Auto Lodge Motor Inn  

On New Plymouth’s Strandon edge, this beachside motor inn sits close to the Coastal Walkway and Pukekura Park. You’ll be a short stroll from Puke Ariki, the Wind Wand and the Govett-Brewster Len Lye Centre, with the city centre and New Plymouth Airport a quick drive away. Pet-friendly and conveniently near the waterfront.

Rooms feel like a tidy home base with fridges and some kitchenettes, flat-screen TVs and private bathrooms with shower/tub combos. Expect practical perks like complimentary Wi‑Fi, desks, weekday newspapers and hair dryers. The vibe is relaxed and familiar — comfortable for couples, solo travellers or road-trip stops.

Take a dip in the indoor pool or unwind in the spa tub. Enjoy an on-site restaurant and bar/lounge, grab room service during limited hours, and fuel up with a buffet-style breakfast if you like. Onsite parking, laundry and an elevator keep things easy; wake up to sea-breeze mornings just steps from the coast.

Conference space, meeting rooms and a business centre handle corporate needs. Complimentary Wi‑Fi, luggage storage and free self-parking make meetings and events straightforward.

An on-site restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner daily, with a la carte evening options and a buffet breakfast available for a fee. A relaxed bar/lounge is handy for after‑hours drinks, and limited-hour room service covers late arrivals.
