Top Motunui Hotel Reviews

The State Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is really special, it is very well decorated, all the spaces are so pretty, the room is really cute and you have everything that you need with very good quality. The hotel is in the city center very close to the shops, restaurants, coffee shops and all the touristic points. They have a private parking lot that is so convenient."

Fitzroy Beach Holiday Park

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot. Right next to the beach. Room had everything I needed including electric heater. This is one of my favourite places in Taranaki."

Auto Lodge Motor Inn

8/10 Good

"Staff were very friendly and close enough to most things"

Plymouth International

8/10 Good

"Generally a good clean room and staff helpful"

The Metrotel Motel

8/10 Good

"Everything is so close just at walking distance."

Novotel New Plymouth Taranaki

10/10 Excellent

"Clean rooms, nice and quiet. Although this may have been because I requested an upper floor. But that request was granted as was our request to check out at midday. The hotel was very accommodating and the staff very helpful. The only downside is that it is about a 15-20min walk to the centre of town, but we didn’t find that a major drawback and walked everywhere. I highly recommend this property."

King and Queen Hotel Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Quiet,clean, comfortable, friendly. Excellent."

Belt Road Seaside Holiday Park

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were amazing and very helpful for getting in and explaining where the unit was. Unit A1 and my sea view amazing."

Millennium Hotel New Plymouth Waterfront

8/10 Good

"Great place on the waterfront. Loved the fact they have a 9:30PM to 05:00M “night owl menu” that includes great carb heavy options if you’ve been out drinking or granola and yoghurt if you have to get up super early, before the official breakfast starts. Fair value for money. Would stay there again. Just a shame the room doors are so heavy that it wakes you up when someone shuts the door down the corridor even though no one is slamming them."
