                  Unique and outstanding motel”

                  We have stayed at many hotels and motels in New Zealand during our visits over the last 25 years, but nothing matches Senator Motor Inn. A good location at the waterfront overlooking the port. Big and spacious units that comfortable sleep four persons. Hosts Karen and Mark were very helpful in all respects A good continental breakfast is offered as an option. For sure, we will be back next time we visit Gisborne.
