Livingston Holidays from AU$2,615

Friendly, helpful staff. Great location within walking distance of shops, train station and attractions. Very clean, has all the necessities. 10/10!

The price point is high for the room we had, which did not look anything like what was advertised. If you like being in the center of the tourist stuff, this is a good location, but there are other hotels close enough that are less expensive. Lovely building in the front (Grand Cafe), but that seems to be a facade. I checked the date of the last renovation and it was a long time ago, hence the impression that the place is just tired. And breakfast is not included.

Great area for people watching. Small grocery store next door was great! Beds were awful. Shower had something resembling mold. Shower floor caving in. Water didn’t drain completely and always felt like we would fall through at any moment. Bus stop at the front door, although convenient, always had to fight a crowd to get in or out the door. The stairs to the room were crazy. 49 stairs with huge suitcases was just too much. This would be a great little place for a night or two. I spent 10 nights and it was just too long to go without sleep because of the beds. I cannot stress enough how bad the beds were. And the lack of clean linens and towels was unacceptable.

The hotel was clean and the staff friendly but the area was very run down. It was close to Royal mile and easy to walk to all attractions.
