Old dated hotel! Did not look like a 4 star property that it claimed to be. No swimming pool, stained doors with dated rooms! Needs renovation desperately! The picture we saw showed floor to ceiling windows in the room but the room in reality looked nothing like the pictures they put in their advertisement. Very disappointed also felt like violated as the room did not look like the room we were expecting from the pictures

I was a bit worried as I got a very good deal on the room rate- but the hotel was great. Close to Lambton Quay, modern spacious room, great onsite restaurant and staff were very professional and helpful. The lobby area is a little worn and dated and one of the lifts was broken, but it was fine for the price.
