The hotel is conveniently located, close to the hot pools and restaurants. The rooms are a bit dated but clean, and it would be nice to have Air Con or a heat pump to cool the room. The service was friendly and helpful, although the restaurant was unavailable due to the national party conference. The location is excellent, full of local history and right across the road from the hot pools. The dining experience was average, with room for improvement in the breakfast selection. Overall, a decent stay with some room for upgrades.
