It’s just far enough out of the way to be troublesome if you are wanting to explore all of Hamilton. However, the staff and facilities are top notch if you’re in Hamilton for business or just wanting a private place to stay while visiting family/friends this is perfect

Pleasantly surprised business stay
I booked the hotel on the day of and was pleasantly surprised with the hotel. Friendly service. Clean and modern hotel. If I could suggestion anything, it would be to extend the breakfast period until 10 AM and consider installing an ATM on-site.
