In the center of town, with easy access to waterfront, and central to everything in the city. Clean rooms, good breakfast, and helpful staff.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The cleanliness was top-notch, with a spotless room that was a reasonable size for myself and three other guests. The hotel facilities were excellent, and I especially appreciated the direct access to Lambton Quay via a hotel lift, making it incredibly convenient to explore the city. The location of the hotel was also a major plus, with easy access from the motorway if you're driving to or from this city. The staff were friendly and attentive, providing excellent service throughout my stay.
