My dad and I enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The greeting and care extended by the bellhop named Steve made our stay a home away from home. The hotel property itself was lovely and our room was very clean. I love the location of the hotel and would return, hopefully very soon!

Second stay in a fortnight, but this room was better than previously (both “superior twin rooms”). The aircon was fully functional this time (you can’t open the windows), and the furniture seemed somewhat less tired. Staff have always been friendly and helpful on both stays and public areas are nicely presented. I understand that some of the rooms are due to be refurbed soon, but until then however I’m not sure that the price per night is fully justified. The key benefit of this hotel is its excellent location which is ideal for tourism, or in our case, the nearby Cromwell Hospital. The pillows were still too thin for all 3 of us though.

I stayed the first room. There is only hot water out from the sink. Then change to another room. The shower could could work and only can use the tub. Then, I asked the hotel to fix it. Great location, spacious room and great service. However, it's old and the facility does not work very well.

Slow Reception
The check in process was very slow, with a long queue in reception. The lobby seating area was closed for no apparent reason so people were sat next to the queue adding to confusion where the queue ended. After a lengthy wait, we had a free room upgrade which was nice, but then the room was shabby with a noisy refrigerator. Two room keys were issued with only one activated, which led to a lengthy wait trying to get the elevator. We tried to take the stairs but couldn’t find them due to poor signage. On the way down in the elevator it doesn’t indicate which floor you are on. Have stayed here before, but will never return now.
