Everything was lovely at this hotel. Staff were excellent and because it is a new building, everything was fresh and clean.
There are some restaurants in walking distance, many more only a short drive away. It is a good central spot for visiting Hamilton.

This is a beautiful hotel! Shower was to awesome, Dove shampoo products supplied. Free breakfast each morning (pancakes, eggs, sausage, toast, yogurt) and so much more. Microwave and small fridge included in room. Parking underground or above. Staff extremely friendly. Can't wait to stay again!

Clean, staff was courteous, comfortable
Parking ramp to lower level requires concave mirror. Dangerous when you can't see the car from other direction.
