Wonderful location + fabulous staff = impeccable stay.

Lady at the front desk was so warm and welcoming, made our stay a treat! Facilities were impeccable - great cleanliness and lovely lounge. Was nice to have space outside of the rooms, and the opportunity to mingle with other guests.

Highly recommend for a classy but unique place to stay

We loved the style of the Poshotel and enjoyed talking to the owner who was hosting during our stay. It was quiet, the rooms were immaculate and we loved the breakfast set up and choices. It's very close to Countdown so it's also easy to stock up on whatever you need for your travels.

Great staff, great room, best breakfast!

Fantastic helpful staff. Loved the theme details of the hotel and the room (very appropriate considering we were in town for Steampunk festival). The breakfast was amazing! Fresh bagels, local cheeses, local full cream milk, fruit galore, excellent cereal and home-made muffins. And of course freshly brewed coffee! Our room had its own entrance and off street park right outside. We will definitely stay again next year for the festival.
