Very central to walk to all cafes and restaurants and waterfront . Spacious room, very clean. Staff wonderful . Will definitely stay again and would recommend to friends
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Loved our stay here! Motorcycle parking half a block away meant that we didn't share other reviewers' concerns about parking. Easy walking distance to several good restaurants and cafes. The only downside was the loud guests at a nearby bar, but accommodation providers can't control everything. We'd happily stay again.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Fully refurbished room within a newly refurbished hotel. Great central location with parking (local council) available within a 3 minute walk. Bars, shops and restaurants nearby and a short 2 minute walk to promenade. Room has a kitchenette which is very handy. The member of staff ‘Charlie’ was extremely helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. Can highly recommend this hotel and will definitely return.

8/10 Very good

This hotel is gorgeous- the refurbishment is beautifully done and the room I had was really spacious. The bed was comfy and the kitchenette and barhroom were user-friendly and super clean. I will say the parking can be a bit of an issue, particularly if you have bags to drop off and because of the location ( the middle of the CBD) the street and traffic noise is really loud. If you dont mind street noise though its the perfect innercity stay.

Checkin was a bit so so. NPC receptionist with I assume the boyfriend eating dinner on the couch. Reception was an empty room with a desk. A little strange.

Parking is an absolute mission, but that's the only complaint, price you pay for city centre stay. No complaints in all fairness just work around it
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful clean place to stay, the sheets were fabulous quality, the bed was great. I didn't have a view but that was ok. I arrived late at night, some parking advise for guests is necessary. No milk provided for tea or coffee a bit disappointing. A fabulous café downstairs, for the best coffee and pastries also very classy. They should be working together. Beautiful place to stay and great location.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice place to stay I paid via hotels.com and I still had to give them my credit card and drivers license which annoyed me. But the place is really nice inside the curtains in my room didn’t block out the street lights that were on all night
Verified review

8/10 Very good

It’s new, tidy, clean but lacks soul. I had a massive room that was mostly empty space and no artwork on the walls to give it some character. It’s as if no thought was put into the decorating. Needs some work in the decor department
