Art Deco Masonic Hotel

Art Deco Masonic Hotel

8/10 Good
"This was our second stay at the Art Deco Hotel which is as beautiful as ever. A smaller room this time (as booked) meant it was a bit more cramped, though the decor and cleanliness is excellent. We sat out on the shared patio with a glass of wine and watched evening fall. Unfortunately the room felt hot and stuffy due to rattling air-conditioning unit, and the window was jammed so could not open. The bed was very uncomfortable."

Staff was really nice and helpful and the motel has a lift, therefore, bringing the luggage up two floors was no burden at all. Parking was free. Would highly recommend this motel to anybody."
