Nice little get away in Hamilton
The best thing about this hotel is its location...right in the thick of it within Hamilton's CBD. It's so close to the restaurants, casino, museum and river. Had a great lunch down by the river at Madam Woos. Yes, the hotel is a past its prime but the rooms are spacious and ours was clean. The price also was great compared to other hotels in the vicinity. There is no parking at the hotel when we were there, so we parked on the street, a Wilson's carpark facility is nearby for those who would prefer a more secure parking option.

kevin, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Cheap and spacious
Lots of space. Good price. One of the bed mattresses was really bad, fully indented in the middle and really needed replacing, however the main bed was comfy enough, and the pillows were nice. Carpet was worn through but didn’t bother us at all. Great location close to the casino.

Troy, 1-night trip

Paul, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

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.

Was ok
Laurent, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The size of the room was very spacious and great for a family of 4. The location is very central and close to all amenities. Great nostalgia and character. Spa bath and shower worked well. Could have done with a little more cutlery but overall good value for money.
