A beautiful historic building renovated to a modern hotel. Great location walking distance to shops, restaurants, pubs, The Rooms and Signal Hill (if you are ambitious). Tue complimentary breakfast was a nice surprise. Our room was clean, spacious and comfortable and we loved the heated towel rack!!! Will definitely return.

I love the staff especially Harkirat, for his kindness and generosity who went out of the way to get us bottled water as all groceries were closed after 7 pm. Also I thank Brianna for guiding us for the best dinner we longed for. For sure I will recommend this property

We have stayed at the Murray premises many times before, was always great. Unfortunately this time around there was an early morning power outage in the area.. I had to try and get ready for an appointment with only limited natural light and my phone flashlight.. not the best circumstances. This power outage was not a planned outage and the whole area around the hotel was out.. not a fault of the hotel but a very frustrating time while trying to get ready.
