The hotel was convenient to walk to the port terminal. The hotel room was clean and staff were very friendly. It was very unexpected that the hotel room floor was on a significant slant. Just based on this, I am not sure that I would stay at this property again.

The hotel is in an excellent location equidistant between the bars and shopping centre such as O'Nells, Yates, etc and the bars and restaurants the other end on Oxford Street-that road is very vibrant and well worth a visit.

This is an old hotel so lots of character. There is an ancient lift that can take you up to the upper floors, but it is tiny. The walls are thin and the windows have no sound proofing so you can hear your neighbours as well as the noise from the High Street below. The staff were top notch and super helpful. Can’t say enough about them. The location is excellent and within walking distance to site seeing, shops, restaurants etc. We did have breakfast one morning in the hotel and would definitely not recommend. Expensive and terrible food. Overall we only stayed two nights before going on our cruise so it was doable but I doubt I’d stay here again.

Great location. Close to good dining, shopping and the cruise port. Windows did not open and no air conditioning so the room was a bit warm and stuffy. The bar and reception staff were extremely friendly. I would stay there again.

Good hotel but no AC or elevator

This hotel worked for our short 3 day stay. The staff was great and very friendly. The room was in good shape and as described. I filtered my hotel search to include AC so beware it doesn’t have AC or a working elevator. The front desk and owner told us it was getting fixed the next day after we checked. It was not so FYI. We didn’t take advantage of that in house breakfast. We just went to the bakery across the street. I wound close by saying this is a good hotel not great.
