dallas (DFW) to Edinburgh (EDI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/dfw/edi/dallas-to-edinburgh) > - [Flights from Timi (PFO) to Newcastle-upon-Tyne (NCL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/pfo/ncl/paphos-to-newcastle) > - [Flights from Hounslow (LHR) to Bujumbura (BJM)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/bjm/london-to-bujumbura) ### Packages > - [Ooty Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ooty.d6234125.Holidays-City-Breaks) > - [Sao Paulo Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sao-Paulo.d180023.Holidays-City-Breaks) > - [Nosal Ski Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nosal-Ski-Center-Zakopane.d553248621563231971.Attraction) ### General > - [Visit Ballymoney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ballymoney.dx6126735) > - [Visit Erith](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Erith.dx6295770) > - [Visit La Font d'en Carros](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Font-Den-Carros.dx6130839) ---
