Fodor's Expert Review Senator Motor Inn

Offering comfortable, modern accommodations with lovely views over the marina and inner harbor on one side and main-street shopping on the doorstep, this motel has an ideal location that ticks all the boxes. It's just a stone's throw from the wharf, a two-minute walk from town, and a five-minute drive from one of Gisborne's best surfing beaches. Both studios and suites are available, each with its own terrace.
