Super central. Clean room. Comfy bed. Our room had a window to the internal courtyard and the curtain was a bit too short of the window width. So the light beamed in until late late when the bar closed. Would choose a room on other side of hallway if possible. Or wear an eye mask.

Sadly the stay did not start off well being notified that the air conditioning was not working properly. This was the last time we were disappointed the amazing staff were honest and up front, they let us check out the room and make sure it wasn’t going to be too hot for our stay. They also offered complimentary drinks and a meal for the inconvenience which only made the stay even more awesome. The hotel is lovely, great location and close to every thing you need to experience Newcastle at its best.

Hot box rooms

Room was completely fine but the central heating unit was broken and the room was an absolute sauna. A small portable air con was in the room but it was beyond useless. When I got help to see if anything can be done, I was advised that the hotel was fully booked and unfortunately nothing could be changed. Understanding this was the case, I was told that the hotel would contact me first thing the morning after to discuss remuneration in some capacity but as you can tell from this review, I am still yet to hear anything from them. While I understood not much could be done about changing rooms given the full hotel, the lack of communication afterwards has turned me off here moving forward. Lucky no more.

Hotel has a fabulous vibe! Rooms are well equipped and very comfortable . Take the lift down to a great bar and restaurant! Awesome cocktails.
Not our first stay and won’t be the last!

Stayed in a queen beed room. Great for solo visit, not suitable for couples unless you've just been married.

This is an interesting hotel. Has a great bar and the restaurant pub food is excellent. It has new bathrooms; is opposite the tram stop. It is refreshingly old compared to a sterile modern hotel but may not be everyones cup of tea. I.e. no wardrobes, ironing board etc.

I wasn't sure about how quiet the room would be given this is pub accommodation and from previous experience, however, I was pleasantly surprised. Although the music was incredibly loud and you could hear in the halls of the accommodation, the room was well insulated from the noise with minimal sound of music coming in.
The air conditioning worked well, however, the only downside for me if not being able to access fresh air.
All in all, it was great accommodation in a great location, would definitely stay here again.

Live music was really good and finishes by 10:30 so you can still get a good sleep in a comfortable bed. Staff were also really friendly.

Whilst competitive with local pubs it’s still too expensive for a simple room

The property is an old hotel which has been redone quite nicely, over a busy pub. The room was small but nice, with a balcony overlooking a busy street. There was internal painting going on during our stay, which left quite a strong smell in the hallways. We were a bit surprised not to be warned of this when we checked in. Also surprised with the $10 charge to store bags. Otherwise a pleasant stay.
