Quaint and Hidden Charm
This is a gorgeous little place tucked nicely off The Prominad in Takapuna. It has an old-school, classic charm to it. It still has a key to unlock the room, which I loved. The room was a perfect size, extremely clean, and well kept. I would recommend this to anyone.

Perfect family spot in Takapuna
Our quick one night stay at the Emerald Inn in Takapuna was lovely. The two bedroom room layout was perfect for our family, the location was ideal, everyone was very kind and welcoming, and the gardens/pool area were very nice. We would stay here again.

Excellent location
Great location! Easy walking to restaurants, shops, and the lake. Our room was super-clean. The parking is a bit tight, especially if your room is around the back, but it worked ok. We stayed here in February and it was pretty warm. There is no air conditioning, and the windows provide little ventilation. There was a fan in the closet, which helped.

Great location near Takapuna Beach and all the restaurants in Takapuna, but the property itself is a little tired.

The rooms were well furnished and included everything I needed for my stay such as iron, fan, heater, kitchen and appliances. It was very convenient having the second door that connected to the courtyard and a peaceful place to sit outside and drink my teas in the morning. The employees were very kind and friendly and were able to help me with anything I needed in my room.
