The staff were really friendly and hospitable. The place is showing its age a little but was very clean and tidy. The rates were okay too. We'd stay there again.

Convenient to Port Arthur
Very convenient to the historic site with direct access. Bedding was comfortable but room a bit dated (some mould around the windows needs attention) and a microwave in the room would be good. The continental breakfast was adequate and the staff were very friendly.

Great location
Perfect location if you’re going to the Port Arthur historic site as you get in by the back gate avoiding any queues.
Rooms were clean though dated and the bathroom was old. Overall it was a great stay and staff were very helpful.
