8/10 Very good

Great central location Lots of restaurants and cafes around Very friendly and helpful staff Very clean rooms Lift to all levels
beverley, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing stay!
Jonathan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

As a fnq local I have stayed here before but not for many years . The hotel is looking good now. The bed was comfortable and the room pristine but the aircon could have been colder as it was still warm in the middle of the day. What annoyed me though was there were no bath mats or teaspoons. Even a plastic one instead of a stick would have been good. But still good value for the location in the middle of town. I will stay there again.

It's in a very convenient location, and I felt that there was no problem if it was just an overnight stay.

Lyn, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location & good breakfast offer. Only one person acknowledging guests on reception but apart from that no issue. Spacious room with good facilities
Rebecca, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

This should be considered a 2 star motel or less. The staff at the front are not helpful. If you need reliable WiFi this is NOT the place to stay. The shower and shower curtain had mildew/mold. I saw a roach in my room and you can hear everyone out in the hallway. The hotel owners have done a poor job on renovating this motel. I would not recommend anyone to stay here. I couldn’t wait for my time to end at this hotel.
Izamar, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Was not allowed to check in due to no physical photo ID (stolen wallet), had photo of ID on phone which was accepted at other hotels. No leniency showed by reception, had to find alternative accommodation at 9pm after long day of travel. Attempted to contact manager for refund without success.
Anthony, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Really liked the charm of the building's exterior as well as the breakfast dinning area.
Benjamin, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Reasonably priced getaway.
Travon, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Bad TV reception. breakfast was very average for continental. cold baked beans .convenient for shops and eateries. Bit dear at $205 a night.rooms big.
Denniss, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We only stayed 1 night, value for money was great & it was close to lots of places to eat & Woolworths was across the road - little bit old / tired but for a short stay would definately recommend, they also did breakfast on the balcony for $10 which was great
Julie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Location, location, location. Late check in handled great. Room only serviced every 4 days is bit poor. But is still "bang for buck".
Warren, 9-night trip

8/10 Very good

Where the hotel certainly needs some TLC it is in a great location , close to so much , bars , restaurants , tour operators , cruise terminal and more . The staff couldn’t be more helpful .
Elaine, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean and easy. Good for. Quick stay. We arrived late and left early. Easy to arrange a taxi to the airport. Bathroom next door was noisy with the shower and plumbing but otherwise fine.
Liora, 1-night trip

Great location, close to everything
ANGIE, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Hides had an exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. You can order the continental breakfast there, or just sit on the veranda, eating your yogurt from woolies. Super walkable area.

Staff very friendly and efficient. Its an old building but rooms have been updated. Lots of space but could do with a couple chairs in the room. Its the first hotel I have stayed at where there is a charge for luggage storage following check out. Its $6 for a locker.
