Ararata Hotel & Travel Guide\n
Those dreaming about visiting Ararata are advised to think about securing a room sooner rather than later, as they won't find a large number of lodging options near the center of town.
When you and your family would like to book a hotel not far from the middle of Ararata, the Ariari Lodge, Lake Rotorangi is an ideal Travelocity-listed choice.
13 miles (22 kilometers) from the center of Ararata, you can find the Amity Court Motel. The Stratford Heritage Lodge is positioned 12 miles (20 kilometers) away. Alternative places to rest your head are the ASURE Antonio Mews Motel and the Tairoa Lodge & Cottage.
Once you have explored Ararata, why not discover a little more of the region? The North Island vicinity boasts a number of places to see. If you love nature, get ready to discover North Island's beaches, coastal plains and forests. While you're at it, venture through many of its art museums. Common pastimes in this particular area of New Zealand include snowboarding.
Consider spending a day or two checking out Observatory and Saint Mary's Church, in New Plymouth, 35 miles (56 kilometers) northwest of Ararata. The King and Queen Hotel Suites and Asure Saddle & Sulky Motor Lodge are just a handful of the long and short-stay choices in New Plymouth. 10 miles (16 kilometers) to the southwest of Ararata, you can find Hawera, which is home to the Hawera Central Motor Lodge and The Park Motel. Regardless of whether you're passing through or spending a few nights in Hawera, set aside some time to check out the Tawhiti Museum and King Edward Park.
When cheering on sport is what you love, stop by Yarrow Stadium, which is 35 miles (56 kilometers) to the northwest of Ararata. Book Travelocity-listed accommodation in the middle of the sporting action at the Pukekura Motor Lodge or the Copthorne Hotel Grand Central New Plymouth.
