Never even a hello from reception staff throughout our whole stay. Room was very basic. Shower pressure was a dribble and thats being kind. Worst ive had. No toiletries, no crockery or cutlery at all, even a bowl for snacks wouldve been something, bar not open till 4, couldnt even get a juice and was stinking hot outside. Wouldnt stay again. Cleaning needs improvement, filthy lightswitches and surfaces. Pool was cloudy did not look clean either.

We really enjoyed our stay at Devon and its facilities. It’s near the coastal walk with free bikes to use. Their garden, spa and pool and sculptures are wonderful. Unfortunately we didn’t have the time to use their free gym and the aquatic pool which are located out of site.

It was fab having a small fridge. Shower was spacious and great pressure. A bit cramped though and not much space for cosmetic bags etc. Overall v impressed, and it was very good value for money. I'd definitely stay again.

It was a short 2 night stay (fishing trip), and I thought that the accommodations were excellent as I checked-in in the evening, but it was even better in the daylight as my room overlooked the water. I have never stayed anywhere in the world with a kinder staff. You New Zealanders are very nice, but every person that I interacted with at the hotel was wonderful. Thank you! I will definitely be back.

As always, an pleasant and comfortable stay, and excellent value for money, with exceptional customer service. Was upgraded to a suite upon arrival, sadly we found water coming in from outside during torrential rain which we informed of upon check out (found out when going sleep, but it didnt affect our stay too much other than soggy socks when closing the curtain). One of the most comfortable beds and pillows, so plush. Beautiful buffet breakfast the following morining, with again exceptional staff (I didnt catch the ladies name on breakfast duty, but she was very accomodating and friendly towards us all, and made our stay even more inviting). Was then able to make the most of the heated pool and spa before setting off after check out. Just an all round fantastic experience, yet again! Keep up the amazing hospitality guys.

We are trying to find more reasons to visit New Plymouth just to stay here again. Thanks for giving us such a great stay! ( 4 nights)

room was great, nice polished and clean stainless handrails. hotel and bar staff friendly & helpful. disappointed at how many plates were dirty in the clean area, post dishwasher food pieces, and alot of plates still wet. we were the first to arrive for breakfast and i was also disappointed to find hard boiled eggs instead of runny poached eggs. everything else was pretty good but i can see marbles has changed alot over the last year or so, the waiters and kitchen staff has changed. the quality of the food has gone downhill. somebody should be appointed to quality control to keep the previous standards up cheers phil

Going to New Plymouth and staying at the Devon Hotel just go hand in hand. From the moment you arrive, the staff make you feel welcome and looked after. The buffet is absolutely amazing!!! plenty of variety, fresh, and delicious. (find me rolling back to my room) The price is fantastic for what you get, and the beds and pillows are so comfortable it’s hard to leave in the morning. The rooms are lovely, well kept, and have everything you need for a relaxing stay. Couldn’t recommend it more!
