We had a long trip and just wanted to freshen up and get some rest. The shower gel and hand soap in my room was empty. Left to go to dinner then had issues with the swipe card so couldn't get back into my room, my room was on the other side of the building so had to go down & up more flights of stairs to go back down to reception but had to wait there for 30mins while others were getting checked in. Not my best stay at Haka House but other than that my room was clean and cosy. ##### Karen Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 5 Jul 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great apart from the cleaning The bed was comfy, great privacy with the curtains and sturdy built beds. Cozy warm room, lots of showers etc. large kitchen, dining area, TV sofa section. Negatives: I was there for 4 days and they did not clean the room once, mugs left from previous people and a dirty carpet that needed a vacuum, not good. Some of the staff were approachable and friendly, others really weren't and just took over the shared spaces at night, mainly talking over the films in the TV area, so odd when there's other places to sit. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### YINGHUA 17 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It's quiet and the people so friendly. ##### YINGHUA Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Jones 20 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A dining room shared with friends coming from world that is absolutely perfect. ##### Jones Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew 3 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Haka House Rotorua review Nice place, very clean, good atmosphere and great location. ##### Andrew Stayed 6 nights in Feb 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jonathan 12 Apr 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Drunk kids up till almost 5am. ##### Jonathan Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tetiana 9 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Quick check in. The bed was great, not soft like in 90% of hotels, so I did not have a back pain. The room was very clean. The bathroom was reasonably clean. Quuet hours are 10pm-7 am, however one neighbor wad talking over the phone and laughing loudly at night for about an hour so i could not sleep. In my humble opinion such guests must be fined. ##### Tetiana Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Melissa 19 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great value for money.

There is no car park but there is free parking nearby ##### Susan Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Gwendoline 2 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Haka House was my First Choice for staying in Rotorua as is it conveniently located close to the town centre. Parking is free at the park close by or in front of the house except from 9-5 Mo-Fr 9-1(?) Asa, Sunday free Shame that some of the residents are not too tidy and seem to be unable to differentiate between the various garbage bins! The kitchen is well equipped and there is enough space for storing food. The boiling water reservoirs are great! ##### Gwendoline Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Charlotte 25 Apr 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness Had a private ensuite room (Room 80) which you expect a bit better experience than a dorm but might aswell have been. The door to the room was immediately next to the kitchen’s fridge door so was awoken by people making breakfast at 5am. There was also a cockroach in the bathroom we had to get rid of which was awful. Had very limited interaction with staff due to the app check-in etc. Would not stay again ##### Charlotte Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Takashi 2 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This hostel's reception closes around 5 p.m., but I didn't notice the email explaining how to check in after hours, which made things quite difficult. Fortunately, someone happened to be at reception and helped me, so I was able to check in without any issues. Still, it made me feel like in this digital age, people without electronic devices might have a hard time staying here. HAKA was quite large in scale, with a spacious kitchen, dining area, and lounge located in a separate building. The rooms, toilets, and showers were well-equipped and clean. I stayed for two nights. Rotorua has wonderful hot springs, so I visited one on my second day. It’s a lovely town and the hostel was a pleasant place to stay. ##### Takashi Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Océanne 17 Mar 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness The shower was extremely dirty. Gross. It was also very noisy there’s was a big group who opened and closed the door over and over again until very late in the night. Very loud and we could hear people talking between room. ##### Océanne Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Marissa 22 Jun 2025 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Disliked: Amenities Staff were really satff on check in. Location was excellent. Unfortunately we didn't enjoy other things about our stay. Our family booked 3 twin bed rooms. None of the rooms had hot water in the showers. It was luke warm at best. The upstairs rooms were noisy with paper thin walls and people slamming doors all through the night. The ground floor apartment was opposite the dining hall. The door was slamming everytime some went through it, thw floor heating caused the room to be so hot we sweates all night under a sheet and had to open the sliding door as it got too hot to handle. The ensuit bathroom smelt like stale urine and the body wash in the shower was empty. I hate to complain but this was the most expensive place we've stayed, but by far the most problematic. We wanted to love it, but won't ne back. ##### Marissa Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Abram 31 Aug 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Needs deep cleaning The bathroom had an incredible amount of black mould on the bathroom ceiling which is unacceptable. Room 2 ##### Abram Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mai 6 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The room was clean and well-cleaned, so I was able to stay comfortably! It was also convenient to be able to charge my phone in bed! However, my room was on the first floor, so the noise of people going up and down the stairs and the voices of people checking out early in the morning made it difficult to sleep, which was unfortunate. Other than that it was really great！ ##### Mai Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Katlin 5 Jan 2024 Disliked: Staff & service Good value for money, bunk beds made private since they have thick curtains. Place was being remodeled so common areas were usable but smelled of paint fumes. Front staff / customer service was quite disappointing - for a hostel, they werent friendly or approachable at all. ##### Katlin Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Rashmi 4 Apr 2024 Disliked: Amenities The accomodation was too noicy. We were on a King suite by the stairs. People are running up and down the stairs and the corridor. Rooms are not sound proof at all. I don’t recommend this place for anybody who’s looking forward to sleepin on a vacation. ##### Rashmi ### 6/10 Okay #### Sergio Castro 22 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Amenities It was comfortable and clean. But it was lacking. No fan or AC in the room and there was no soap to bathe. The check in process was fine, but really no soap was surprising. Also the staff could be friendlier. ##### Sergio Castro Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [B&B Surbiton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Surbiton-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d6047720-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [ALEGRIA Palacio Mojacar - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mojacar-Hotels-ALEGRIA-Palacio-Mojacar-Adults-Only.h12010323.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Maldives Maafushivaru Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maafushivaru-Hotels-Lti-Maafushivaru-Maldives.h5248538.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Taormina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Hotels.d4915.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Radisson Blu Plaza Bangkok](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bangkok-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Plaza-Bangkok.h7650872.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Hotels in Hivernage](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hivernage-Marrakech-Hotels-Luxury-Hotel.0-n6130065-0-tLuxuryHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Château de Marçay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marcay-Hotels-Chateau-De-Marcay.h565779.Hotel-Information) > > [Bel & The Dragon Churt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Farnham-Hotels-Bel-The-Dragon-Churt.h6837772.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Servigroup La Zenia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Orihuela-Hotels-Hotel-Servigroup-La-Zenia.h919948.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B For 2 - Wellness For 2](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bruges-Hotels-BB-For-2-Wellness-For-2.h22703883.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Hotel Marina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Hotel-Marina.h2983165.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Hot Tubs in Bicester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bicester-Hotels-Hotels-With-Hot-Tubs.0-0-d179915-tHotelsWithHotTubs.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [5 Star Hotels in Solva](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Solva-Hotels.s50-0-d3000009847.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Strathburn Hotel Inverurie by Compass Hospitality](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Inverurie-Hotels-Strathburn-Hotel-Inverurie-By-Compass-Hospitality.h12578746.Hotel-Information) > > ['The Shed', A luxury lodge with a view, Sandhills Holiday Park Mudeford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Christchurch-Hotels-The-Shed.h44473118.Hotel-Information) > > [Spa Hotels in Richmond](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Richmond-Hotels-Spa-Hotels.0-0-d5666-tSpaHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Marianna Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santorini-Hotels-MARIANNA-HOTEL.h54521486.Hotel-Information) > > [Molitor Hotel & Spa Paris - MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paris-Hotels-Hotel-Molitor-Paris-MGallery.h8013591.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues Geneva](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Geneva-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Des-Bergues-Geneva.h4773.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Hotel Massena Nice](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nice-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Hotel-Massena-Nice.h441498.Hotel-Information) > > [Gay-Friendly Hotels in Costa del Sol](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Costa-Del-Sol-Hotels-Gay-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d11102-tGayFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Nash Suites Airport Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Geneva-Hotels-Nash-Suites-Airport-Hotel.h33317700.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Gatwick (LGW) to Burgas (BOJ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lgw/boj/london-to-bourgas) > > [Flights from Paisley (GLA) to Montreal (YUL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gla/yul/glasgow-to-montreal) ### Cars > [Car hire in Lefkada Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Lefkada-Town.d6062868.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Packages > [Cornwall Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cornwall.d6046193.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Marbella Golf and Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marbella-Golf-And-Country-Club-Marbella.d6259292.Attraction) ### General > [Visit Maulds Meaburn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maulds-Meaburn.dx3000010555) > > [Visit Benodet](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Benodet.dx500433)
