9 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2026
The location was perfect a 2 minute walk from Waverley train station. The room was spacious and clean with a good bathroom and shower. The bed was very comfortable and a good size.Breakfast was first class as was the service. We also had afternoon tea in the hotel which was delicious. The bar area was also very good.
A small thing, there needs to be a couple of clothes hooks when you come out of the shower to hang your clothes and/or towel on . There are hooks on the back of the door which are too far away.

The location is excellent.
The room entrance needed better cleaning and maintenance. Smells bad and have a big stain, inside the windows didn’t close properly.
