Charged an extra $600 aud on what was suppose to be $200 aud taxes. Room service for cleaning requires a booking a day prior. They will also bug you withna welcome package which is a timeshare where they insult you and treat you dirt if you say no at the end

A really lovely hotel with great decor, lovely rooms, great staff, a very good bar with great beers and first-class food and service. The only issue was we stayed on a Saturday night and there was a nightclub across the road playing loud music until nearly 2am which kept two of us awake. I guess that’s always going to be an issue in a city centre.

Good basic room

The basic room was cute. At first we got put into a room that was a little beat up and the shower was clogged. I called down to the service desk and the gal was super friendly and immediately changed us to another room.
