Top Gisborne Hotel Reviews

Emerald Hotel

8/10 Good

"large area to relax in (has a bed removed to make way for settee and chairs) view out to street and palms. could hear the music coming from gym across the street early morning other than that reasonably sound proof. Old but comfortable king size bed. Needed air con as rooms hot - corridors were extremely warm. No information in room about amenities."
