The Capitol Studio room is up there with one of the best rooms I’ve stayed in. Spacious, comfy bed & quiet. The huge bathroom, including a deep bath, is a bonus too. I’ll definitely be back.

Room layout felt spacious and comfortable.
Limited amenities but a great price for a city hotel in an excellent location. Great soundproofing meant the room was very quiet. Only negative was a periodic drain smell in the bathroom.

A wonderful boutiquey type hotel right in the centre of all the Laneway action. It’s in a great location, near lots of cafés, bars and restaurants, as well as all the touristy things like theatres and markets.
The staff are wonderful, the rooms also (we had a Capitol room which was spacious) and their cafe also great. Definitely recommend and will stay again for sure.
