Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is very convenient, spacious, and recently renovated, making it a classy choice for a comfortable stay. Although the rooms could use better ventilation, they are large and cozy, with a touch of both old-style charm and modern amenities. The service was welcoming and accommodating, even going the extra mile to ensure a peaceful room change. The location is excellent for exploring the area, especially for winery visits and brewery tours, though some might find the ambiance a bit dim or prefer a more modern setting. Dining options varied, with some hits and misses, but overall enjoyable. The hotel offers excellent facilities, making it a great choice for a well-rounded stay.
This hotel is a gem! It's right up at the top of the building, offering a bit of a workout to carry bags up but the room felt spacious. I highly recommend everything about this hotel, even though it's not as large as expected.
The hotel is centrally located, close to the CBD and within walking distance to various attractions. The rooms are well-equipped and comfortable, but can get warm at night due to the large settee. The service was top-notch, with staff being accommodating and fabulous. The dining options offered a good variety of choices, and the breakfast was excellent. The hotel facilities are well-maintained, making for a pleasant stay overall.
