Nice cozy hotel.
Pros:

Location and the room facilities

Cons:

When you choose a 5 star hotel with “ breakfast “ you normally expect a buffet breakfast.
Breakfast was so poor and far beyond my expectations. Of course in a bad way :(

Love the blend of heritage and modern. Room was beautifully presented and we loved the iPad tech, controlling the lights, curtains, tv etc. Breakfast was delicious. We loved the central location. Would stay again!

Pros:

A great location that's easily walkable to points of interest and transport. A relatively calmer street for CBD - easy to get a taxi or ride share. It's a comfortable hotel with friendly service and a touch of luxury. Cafe/wine cellar door on ground floor is convenient, cozy and the food and coffee are excellent. I appreciated the warmth of the service there each day of my stay. The front desk staff are friendly and attentive. It's a well designed, unique and lovely hotel in a historic building.

Cons:

No complaints at all.

It was really great, I would and have recommended to a lot of people
Pros:

The breakfast was really good, although I've stayed here before and it was a little better that time. It's situated in a really great spot, really convenient to get to places and all in all a really enjoyable space. The I-pads are a great added extra.

Cons:

I honestly really loved the stay.
