Great room and staff. Unfortunately the AC was broken which they did let us know before hand and offered us a full refund. Portable AC provided wasn’t really up to the task.

Fabulous place to stay in Newcastle. Clean, quirky, friendly staff, great food, fantastic location. Light rail stop is right outside the hotel, lots of restaurants nearby and Civic Theatre is a 10min walk down the road. We’ve stayed here a few times and love it.

Elegantly cool. A truly lovely stay at this centrally located gem. The room was beautiful, with charming, quirky interiors that gave the hotel so much character. The staff were attentive and welcoming throughout my stay. The bed was extremely comfortable, dressed in luxurious linen, making for a great night’s sleep. The supply of tea, coffee and bottled water was a nice touch. The courtyard bar is stunning and a perfect spot for dining or enjoying a drink. Highly recommended.
