The staff were really nice. Restaurant great. That is where it ends. This is a 1960-70 ear no money spent in the rooms. I had a double bed that was I think 1970 smelly old duvets. No real heater in the room a little noisy panel thing that really down nothing. Cold shower crap pressure. I don’t call it a hotel. It is a back packers at best

Updated bathroom, but I swear that the bed is from the 1980’s. The constant chirping from the crossing signal outside the window added much-needed ambiance. The staff were lovely and very helpful.

We cant rate the Kelvin hotel highly enough. We stayed there during the Bluff Oyster festival and attended a different large function. Despite the hotel being fully booked,nothing was a problem. This included making my husband a beautiful toasted sandwich & chips very late at night, when most hotels wouldve said the kitchen was already closed. The weather was freezing wind & rain,but the hotel & our room was very cosy. Its located within easy walking distance of the CBD,& has secure parking. The free parking was a huge bonus,as over 1000 were at the same event as us,so many had to walk a very long distance. We would highly recommend the Kelvin to anyone.
