Lobby, bar & restaurant well presented however rooms very dated and not worth the $450-$500 per night rate card paid. Rooms in need for a desperate renovation. Well off being anywhere near comparative to other QT properties.

I enjoyed the breakfast, and little touches like Dyson hairdryer, handy ice bag given to us at the bar to cool our drinks in the room. Bed was really comfy and no noise from the building / excavation work opposite .
