Fire and Emergency New Zealand said the Sudima Hotel in Rotorua was evacuated about 7.30am today. RNZ understands the hotel is being used for quarantining people who have returned to New Zealand from overseas. Hotels in the city became facilities for managed isolation for returning travellers a week ago, once hotels in Auckland were at full capacity.
