Centrally located so walkable to many dining options and central city. Modern building but showing signs of wear. The fridge in our room did not work. The staff offered to move us to another room, but as we were only staying 1 night, we decided against it.

Really enjoyed the stay at the hotel. Very clean and quiet. Breakfast was very good. Fortunately there was free parking behind the hotel…but spaces are limited.

Kate

Liked: Cleanliness
This hotel was very basic and relatively comfortable but I cannot believe how much I paid for it. It was worth about half the cost. I was only there overnight, so it suited my needs. However, when I asked the desk clerk about tours in the area and then again about the train schedule, she unhelpfully referred me to the internet. Don't expect much.

Best bet in Hamilton

Best place to stay in central Hamilton, although the building is starting to look a bit dated and will be ready for a fresh-up soon
