Lovely old style boutique hotel right in the kings park end of town. Rooms are large and nicely decorated and the staff were friendly.
But the hotel had some real disappointments for us.
1) Not one but twice out of our four nights stay they completely forgot our breakfast order... while they were very quick to charge us extra for our flat white coffee and juice. This left us doubly annoyed, firstly that after paying so much for a room they were so miserly as to not provide a decent coffee, and second that they happily charged us for four breakfasts we never received. Unnecessarily mean spirited and left a bad taste.
2) While the rooms and bathrooms are large and beautifully laid out, the soaps and shampoos are way way below the standard of the rooms, again leaving a feeling of being mean spirited.
3) Instead of the international standard of two thin and two thick pillows, we got just two extra large, long and extra thick pillows which were extremely uncomfortable. Why??
4) when I searched for the room, I searched for room with bath and coffee machine, as I really like a bath while on holidays and see a good coffee as an essential start to the day. The bath was great, but their definition of a coffee machine appears to be an electric kettle and instant coffee! Which simply does not pass the muster these days!
Crap coffee is the surest pathway to crap reviews!
Would I come back... probably not, sadly, because I liked the location and the rooms
