A historic hotel, amazingly & tastefully renovated. In the centre, a few steps from the bus & coach stop (for those not coming by car), within a walkable distance to a stunning beach and coastal lookouts. All members of the staff we met during our short stay were helpful, pleasant and professional, even those working 12 hrs shift - no weariness was shown in their interactions with guests. The manager waited for us to arrive very late, another staff member made sure we had something to eat on our early morning trip back home, as we missed on the continental breakfast. A range of ages & backgrounds are employed by the hotel, but each staff member provides equally exemplary customer service, making it quite an efficient hospitality industry team. We had a lovely stone baked vegetarian pizza & beer as a takeaway lunch and dinner at the restaurant, a local fish for seafood lovers, quinoa & veggies for vegans. The breakfast room is a delight to start morning at, including comfortable plush chairs, chandeliers, paintings, period features, high ceilings with ornate metal tiles, a lovely china, it also doubles as a restaurant for dinner. Our room was comfortable and spacious, with all the inclusions needed for a memorable stay. Suggestions: to fix the lock on the balcony door for added security, to provide slippers to the existing bathrobe, and to adjust a step leading to the toilet to prevent tripping over. We plan a dolphin&whale watching, staying at this hotel.

We have travelled around Australia and New Zealand and this is one of the best, if not the best hotels we have ever stayed at. The room we stayed in was the Bryley, which is exquisitely presented, the decor of the entire hotel is beautiful and then there's the staff......welcoming, friendly, attentive and simply fantastic! Great price, great location.....posting this review is probably to our own detriment, because next time we want to stay, it'll probably be booked out!

Excellent property. Very clean and stylish. Very generous with bathroom amenities and comfort details. Coffee machine, teas, shaving kits. Tasteful renovation etc. If I were to make any notes, perhaps a slightly better breakfast should be provided but really, no complaints at all particularly when compared to where we are staying tonight for similar cost and other places we have been. I recommend this hotel really without reservation.
