About

In North Island, Northgate Motor Lodge is a motel at 16-18 Northgate in Strandon, New Plymouth. Auckland, Wellington, Rotorua, Taupo and Hamilton are all within reach, making the lodge a practical base for exploring the western coast.

With a 4.4 out of 5 average from 162 reviews, the motel has established a reliable reputation among travellers. A website at http://www.northgatemotorlodge.co.nz/ provides further detail.

Traffic drives on the left across New Zealand, and hire cars are the usual way to travel on the larger islands, so arranging a vehicle before arrival is worthwhile.

First-time visitors can expect straightforward motel accommodation with the convenience of a central New Plymouth location. The lodge's position on Northgate puts guests close to the city's amenities while keeping the wider region accessible. English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names are used throughout the country. Seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August. Māori culture is central to national life, with marae, haka and the Treaty of Waitangi signed in 1840.
