Pukekura Motor Lodge
We stayed here for a weekend. Check in was easy and welcoming. Our room was ready, and spotlessly clean. Our bed was comfortable, and although our room was close to the main road, we were not disturbed by traffic noise.

Distinction New Plymouth Hotel
Very friendly and helpful staff, easy parking and a central location. We had a two bedroom apartment. I enjoyed the dark, windowless bedrooms after a day hiking to the top of Mt Taranaki, they were very quiet.
