The Empire Hotel has historic associations with Palmerston North - it was the city's first school. In 1890 the school was relocated and the building was converted into a hotel and has been a popular hotel both for local residents and visitors to the city.
Our 14 rooms are comfortable and tidy. They have ensuite bathrooms, tea/coffee making facilities and SKY TV. Located in the city centre makes for an easy stroll to shopping and inner city attractions. The bar downstairs is one of the most popular bars in town and we also boast having Palmerston North's only Mexican Restaurant. We're perfect for golfers or sports teams looking to stay and enjoy the great night life of Palmerston North.
With all the above, Off street parking, 18 gaming machines, Manned TAB facilities, a pool table, covered smoking areas, and only a five minute drive to airport, you can't go wrong!

Following is feedback posted by visitors to this property:Negatives: checking in at an open bar because reception is not open is not ideal. Corridor to rooms was musty smelling, and room was extremely hot at 8.30pm. The coloured towels was a put off, would like to have seen white towels as a sign of cleanliness. Net curtains in room needed a wash as they were discoloured/brown. Positives: must say besides the net curtains the rest of the room was very clean. Bar down stairs was popular and great for drinks. Bed was very comfortable. Staff were helpful apart from checking in. Late check out was great. Location location location if you were after a good night out lots of bars around here.

Comfortable, clean and a bargain for a nights stay. Close to everything and the staff were friendly accommodating. .

Pretty sweet place to stay. Serious about the fact they're a night club with accommodation and let me in at 2:32am to get to 'sleep'. Check in was easy as was everything else so for the fair price you couldn't do much better.

Great location, right in the centre of town. Friendly staff, very helpful. Downside was that there was no one ever at reception so we had to inform the bar staff of problems that had occurred. Other than that was pretty good...

Lucky me, stayed 3 nights(sat,sun,mon) in a room far from the bar. It was quiet. The bar downstairs was nice, i had a good time with other quests.staff(both bar and housekeeping) are kind, ready to help me. Water pressure was strong enough. Clean towel and sheets but little bit smelly from duvet. Very close to town, it takes just 2-3min.i would stay again. .
