This is a fabulous hotel. I started my stay for two nights and extended three more. Very courteous and helpful staff. Rooms were quiet, comfortable beds and very nice sheets and pillowcases. Would highly recommend this place. One of the best hotel stays I’ve ever had.

The property was conveniently located at the centre of the city. Good customer service from all staff. The room was clean and tidy. They allow late check-outs (depending on room availability). Overall, good place to stay in New Plymouth.

All the staff there, we found to be so friendly, efficient and very helpful. Thank you to the chefs in the bistro bar for the delicious meals. Steaks cooked to perfection. Clean premises and guest room. Carpet in our room, although clean, looked a bit worn and also the single chair in our room, the material was frayed at the armrest. However, the amazing staff there, made the experience 10/10.

The location is great with easy access for getting around the one-way street system. The hotel is modern and the rooms are spacious and clean. We had a twin room which looked in-to a large concrete wall which was very unpleasant. The hotel was not able to move us to a better room which was disappointing as we were here for pleasure not business.

Paid a whopping $524 for one night for a 2 bedroom suite. It's really hard to get the room dark even after turning all the lights off, dimming the display on the alarm next to the bed, turning off the aircon unit off so that the green neon light won't lit up the room. The curtails allow a lot of light from bright neon signage from Plymouth international across the road. Had a sleepless night and I had a long drive the next day which was tiresome.

Comfortable but not luxurious

Clean and comfortable room, but lots of little niggles. Accor seem to have gone on a profit kick, you can’t just check in and go and put your feet up - they tell you all about their membership first. Full fridge of things to buy in the room, but a note saying you can call reception for milk for your coffee if you want it. Even the water is for a fee. The TV has a weird surround that means you have to turn it up weird to hear it. And if you’re a few minutes late to check out, you’ll get a call to chase you out the building. Not the best, maybe not worth the price.

After paying peak rate during Easter holiday the room aircon was not working (not cooling) during the daytime. I was given a fan to cool the room and was told that the room has design flaws and they are in process of upgrading the aircon system.

We drove to New Plymouth, on checking in we were told parking onsite would be an additional $20 per day. Last time we stayed there parking was free!!!! Secure parking onsite is part of staying in the hotel we thought. We got back late, no one answered the night bell to let us in and the swipe card to enter didn’t work. Had to phone them to let me in
