Nestled in the heart of New Zealand’s North Island, Rotorua beckons with its mesmerising blend of rich Māori culture, geothermal wonders, and stunning natural landscapes. Famous for its bubbling mud pools and towering geysers, this vibrant city sits on the shores of Lake Rotorua, offering visitors a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in a world where ancient traditions meet breathtaking beauty. 

From the enchanting sounds of the Pohutu Geyser erupting in Te Puia’s Whakarewarewa Valley, to the scenic trails of Whakarewarewa Forest, and the warm embrace of therapeutic hot springs, every corner of Rotorua is steeped in an allure that captivates the senses – and perched elegantly on the shores of Lake Rotorua, the Black Swan Lakeside Boutique Hotel is a hidden gem where you can stay to enjoy it all perfectly. 

Here, at this gorgeous property surrounded by an acre of manicured Victorian gardens, tranquility, indulgence and nature converge to offer a boutique haven where you can relax with style.

Unwind in one of its nine exquisitely designed guest rooms – each offering stunning lake views and cosy gas fireplaces – and imagine sipping your morning coffee on a private terrace before diving into the inviting swimming pool, or exploring the secret grotto with dual spa pools. 

Later, as the sun sets over the lake, savour a gourmet meal at the fine-dining restaurant, all while soaking in the panoramic beauty of the tranquil waters. It’s an experience that will resonate long after you leave. 

At the Black Swan, every detail has been meticulously crafted to ensure your stay is nothing short of magical – and with a wealth of nearby attractions to discover, such as the Skyline Rotorua and the exciting Canopy Tours – this destination is one that offers the perfect blend of relaxation, culture, and luxury.
