Our hotel room was lovely, but overall the value for money was hideous. Everything at the hotel was a total ripoff. I tried to buy a bottle of wine from the bottle shop- they had only Chardonnay, I wanted Sauvignon blanc. I questioned that surely he can grab a bottle from one of the bars and sell it to me at bottle shop prices as a guest. No - I had to pay $65 through room service. The included breakfast is only toast and cereal. On day 1 there was only raspberry jam to put on your toast. On day 2 I ordered a side of scrambled eggs for my 7 yr old daughter but was told I couldn’t order just a side, I had to pay $15 for scrambled eggs that came with tomato and whole grain sourdough - and she eats neither of those things. I paid $60 for 2 children to eat a few mouthfuls of eggs and bacon and hash brown. My dad got terrible food poisoning from the fish pie on the first night too.

Staff are incredibly helpful. Waterfront views are beautiful and it’s convenient for visiting family as they live on base at HMAS WATSON

A beautiful boutique hotel away from the busyness of the city. The stunning east is gorgeous for a staycation with the family while still feeling like a mini break. From the cleaners who were so kind and gentle with my children’s toys to the reception staff - a big thank you for making our second stay here even more wonderful than the first. A special call out to Sophia who made the stress of leaving a bag behind so much easier - you are a special soul - so much gratitude for you. Well done team!

The rooms are decorated beautifully, beds are comfortable and the proximity to the waterfront, transport, restaurants and bars is unbeatable. The front desk staff (especially Emma) are all wonderful - friendly and so helpful. They gave us fantastic tips on where to eat, swim, access transport, walk and shops . The loft rooms are perfect for a family of 4 and our stay overall was exceptional.

Our sons wedding reception was held here so we decided to stay the night before the wedding and the night of the wedding. Many guests also stayed and it was lovely to gather together over breakfast the day after the wedding. The rooms were ideal for a family and very spacious for getting ready.
