A lovely location with views across the waterfront. Not too busy or overcrowded with people. Appreciated that the buildings were low rise and fitted into the landscape. Pleasant walking along the waterfront of Soldiers Point. Room was as advertised, clean and well presented.

Bannisters midweek break
Bannisters was a midweek break away from the kids. Pool area lovely and staff great. Rooms are comfortable but missing a dee key features such as a full length mirror. Our room opened onto a shared balcony which took a it of getting used to. Hotel also took money from our card without our approval. Breakfast was lovely and the continental was perfectly fine - no need for full cooked breakfast. Not sure we’ll stay again but it was good for a break away.

Lovely stay. Dining options were great. Both the cheeky dog and Julio’s. Couple of things that could improve, we had an upstairs room with an ocean view and balcony, however the balcony was shared with two other rooms.also you can get take away alcohol and food from the pub. Not well advertised. Staff were quite friendly. Champagne on arrival was a nice touch.

I don’t give reviews often, except to warn people of the bad ones . Bannisters is the exception! a must for work or leisure. I have stay at here on 6 different occasions for work and a family weekend getaway. I travel all over Australia for work and stay at many hotels which advertise accommodation as 4/5 star. Bannisters is one of very few that that I would say meet this. The wonderful staff, many options for food, rooms are tidy clean and the bed wow!!! comfy wouldn’t giving it justice. The rooms are stylish and have a fantastic outlook. Looking forward to my next stay

Beautiful room. Bed was not so comfortable There’s noise until midnight from the pub downstairs I paid premium for an uninterrupted views, but the view is partial. I wanted to surprise and spoil my husband for a very special occasion following a difficult time in his life, and I feel like I overpaid .

Lovely spot in Soldiers point for our local weekend away. The property is well maintained. Julio’s and the pool/bar are a great spot to hang out and spend some time in the sun reading a book or having drink.

Enjoyable Stay
Beautiful place to stay. Room was clean. Bed was comfy. Staff were very welcoming. Will definitely stay again. The restaurant was a bit pricey & the breakfast that came with the room was only cold food. If you wanted anything hot you had to pay. Other than that it was a very pleasant stay.

Average standard. Not as secluded as we thought. Over-rated. We left an Apple phone charger in the room, but it never went to lost & found. We never got it back!
