Bed comfortable, bathroom small.andn everything supplied. but there was NO easychair in the room so you had to lie on bed, or sit upright at the table... not very restful. There was room to of...

Wow what an awesome hotel. My mates and I used to stay here in the late 70's and early 80's during Telethon weekends and weekends away. So lucky the staff has changed and did not recognise me. We even had our photo's on the celebrity board in the old foyer, sneaked in while they were not looking. Lots of autographs... More

Just stayed for the one night, room a little on the tight size but met all my needs and was quiet. The bed; very comfortable with a good mattress this will ensure my use of this hotel again. Restaurant is a large buffet affair and is popular with the local families, and the waitress found me a table away from... More

This was certainly a nice surprise to walk in & stay here as I could see what The Devon was like via the web. Nice and fairly new (the accommodation part) though my room was a bit tight but feel that could be overcome by changing the layout. Would happy to come back with fairly basic (more family / buffet)... More

Good hotel with a small Pool nice restaurant, but the room (its very easy to hear what the nabor is doing), i will be here for more then 2 weeks, so if it is not getting better i will have to move. The city of New Plymouth seems nice, and they have bikes here for you to use.

I stayed at the Devon as one of around 200 people on a Suzuki Rally event. First impressions count and that certainly proved true for the Lounges, bar and general facilities of the Hotel. The hotel staff was friendly and coped well with the large influx of visitors. Our Buffet dinner in the evening was well presented and the food... More

We originally booked a $115 room for three nights, which was adequate. My husband wanted a bigger spa so we upgraded to a suite (for a very reasonable price). Couldn't fault it, we had a separate bedroom which was handy when someone wants to rest during the day without being disturbed. Went to Marbles buffet, enjoyed the food immensely. Plenty... More
