Ducks and Drakes Boutique Motel and Backpackers

$ | 48 Lemon St., New Plymouth, 4310, New Zealand

A place for travelers rather than party animals, Ducks and Drakes offers character, color, and modern accommodations within walking distance of shops, cafés, and Pukekura Park. Rooms come in all shapes and sizes, each scrupulously clean. Those in the main building (singles, twins, doubles, and dorms for up to six people) share bathrooms, but there are plenty to go around. Guests also share an outdoor veranda, communal kitchen, cool dining area, sun porch, two cozy, warm lounges, and full laundry facilities. Five self-contained motel units with kitchenettes open to gardens and have off-street parking.

Pros

  • Comfortable lounge
  • Lots of cozy places to relax, indoors and outdoors
  • Friendly hosts

Cons

  • Old, steep staircase in main building
  • Parking is tight and prioritized for motel guests
  • Most rooms share bathrooms
