Staff were great. room size was good. Noise was very bad with little to no noise insulation between the room and very large very loud bar which kept going to 3am on Friday and Saturday nights. Sunday had a wedding with live band running to midnight and Monday had nearby building works. If the owners could improve noise issues the Hotel would be great. As is we are unlikely to stay there again

Great looking room.

Nicely furnished room with an excellent mini bar and sound system. Quite noisy as rooms are not sound proofed. Problematic hot water as takes about 3 mins to get hot and not much pressure. Nice bathtub but took too long to fill so could not use it. Mattress was a bit past its prime and the flashing smoke alarm was mounted directly above the bed so was annoying while trying to sleep. Woke at 7am on Saturday morning to the sound of a jackhammer in the laneway...but this was not the hotel's fault apart from the non soundproofed windows.

Unusual and interesting boutique vibes, liked the Palmer and Co bar and Kid Kyoto restaurant being basically next door. Some street noise audible on a Saturday night but earplugs provided if you need them. Endearingly oddball selection of free movies on the telly.
