The rooms were very spacious, clean, and well stocked. Check-in was a bit confusing but nothing too hard - just have to go to the gaming room to get my keys. The reason I'm giving a middle review of because the room I stayed in - Room 10 - was incredibly loud at night as it sits above the gambling / game room. There appears to be no soundproofing between the floors. So if you need to go to bed early, this is not the room for you as I believe the gaming room remains open until the early hours. I would have added another star but I've seen others complain about this as well. If I was in another room, it would have been better. My advice: when booking, as for another room besides room 10

The hotel accommodation is excellent, large room and ensuite. Clean and totally adequate. But the establishment is well overdue for repair outside the rooms as it is very old. Music played one night very loud until 1.30am close to us downstairs which was very annoying.

Very spacious room with spa, good amenities, but parking entrance was little difficult to find even though I received instructions. I wanted to ask the reception to keep the room key while two of us were doing different things and might be back at a different time, but the receptionist told me that they couldn’t..

Recently renovated rooms were a fun surprise, given the hotel itself had old original exterior & interior (which is also lovely). Great location right on the round about, so close for meandering to shops, cafes, park/playground if you're travelling with kids. Great hotel rates for what's on offer

The room was good and check in friendly and helpful. A couple of draw backs, the noise from bands playing until late was annoying and the balcony was more of a shared verandah and not separated from the adjoining room, as they were smokers we couldn’t sit outside without breathing their smoke. Also there was only one table and 2 chairs and an old bench seat for the two rooms.
