Holiday Inn Rotorua will have a fresh look and feel following upgrades and refurbishments to key spaces.

The conference rooms – Cascades, Kauri, Totara and Te Puna Aroha – have been fitted with Panasonic High Definition (HD) projectors with integrated WiFi and audio systems, brand new black-out blinds and fresh paint.

A popular venue for hundreds of business events each year – from small meetings and extensive conferences to trade shows and exhibitions – Holiday Inn Rotorua already has a well-deserved reputation as the hotel of choice for the MICE market in the central North Island.

The properties’ showcase venue Pohutu Cultural Theatre is unique to Rotorua and is the perfect location for conferences, black tie gala events, weddings and cultural performances.

Business development director Julie Carcaterra said, “As market leaders we’re always looking at ways to accommodate businesses for meetings, conferences, conventions and exhibitions while creating an experience to remember.

“We’re embracing change and look forward to our guests enjoying the new look and feel to the conference spaces with the upgraded technology.

“We’re passionate about making a difference and that’s reflected in our efforts to ensure we host events that are both productive and successful,” she said.

Located next to the Whakarewarewa Thermal Reserve, Holiday Inn Rotorua is surrounded by beautiful natural scenery, Maori culture and a bustling hub of outdoor adventure activity.

Many conference guests take advantage of everything Rotorua has to offer by extending their stay to explore the North Island’s adventure capital or to take part in team building exercises.
