The front desk staff was very friendly & helpful.In the room the carpet was worn out at some places, although the aircon was on 18° it still was very hot & we opted to sleep with an open slider. I bumped my toe on the metal part at the bathroom door, because it wasn't leveled up with tile. Found a wet dirty face-cloth on the bathroom floor & there were no indication that it was serviced. So been first time visitors & for the amount we paid, the stay wasn't pleasant at all.

My kids and I loved staying at Portside Hotel. There is currently construction going on next door but we didn't hear too much loud noise. We had a two bedroom suite. One with queen bed and another with two king singles. The second beroom wasnt designed to fit two single beds but my teenage kids made the small amount of space in the bedroom work. The bathroom is showing signs of aging. There was a squeaky loose tile. The fan in the bathroom had a lot of dust on it. Could be from the washer and dryer in the bathroom. The fan probably needs to be cleaned more frequently. Enjoyed having washer dryer in room as we stayed 3 nights and multiple trips to the Gisborne pool. Lovely cleaning crew and reception staff. Would definitely book again.

The property was very convenient to the city and the warehouse, noel leemimgs and stationary warehouse was behind the property so very easy to walk to if you like these stores. There was also a walkway along the river, so great for those early morning walks and to Waikanae beach. The only thing that was disappointing was that i had booked 2 rooms and was not able to get adjoining rooms, which may have been inconvenient to neighbors as we had to consistently knock on the others door, day, morning at night when we wanted to visit of drop by with food. Also would of been nice to have a cafe/ restaurant onsite. Other than that it was a nice place to stay.
