I wanted to like this place, but it is terribly neglected. The room was like a somber prison room. The shower had terrible moldy areas, the bathroom didn’t feel clean, towels thin and rough, and the carpet had stains all over it. The a/c did not function properly. The staff moved us to another room which was only slightly improved. The location is great. Staff did their best. I cannot recommend this place unfortunately.

Lobby and reception area are lovely, however rooms are sadly needing some TLC. Airconditioning was noisy and just blew warm air, front reception didnt even attempt to investigate, so had to ask for a fan- which was provided, but shouldn’t be required given what they advertise. Bathroom was tiny, and in need of an update, photos are not reflective at all and quite misleading. Dirty stained carpet. When i asked to change rooms i was told they are all the same. Breakfast cost $35 but had to pay extra for a latte. At best rooms are 3star, not what is advertised. Disappointing stay, and photos should be updated to reflect current state of the rooms.

The hotel has a super location and is clearly a heritage property. From a distance everything looks super but the hotel needs some serious money spending on the decoration, fixtures and fittings which are all really tired, dated and way past their best. The staff in the hotel are super and really do try to do their best for you. If this review was based on the breakfast it would be five star plus. The full house breakfast is absolutely superb. Good ingredients, well cooked and plentiful. Do note that the hotel does not have a passenger lift so you will have to walk up and down the hotel stairs. There is however a luggage lift which means you don’t have to carry luggage up and down.
