    Onsite parking was available. Charges of $35 per night is very steep. (Although I was lucky and picked up a pre booking deal of $20 per night. Still very pricey!) Credit Card charges were also a surprise.

    This location was fabulous! Little National Hotel Newcastle was newly opened when we stayed. Our 1 bedroom studio apartment was awesome. Electronic/computerized lighting, blinds, and curtains. The bed was amazingly comfortable!

    The only negative is that i think the TV was a little too close/too bright but i can easily overlook that as everything else was perfect.

    The bed was absolutely hands down one of the best i have ever stayed in (and i travel alot for work)

    Parking is too costly. $20 is what most places charge. TV had poor connection and they encouraged you to connect to your device 😢

    Very nice public places. Nice gym.. more complete experience. It has everything to make you comfortable. The library is an amazing area to work.

    The Entrance into the hotel had a lovely smell, it gave a very relaxing feeling. The rooms were funky/small, but enough for short stays, fantastic location to Honeysuckle and the Esplanade.

    I thought this Hotel room was so well set out, a great way to utilise space but also included all the little niceties of an expensive Hotel. They thought of everything for your comfort and cosiness. The bed was comfy the pillows great, coffee making facilities great, good strong shower, modern and clean. The room became so dark when you pulled the blind! The staff were exceptional, car parking simple. Close to restaurants.

    The parking being paid - I somehow missed that in the information.

    Love the fresh new feel, I also like not paying for floor space I don’t need. The lighting options were fun. The staff were friendly and helpful.

    We did room a king room but a standard one which required that I climb over my husband to get out of bed. This said- the bed is huge and it was not a bug issue but I would get a different room next time. The ambient lighting is an issue for applying makeup and possibly for those who work in their room. Not a deal breaker.

    It has that new minimalist style, including the environmental footprint stuff; encouragement of thoughtful room servicing, ambient room lighting. No wasted space in the room but enough space for what you need for a short stay. The hotel has a young, vibrant feel - all staff are friendly and welcoming. We ate breakfast in the lounge and happy we did. Having eaten breakfast at a local cafe the previous day, we wished we had simply “eaten in”. We sat and watched the movement of people and harbour while eating yoghurt and berry bowl, muesli and toast, with tea. This is a VERY nee establishment so it’s all sparkling and fresh. My husband used the gym. Car parking 👍

    Not a single things comes to mind. I loved it all!

    The beds in Little National hotels are second to none, and it's such a treat to lie in bed and watch a show on TV after a big day of travel. The staff were wonderful and helpful. I was pleasantly surprised by the breadth of food offerings in the lounge and the quality was great.

    Taking away some of the customer service experience with computer check in. Fun to use but makes three staff standing at a desk redundant... Probably could minimise the tech there to boost your face to face points with me. Might be the way of the future but it's something I enjoy at a hotel. Service. Itchy robes

    Room is so well designed and the bed was HUGE. It was like melting into a big marshmallow and the tv at the foot of the bed was positively decadent. I spent a whole day in the Library working - it’s incredibly well set up with different options for lounging, booths for phone calls and private desks - bonus points for the free tea and coffee! I want to move in.

    When we arrived the signage from the car park was poor. We entered the fire escape and got stuck in there (locked) until we rang reception who were helpful. There was lots of dust and grime under the bed and lounge.

    The staff were excellent! Friendly, helpful.

    Only gripe I can point out is abit more clarification on what is on the house in the mini bar and what is not would be great. Other than that the hotel is excellent.

    Incredibly modern, clean, luxurious and spacious. Perfect location close to the main cbd and points of interest within Newcastle. My stay was superb and my girlfriend agreed she loved it.

    The walk down stairs from carpark to reception with luggage is inconvenient. Easy enough with a small bag but would be bad with more bags. Most hotels have a lift as a bare minimum. The lighting is pretty but makes getting ready in the morning a bit annoying - is a bit dark in the room, even with all the lights on and curtain/blind open. The TV was useless as it wouldn’t connect/stream from my phone or laptop, so there was only free to air channels which is a bit subpar considering it’s 2024 and nothing good can be watched without Netflix at least.

    Clean and tidy. Great facilities. Modern and comfortable. Bed was great and pillows are comfy. They will bring your Uber eats order to your room for you which is exceptional.
