Ease of parking. Pleasant friendly helpful staff. Lovely reception and bar area. Very clean room. Room needs a larger tv. and a couch - there was plenty of space for a couch. Fantastic value for what I paid. Will definitely stay again !

Paid for a room in a hotel with a restaurant, a pool and a gym. None of these facilities were operational. My room was non refundable, and i didnt find out this info until it was too late to find somewhere that did. Was informed that it was only because i booked through wotif that i wasnt aware, as these facilities were listed as non operational on their own website, but not on wotif. Was offered a bottle of wine ($8 wholesale) to compensate for the lack of facilities. Only after i made a complaint. I had driven a long way, and was too tired to argue, but really dont feel like i was appropriatly compensated, nor was the porblem rectified in any significant way. Will not be staying here again.

An iconic hotel which clearly has a lot of heritage. The decor is outdated though and uncomfortable.
