The staff were amazing — super helpful, welcoming, and incredibly accommodating throughout our stay. The location is perfect, so close to everything, and having the light rail just outside made it really easy to get around. Highly recommend!

Great location, just a short walk north of the central train station and steps from the light rail (trams) that will take you to Circular Key. Still walkable to Circular Key and buses to anywhere you might want to go. Lots of good restaurants and shopping nearby. Hotel is quiet and clean, rooms are small but have everything you need (including a coffee machine and separate kettle with a range of teas provided and refreshed during our two night stay). Bed was comfortable. I would happily stay here again.

Excellent service at reception, friendly and very accommodating. The room was clean but perhaps needed a little bit more attention on the vacuuming but I am being picky. One of the bath towels had a stain mark as well. Will stay here again, convenient location to Central Station and Haymarket with LR stop in front.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The staff was helpful, but the cleanliness is so bad. The mugs cannot be used without washing first as they all have tea stains in them. The duvet has a large stain. There was a paper tag on the floor in the corner of the room when we checked in, and it was still there when we checked out. The coffee machine and the bathroom mirror were covered with dust. Good that the towels are clean.
