Hi, we're Rock Solid Backpackers! We're a Qualmark-Silver hostel located in the centre of Rotorua city, specializing in adventure activities. Once the Geyser Court Mall, our hostel stretches over four large floors with spacious kitchen and lounge facilities for our guests to settle into. Being in the middle of Rotorua, we're a short walk from Polynesian Spa, the Government Gardens, Lakefront, and even lucky enough to have the weekly Night Market just around the corner.

We also run weekly events, including movie night, quiz night and karaoke!
