There are better places to visit that are much less difficult to travel to than Gisborne, we went because we had never been before so it was good to see the place but wouldn’t go to the trouble to go back.
Roadworks from Napier to Gisborne were many with many stoppages. Long slow winding road. Gisborne to Whakatane however was a very pleasant very scenic drive starting off with Gisborne's horticulture then farmland then through a native forested river gorge. Gisborne's main retail strip looks great and is well laid out, the palm trees set it off so well on a sunny day. The famous Eastwoodhill Arboretum was a bit of a let down, it was a big reason we finally decided to add Gisborne to our trip however it didn’t live up to the online pictures and information we saw of it. Basically it’s just hilly farmland heavily planted out sporadically with various trees and riddled with many tracks colour coded but good luck trying to completely follow a particular track as some markers weren’t there at various intersections. It’s nice for a bit of a hilly tree walk but there is nothing particularly organised or grand about the plantings that looks anything like you see of tree plantings in various Botanical Gardens.

My first time visit to gisborne.
My first time visit to gisborne. Town centre is not big, but it was interesting. I enjoyed the botanical gardens and small museum during my visit. My visit was the middle of winter, but still enjoyable.

I found the Cook Landing Reserve to be underwhelming, It was disappointing in that there was not much about Captain Cook at the site, just gourds.
The Gisborne Museum was worth a visit.
The beaches would have been lovely if not for cyclone Hale.

Sadly economic conditions and the requirements for earthquake improvements has seen a lot of buildings in the CBD close up shops a sad barren appearance. No street performers no music in the air the city council needs to do more to bring the city back to life.
High prices on everything makes it even harder for the locals visitors think twice before buying.
A shaddow of what it used to be. 😢
Good breakfast with sufficient supplies. Great location very close to the city and most of the attractions/restaurants etc.
Very friendly hosts Herman and Nadene. Their recommendations helped us greatly to quickly jump on exploring attractions in Gisborne easily. We stayed 3 nights and feel could spend easily up to 4 to 5 nights in Gisborne as there are plenty of places to visit from good beaches, rivers, parks, walks, museum etc.
Great location -- short walk to center of town and city beach. Room/bathroom very comfortable, well equipped and very clean. Bed was sooooo comfortable. Owner/Host very knowledgeable, friendly with helpful advice. I highly recommend and would be my choice of where to stay in Gisborne.
Loved this place. Loved the history of the building. Tony was a great entertaining, accommodating, and hospital host who made me a fantastic breakfast and gave me great advice about visiting Gisborne. I also enjoyed meeting the other guests and the bed was super comfortable.
The Motel was just what we needed, good location, very clean, good WIFI and easy to login using the motel QR setup.
We only required a place to stay as we visited family in Gisborne and it fitted the bill, Thank you for the nice very quiet room. David and Tatiana
Clean and roomy with all the basics. Great budget family hotel. Close to the beach but it had a pool too. Small onsite shop at Reception if you needed something. Breakfast available. Large bathroom with walk-in shower. Easy parking. Approachable staff.
Easy to find on arrival in Gisborne, and very well furnished and equipped. Many little 'extras' such as a choice of cereals, chocolates, and a very unobtrusive but highly appreciated unit service during the stay.
Perfect place to stay in Gisborne, close to shops and the beach. Tidy and clean unit with good aircon, smart tv in lounge and in room. Bed was comfortable and have a personal carpark right outside your door.
Wonderful apartment, comfy bed and had everything you could want. Great location too. Would definitely stay here again when in Gisborne. Owners were helpful and friendly in their comms also.
