Rooms are great and spacious but a little dark that can’t be helped with all the other high rise buildings around. Cider bar on site was amazing with great cocktails. Staff during check in were very friendly and welcoming.

It was a wonderful experience staying at this hotel. The staff were excellent and attentive to my needs. The only negatives are for some reason the window of my room was opened on my arrival and some of the towels are not as clean as I would like them to be. Despite this, I will still recommend this hotel for as convivence of location and excellent staffs.

After staying in countless hotels over the years, this is by far one of the most disappointing experiences I’ve had. To start with, no bottled water was provided in the room — something I’ve never encountered in any hotel before, regardless of star rating. The soundproofing was virtually nonexistent; I was kept awake throughout the night by constant noise from outside and other rooms. The air conditioning unit was loud, inefficient, and barely functional, making the room uncomfortable. On top of that, the windows were poorly sealed, allowing in drafts and more noise. Overall, it was an incredibly unpleasant stay, and I will absolutely never return. I do not recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a comfortable and restful experience.

I love the blackout blinds they have here. Brilliant when travelling across time zones and getting a good long sleep when the sun is shining. Beware, this is a very tricky part of the city to try and park and it's very expensive. The hotel does offer a valet service for a charge, but if possible, you'll want to Uber or take the train. Hotel is only a block from Museum train station, so very easy to get to by rail.

Great location and only a short walk from Museum train station. Booked one room with 2xdouble bed was a great value for money. The reception staff was friendly and free drinks on arrival was much appreciated.

Good location, convenient.

Everything went well. Good service, organised early check in. Good value and location. Only stayed one night but was good for what we needed. Room quite small and a balcony would have been nice but was fine for one night.

Arrived early and asked if any chance of early access to room. Told room was ready but would have to pay $50 extra to check in early or $30 in an hours time. Declined. Went to check bags in to be held at concierge who then delivered them straight to room. Haven’t been charged for early check in before. Room was cleaned next day while we were out but they did not take away dirty cups and glasses and provide clean ones. One lift not working so long wait each day. Location was excellent, very close to Town Hall.
