翡翠飯店及餐廳(Emerald Hotel & Restaurant)

Good hotel and location is also good

Had a brilliant stay here and just loved this hotel. Having booked, I was a bit concerned at some of the previous reviews. Let's be honest if you are looking for 5 star luxury this is probably not for you. However, I had a very large room that was very clean with good WiFi. Staff were very friendly and greeted me by name all the time. Not sure if the Chinese restaurant has changed hands but the food I had was excellent and very tasty. The hotel is in an ideal location and you can easily walk to beaches and other sites. High recommended if you want something slightly different from the usual corporate experience. Many thanks!

Ok place to sleep, air conditioning was good, shower good, room clean, wifi was bad had to sit in the corridor for it to work. Restaurant seemed to be Chinese food so wasn’t interested, breakfast a plain continental so ok. All in all ok for the price

This place needs work. The staff are friendly and the restaurant downstairs is good for vegetarian options. The building itself feels like a place someone has either inherited or overpaid and they're not quite sure which market they are going for. If I were them, I would concentrate on a few rooms, replace the appliances, fix the towel racks etc and progressively renovate.

I would say this is an ok place to spend a night. Unlike a lot of places in Tonga, I wouldn’t drink the water there. We had to ask for things like water, shampoo, etc. that were complimentary at other hotels. Pretty run down. My room had a broken sink bowl and the facet was so loose I had to hold it with one hand and turn it on/off with the other. The morning ride was ordered in time but there was no way to order an early breakfast. Friendly but we had to wake the night watchman up to help us with our bags. Won’t stay again but as I said, in a pinch it is ok for 1 night.

To say this place is "dilapidated" is an understatement. I was ready to check out the moment I walked in to my room. HOWEVER, if a beachfront (balcony) room with a GREAT bed, HOT shower and super lovely staff are important to you, then give this place a go. There's so much to do in Nuku'alofa, that the rest doesn't matter.

Was quite dusty when we first arrived and noisy by the main road. Door to balcony didnt open easily but we got it moving. Extra bed was quite hard and frame was rusty. Staff were nice, we had lots of queries which they handled for us. Good location for town and was a good place to just chill in the evenings

The local staff are wonderful and helpful but the Chinese owners have let the hotel run down. It’s pretty decrepit in parts though the bedding seems ok. It’s overpriced for what it offers but it is centrally located. The room cleaning is a little lax.
