1-night trip

6/10 Good

This place is in a great location and has so much old world charm that it could be a great hotel. But it's run down, lots of broken things, and not clean enough for most Americans.
Dawn, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Over priced , the property is. Falling apart with dust mites eating the furniture , door frame are falling off. Breakfast is 7.00 to 9.00 , you should go down as the is on milk in the room the have coffee or tea not even a spoon.
Philip, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff was sweet.They were always helpful and professional. The only thing I didn't like was the parking spaces. Because this is also a bar &restaurant the parking spots sometimes full. We had a rental car and we didn't want to park it anywhere else but the hotel. Other then that I enjoyed my stay. Thank you so much.
Ann, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff was very friendly, welcoming and helpful. The A/C in the room was wonderful because it was really hot outside. The room was also very spacious. The WiFi however was weak and would go on and off. There is a Chinese restaurant downstairs for convenience and other shops and downtown are within walking distance.

Rajesh, 8-night trip

8/10 Very good

Some of the reviews were pretty terrible so was not expecting much from this hotel. However, we had a great room, clean linen, hot water and a working tv, Aircon and kettle! Plus the breakfast was pretty good too! I was more than happy!

Located next to the seaside but in need of refurbishment
Vikas, 13-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My daughter & I really enjoyed our stay at the Emerald. The staff were very friendly, the Asian meal from their restaurant was v nice & it was worth while paying extra for the ocean view room
Sue, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

The staff were excellent but the room was not too great. TV was cracked and unusable. Tea and coffee facilities but no bottled water or milk provided. Restaurant good and breakfast pleasant. No sleep possible firstly due to there being a karaoke session from a nearby place that finally ended at 615am. Then loud talking and laughing in the corridor and adjacent room. Will not stay here again.
Craig, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff were lovely, and attentive, and tried their best to accomodate. Reception wasn’t really helpful at times, but the cleaning staff and dining staff were. Breakfast was delicious!

Rundown hotel.

We stayed two times for one night so in total two nights. Very rundown hotel. Few stains on the sheets and towels. On our first night no hot water. Ac remote was only in Chinese. Second night the room was pretty clean and the shower had warm water. But the toilet was not working.
