This was a wonderful stay! Spacious, clean and very cute.

Nice place, has everything you need for a stay. In a safe and quiet neighbourhood. Very close to New World/ Countdown for food shops. Brett at reception was very friendly and welcoming. Comfy beds. Showers take a little while to heat up so it felt like I was wasting water but the hot water came through eventually. Would definitely recommend Duck & Drakes!

Brett was great, supportive, and has a caring personality...carried my bags from the car as i was on crutches.
My bed was very comfortable with a nice view out on the courtyard.
The kitchen has everything and there is a large lounge, sun/day room and dinning room...spacious, tidy and clean.
Great value for money.

This is our accommodation of choice when we go to Ngāmotu (New Plymouth). The separate accommodation is excellent, and the location is fantastic.

I chose a one-bedroom cottage unit for our stay to give us a bit of extra room. I thought that by staying at Ducks & Drakes, we would be able to walk to some of the New Plymouth sites and this was the case. I also wanted to use the shuttle service to get to the National Park, but instead Brett recommended another company that offered private 3-hour city tours which suited our needs better, particularly as the weather was not great.

Great communication, pleasant and very accommodating staff at check-in. Room was large and clean. Only thing I would want added would be a fan as it gets really warm in the summer

Facility was in very good condition for a hostel. I stayed 4 nights in a private single room and would return. Great location. Walking distance to downtown and several grocery stores within a few blocks. But just a couple of blocks from the business zone in a quiet neighborhood.

1 bedroom cabin walking distance to CBD. Nice room, only missing few little things like dish cloth, tea towel and light globe in lamp. Staff very nice, friendly. Fire alarm went off at 2 am which was a horrible shock in the middle of the night! think it was just a false alarm. Overall, had everything we needed/expected. Stairs to room could be problem for some with heavy luggage. Was at good price, can’t complain.

Price worthy and central in New Plymouth. Walking distance to supermarkets and downtown. Limited parking. $5 extra for sauna if you book through hotels.comLittle out dated but clean room. Room not cleaned daily but towel changed. Heather (and hot water bottle...)in the room. Would not live here with my family but alone for a few nights is OK.

Stayed in one of the motel units. It was great, really cute decor and super spacious with everything you could need. Much more comfortable and quieter than the hotels in the city area I usually stay in but still close to the main cbd.
