Located in the heart of New Plymouth, walking distance to the city's finest restaurants, art, retail and business precincts. The State Hotel is a 15 room boutique hotel and only a 5-minute walk to the New Plymouth Coastal Walkway.

The whimsical decorating in the hotel matches the general atmosphere of New Plymouth. The location is conveniently located in the city center with plenty of dining options nearby. This also serves as a nice base for exploring the Egmont National Park and other nearby beaches. Luke was incredibly knowledgeable and was happy to assist with my questions, The hotel has free private parking nearby. Keep in mind that all rooms are located on the second floor and the hotel does not have elevators. This was well-advertised on the booking, but it deserves emphasizing.

    We love the architecture and interior design of the beautiful property, and its peaceful and quiet environment. It exceeded our expectations and was the best accommodation we stayed in for our 3-week holiday in New Zealand. The hosts Wendy and Darren are communicative and responsive. We highly recommend the property.

    We couldn't fault anything, loved everything and hope to go back again soon. Cassie and Shaun are so welcoming such lovely people. The amenities are excellent, luxury linens and toiletries, extra touches such as chocolates and biscuits. We enjoyed the retro record player and art works as much as the stunning beach front views. Such a stunning property so well considered I can see why this property is so poplar. An easy walk into the city, cafes and restaurants. Thank you so much Cassie and Shaun : )

    Stunning views of Mt Taranaki and surrounding countryside. A very peaceful location - all you can hear are the birds and the stream that runs through the property. With no light pollution, there's an incredible view of the Milky Way at night. Gorgeous cabin, clean, warm and cosy. Our lovely hosts left breakfast, wine and chocolates.

    Beautifully appointed room, friendly and polite staff, and love the food and beverages in the atrium and across the road. Lovely to have a wee note welcoming me back with a chocolate - unexpected , then topped it with a Christmas note and chocolate on Christmas day. Wonderful location for lovers of fine food, drinks, the waterfront and walkway, galleries and designer shopping. Only place I stay in NP.
