This a guesthouse in a new/old style, with oodles of charm. We were left to our own devices to explore the grand old building and surrounds, and there is work to be done to bring her back, but the public spaces and rooms are well maintained and lovely to be in. If you like deluxe hotels this is not the place, but the games room with its well stocked board games, consoles and futsal and air hockey were LOVED by my kids and I loved the age and patina of the building. So close to the Basin too - bring your swimming costume for Australia's most beautifully set public pool. The kitchenette was perfect for us.
