Stanley Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely old hotel in a wonderful location. Super friendly staff, very comfortable room, magic shower pressure (!!) and quiet. The front bar is a great place for a cozy drink to end the day's sightseeing & their restaurant is absolutely top class with great choices & efficient service. A highly recommended place to stay. :)"

Cosy Coastal Cottage in Stanley Beautiful Outdoor Fire Pit. Pet Friendly.

8/10 Good

"Our experience generally very good. Beds, lighting, air con all good. Two bathrooms good. Property was very suitable for our two dogs to stay with us, well fenced.One complaint that we had was that we could not get the stove top to work at all!!Tried every possible sequence of pushing buttons...no joy at all. All very frustrating. There was a "lock" diagram on the Cooktop, but no idea what for. A set of instructions would have been great!! And I could not contact the host via the Stayz pages for advice, also frustrating."

"Greeted on our arrival by the lovely hosts Rebecca and Shaun. Rooms were amassing. We were in the Belvedere Room - it was presented beautifully! Spacious, lovely view out to the bay, luxurious touches, fantastic shower, comfortable bed and delicious hot breakfast prepared for us. Walking distance to restaurants, penguins and shops. Couldn't fault it. Highly recommend"
