Very clean stylish apartment with everything you need including location right on Darby street with a multitude of restaurants and cafes at your doorstep. Harris Farms down the road for all your supplies if you feel like cooking. Room had a view over Darby street and security at night for access. I would definitely recommend a stay here

Apartment was centrally located situated amongst many wining and dining establishments.
The small gym was surprisingly well equipped.
Our room facing onto Darby St with an enclosed balcony was very dark. Sound proofing adequate.

Walls and tiles in balcony area black. Inside the apartment the carpet almost black and black tiles in the kitchen. Although this helps with disguising wear and tear it was a bit depressing. The furnishings were of good quality.
The shower not only requires you to step up and into a spa bath base but it was also black tiled as well. In order to turn the shower on you need to flatten yourself against the fixtures wall in order not to get the first steam of cold water. Impossible to reach taps without being in the spa bath base.

Cooks Hill is a beautiful location a short walk to the city and unlimited pubs, restaurants, and cafes right at our doorstep. The accommodation is clean, new and all the facilities you need. The rooms are quiet, almost sound proof and if you like a sleep in you can close off the light totally. All the facilities you need with a kitchenette. Definitely the location is the biggest plus. Newcastle is the coolest and most underrated city in Aust.

Location in the center of Newcastle, close to restaurants and facilities. Parking was very good and safe, but was an additional cost.
Staff were friendly and helpful, gym was good.
Room size was large and thet kitchen and dining area were very good. Bedroom was large and bed comfortable, a mirror in the bedroom would have been good.
We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend.

The hotel is situated in a great spot, and despite being on the busy Darby Street, the rooms are quiet. Thew rooms are clean, the bed is comfortable, and the kitchen and bathroom supplies make it possible to eat in if desirable.

A negative was that I did not know that I would need to pay an extra amount for secure parking beneath the hotel.

Excellent location, well equipped kitchen, kitchen, bedroom and living area clean and spacious. Helpful, friendly staff. As we didn’t have a car we arrived at the front of the hotel and found we needed to carry our luggage up stairs where there was a lift to the next floor. We were unaware that we had to negotiate stairs to our room. We are both in our 70s, could do it now but in the near future maybe not. A studio apartment that we saw did not have this problem but was a lot smaller.
Definitely stay here again.

We had the one bedroom apartment which is absolutely huge. It has two outdoor seating areas on opposite sides of the unit. Access to your unit, the building, and the garage are all a single code to remember. The elevator is quick, though there are only 3 levels (garage, lobby, rooms). The one bedroom apartments are strange in that you have to enter the code at two different entry doors before heading up a staircase to reach your living space. The rewards of the living space more than offset the quirkiness of getting to it.

The apartment we were originally given had a staircase we didn’t want to climb, as we are both in our eighties. Staff quickly arranged another one for us without any bother. Although a bit noisy, as on the street side, we loved the apartment. It is next door to the gym, but no one used it while we were there. Suppose it might be noisy during the week.

Location was perfect. We walked everywhere. 13 minutes to a wonderful restaurant for dinner (Jana), with a lovely walk back along the river. 160 metres to a great cafe for breakfast (Autumn Rooms). There are so many great places to eat very close by.

Nice friendly staff.

Nice room. Some wear and tear like on the lounge and a little bit of dirt in places. Broken dishwasher. No sharp knives if you arrive when staff aren’t there. Room had shower/spa where you could not turn on water without being in shower - expect rush of cold water while standing on a step. Rangehood blocked on purpose. Sort of like a room with a display kitchen you aren’t really supposed to use. Staff did not reply to some queries at all.

The connecting room to our studio apartment had no sound proof at all so unfortunately had to listen to a group of people partying in the middle of the night like I was in the same room as them. I wanted to leave and go home. I have stayed a number of times over the past 15 years but won’t be returning

Terrible Check in Process

Check in process was terrible. Reception was closed when we arrived - closed at 5pm. Placed on hold when trying to check in my phone. Required to upload licence and credit card information despite the fact that the room was already paid for. Codes did not work to access the building. Took mulitple phone calls. A passweby on the street noticed out dilemma and reinforced taht others had expressed concern regarding this process. Took over an hour. Room itself was OK but the check saga spoiled our stay.

Good location

The location and condition of the property were very good. Unfortunately, we found our bed quite soft, meaning we didn’t sleep very well. Certainly not the fault of the staff, but someone had been smoking - maybe in the next room. The smell was very strong. I'm not sure if there was also a dog next door, but it was barking intermittently from early morning till we left at 9.30.

Definitely not what I was expecting at all-and not like any other hotel room. And I would not recommend it. It has no windows into the main room. The bathroom has a window, which has a frosted glass that shines into the room (whether you like it or not) and there is a patio that has shutters that open and close, but with no screen and the patio, that table, the shutters were covered with bird poop, so we couldn’t go out there. The bedside table was stained. Overall, it was just gross. For this price, there are much better options, I fell for other reviews, and I lost out. Don’t make this mistake.
