Great location, charming rooms perfect for my overnight stay
Pros:

Large room, very neat and clean with gorgeous bathroom. I found the bed quite comfortable. Kettle, small fridge and coffee making supplies appreciated. I was travelling for work and the location was perfect. Great coffee shops nearby and places to eat. Room service is available but I didn't use it personally. Oh, and the complimentary tim tams were a nice treat after a big day!

Cons:

The stairs are a lot but I probably needed the exercise! Some rooms you can hear the noise from below in the bar, but that is to be expected. Doesn't take much for me to block it out but if it bothers you you could bring ear plugs.

Beautiful historic pub close to food and attractions
Pros:

This is the second time I have stayed at the Glenferrie Hotel. It is a beautifully maintained old pub with a lot of charm. The staff are friendly and helpful. The room is large and spacious, the bed comfortable. I loved the sweet touch of Tim Tams on the pillows. The Hotel is a close walk to shops and restaurants and has a lovely cafe next door for breakfast. The hotel is close to public transport with the Glenferrie train station a short walk away.

Cons:

Not a criticism but be aware the rooms are accessed by stairs- there is no lift.

For me it was perfect. I would stay again.
Pros:

Very good value for money. Very clean and an ideal location for what I wanted.

Cons:

The hotel food was standard.
The stairs would be difficult for some people with luggage. They would also struggle with the shower over the spa bath.
