Distinction New Plymouth Hotel
This hotel is nice and close to the city centre. We enjoyed the proximity to restaurants and the coastal walkway. The accommodation was spacious for our family and staff helped when we had issues with aircon and some supplies in our room.

Auto Lodge Motor Inn
Good location with Cbd in close walking proximity. Apart from spa being unusable (looked like human soup) and rooms having bad condensation overnight due to lack of aircon, would stay here again
