Nice place but paid a premium (5x standard rate) on NYE for a room and no bar of dinner facilities open. Meal voucher or bottle of wine would have gone a long way. Entrance is weird and smells awful, not very inviting.

Fantastic hotel right in the middle of the city! I was extremely happy staying here and could pop outside at any time and I’d have a plethora of food options! Highly recommended if you want a well priced conveniently located hotel in the CBD! The rooms were beautiful too!

Ok, but not as good as it could be.
This hotel is ok. In my opinion a bit overpriced for what it delivers. Yes the 1 lift is slow, but I wanting a hurry. The feather pillow options were nice, and the proper king sized bed was appreciated. The room was simple, surprised there were no tissues. However, the TV situation was frustrating. Chromecast didn’t work and reception staff couldn’t resolve the issue. Our tv also switched off automatically after 5 mins. Became that frustrating we had to leave the hotel. The afternoon shift were amazing. The lady changed a setting and resolved it. The water pressure in the shower was light and disappointing, with not enough pressure for the full effect of a rain shower showerhead. Overall it was ok, but better options to explore at this price point
