Love The Lucky Hotel

Love Lucky Hotel. The beds are so soft and we love the renovations have kept the history of the building alive and included them as a feature. Such a short walk to everything and definitely value for money. All the staff are amazing and so accommodating. We particularly love the Superior rooms. Highly recommend

Perfectly located for a weekend visit. Hotel is located in the entertainment zone so there is some weekend noise, but wasn’t that noticeable in the room. Room had all we needed, a little on the small side but the balcony was a nice little extra
