We would definitely stay here again.

Our room was great, clean, large with a very comfortable bed. Close to lots of restaurants and the RSL. The continental breakfast was included in the tariff. There were sufficient options in cereals, breads and condiments. The staff were very friendly and helpful and looked like they really enjoyed working there. The lounge areas were nice and cosy.

A lovely heritage hotel.

Loved the heritage building. Very well maintained. The room we stayed in was perfect. It was spacious and included tea and coffee making facilities. A shower over the bath but with a handrail. A continental breakfast was included which was a nice touch.

Nice heritage hotel at a fair price

The hotel is a beautiful heritage building, nicely restored, and still in Australian private ownership. That is very commendable. The service was very friendly, and the noisy fridge was solved quickly.

Wonderful old hotel. Michelle the manager is an absolute star.

Great location, walking distance from all the restaurants and shops. Really loved the cosy old fashioned Lounge area to sit and enjoy a glass of red with a book. Michelle the receptionist was extremely lovely.
