The Devon Hotel A Heritage Hotel
This was a great stay. Everything was perfect. I had to have emergency eye surgery in Auckland. I wish I recovered at a place like this compared to the place I had to stay for a week.

Great value to be so close to the beach and hear the waves (Just don’t forget your sleeping bag).

Quest New Plymouth
Staff and accommodation were excellent. There was a small hitch with the bedroom TV remote and bedside clock but this should not deter people from this hotel. Highly recommended.
