The hotel exudes old-world charm with beautiful, antique furniture and cozy fireplaces in the rooms. However, the experience was slightly tarnished by the presence of dirty, stained carpets. The service was top-notch, offering room service and assistance with tours and tickets. The location in a quiet residential area provides a peaceful retreat but remains easily accessible to the harbor. The dining experience, while including Italian products, lacked fresh fruit and only offered a limited amount for consumption at 8:30 am.

The hotel exudes an old-world charm with rooms featuring a jacuzzi and a view of the garden, but the stained carpet is a drawback. The service was impeccable with swift room service and helpful tours/ticket assistance. Situated in a serene residential area, the location offers easy access to all of Victoria's attractions. The dining experience was satisfactory, albeit with room for improvement in providing more fresh fruit. Overall, the facilities were decent, making it a comfortable stay.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The rooms were beautifully decorated with old furniture and had a wonderful view of the garden. The jacuzzi in the room was a fantastic touch, but I must admit the carpet was a bit dirty and stained. The service was impeccable, with room service available and helpful tours/ticket assistance. The location, nestled in a quiet residential area, was serene and peaceful, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The dining experience was decent, although I wished there were more fresh fruit options. Overall, a great value for the money with lovely facilities to enjoy.

Staying at this hotel was like stepping into a charming old-world oasis with beautiful garden views and a cozy fireplace in the room. The experience was delightful overall, but the dining fell a bit short on the expected fresh fruit offerings. The service was top-notch, and the quiet residential location added an extra touch of tranquility to the stay.

The hotel has a charming old-world vibe with beautiful old furniture and fireplaces, offering a serene view of the garden. The service was impeccable with room service and helpful tour/ticket assistance available. The location, situated in a quiet residential area close to tourist highlights, adds to its appeal. However, the dining experience could have been improved by providing more fresh fruit for breakfast. Despite this, the hotel provides great value for money.

The hotel is nestled in a quiet residential area, showcasing beautiful old furniture in the rooms with jacuzzi amenities, and a stain on the carpet being the main downside. The service was impeccable, offering room service and tours/ticket assistance. The tranquil and convenient location makes it easily accessible to everything in Victoria. While the dining offerings included could have been more generous, the on-site barbecue stood out. Overall, the hotel offers a comfortable stay with a touch of charm.
