B&B@The Redwoods

Seeking a bed for the night in a busy Rotorua, we happened on The Redwoods which was in walking distance of the forest. The hostess, Vivien, couldn’t have been more accommodating and even rearranged bedrooms so we could stay two nights. The rooms were clean, tidy and comfortable and a lovely breakfast was served in the mornings. Vivien also guided us on local tourist attractions and happily booked some up for us. Highly recommended.

B&B @ The Redwoods was wonderful! A true "B and B" with a knowledgeable, engaging host (Vivien) and a lovely breakfast. Our room had a small deck and sitting area-- lots of birdsong! The location was great, and Vivien had lots of good recommendations regarding dining and activities. Highly recommend!

An excellent B&B only a few minutes walk from the beautiful redwood forest. Viv is an absolutely fantastic host. She is so friendly and great fun. She welcomes you into her home with open arms, points out great places to visit and things to do and will book activities for you with a 10% discount. Our room was large with loads of storage, iron, hairdryer etc. The bathroom was good with plentiful toiletries, towels and robes. There is a comfortable guest lounge where you can help yourself to hot drinks, biscuits and fruit anytime. Breakfast is simple with toast and jams, fruit, eggs, cereals and is taken with guests from the other two rooms with Viv making sure everyone is happy and well fed. You can park on Viv’s drive and everything you would want to see and do in and around Rotorua is no more than a 5 minute drive away. We loved staying here and would recommend to any couple visiting Rotorua.

This is just a wonderful place because Vivien is the most wonderful host. Help, fun, lovely and kind. Great breakfast. Right next to Redwood Forest Treetop walking, which Vivien help us with. Tickets and fast track! Just out of this world beautiful Stay here

Fantastic little gem in a great location. We arrived early for our stay- which wasn't an issue. The owner was on hand to offer lots of places to go and see. She provided maps and leaflets of all of the local places to go and see and booked on our behalf. Room very clean and comfortable, use of communal living room area and great breakfast provided.

We were so welcomed during our stay at B&B@The Redwoods! Vivien was a very attentive and truly charming host, and was always willing to share her extensive knowledge of the area. The accommodations were lovely; felt like a home-away-from-home! The room was scrupulously clean, with many thoughtful touches such as a heated towel bar and robes. We enjoyed the plentiful breakfast of fruit with yogurt, eggs, cereal, toast, and homemade jam! The location is perfect - the proximity to the Redwood Forest made for an easy and enjoyable walk through these beautiful trees. Scion Research Center has a fascinating exhibit for anyone interested in the NZ forest industry. We highly recommend this B&B for anyone staying in the Rotorua area. Thank you again Viv for everything, and we'll see you next time!
