Guest reviews for VR Hamilton

2 out of 5

Unique = old. Didnt like = dirty window sills. Dirty bathroom (edges). No spare plugs around the room. The lift smells really bad. We wanted to check in 1hr early but were told it was an extra $45. Then when we got there at 3pm there were 3 people in front of us checking in and it took over 25mins until our turn to check in. Parkingnis not free with your stay. Check in is late and checknout is early. Akld 4star hotels are very, very different with much more to offer for your money and cheaper nights. $99 to stay at skycity with car park, earlier check in, later check out......

The property is handy to the centre of town, comfortable and clean, friendly staff. All amenities great and we can usually get a reasonable price. We use this hotel whenever we visit Hamilton. Only concern is having to pay for car parking.

I liked how it was close to Hamilton centre and how easy it was to get back to the hotel. Room wasn’t as big as I thought it was going to be. Didn’t like the fact that to park the car in the hotel car park it was an extra cost of $20.
