8.8/10 Excellent! (1,613 reviews)
Great location in downtown close to Lambton quay with shopping and restaurants aplenty.
Parking available at a fee which is handy and also convenient being along the side of the hotel.
Our room was a 1 bedroom with separate lounge/kitchenette so space was comfortable as were the beds.
Bathroom is tight however with very small shower cubicle only so if you are above average size you will struggle.
Overall great stay so would recommend.
