The room was clean and good value for what you pay. The pool was great needed abit of a clean but considering all the storms at this time maybe why it was not at its best. Eventhough the pool was still a beautiful time to spend your arvo in as it was nice and warm. The location of the place is amazing, everything is in walking distance. Highly recommend to stay here.

Herewini, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We stayed one night before running the marathon so stay was short. We were right next to the beer garden so was loud when trying to sleep. Had we been there for another reason it probably wouldn’t have been an issue. Really nice to get a free welcome drink voucher. That was very cool and staff were very friendly and helpful.

Mark, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Comfy one night stay

Check in was messy but got sorted and an extra fee drink in the bar soothed the minor frustration. Staff were friendly. Room was big and comfy. Parking was limited so get in quick and finding the place was odd as it's set back off the road. Bistro meal was very good value though having my main arrive when I'd barely started my entree seemed odd. A busy but vibrant pub - it was Father's Day. Central and near shops and the manager had good advice about things to do.
