Pretty basic and dated. Staff very welcoming and quick check-in was great though. Served it's purpose, but only enough hot water for one shower, so be the person that gets in the shower first!! Basic no frills accommodation in the CBD.

The property was clean enough, but looked like it needs a refresh. There is limited on site parking which was difficult to get in and out of. But the strangest thing was they lock the doors to the parking at 10 pm and do not open them until 7 am.

Good location but poor parking opportunities. Lots of dining options in the local area. Bed was quite soft. Reasonable accommodation for what you pay.

4 nights at the VR Hotel Hamilton
My bed was made with a pillow inside, my toilet roll holder fell off twice, my toilet chain inside the tank came loose once, I had to duck to shower under the low shower rose, the list goes on, it’s a spacious hotel in a great location but it needs a boost.
