Great room, great location, and friendly staff

The suite was very nice with a balcony overlooking Spencer Street. Very convenient location, just a short walk to train station, Exhibition Center, many restaurants, etc. It's an older building so it's a bit quirky, but we'd definitely stay there again. Very satisfied customers!

The old hotel is awesome, I had a great room situated on the corner of the building. The staff were very friendly and helpful and made me feel welcome as soon as I walked in. The hand written note and chocolates on the table when I entered the room was a lovely surprise. I would definitely stay here again.
