Stayed in one of the hotel rooms for a week. During the week it was lovely. Rooms are serviced every day. Beds are changed and towels are changed daily. Rooms are big bright and airy with large bathrooms. At the weekend once the rooftop club is in full swing it is rather noisy but then we expected this as we... More

Not far from the beach and from the big streets everything close (not if you like to be in the city center!) The kitchen is a bit too small... More

Normally I'd read reviews before booking accomm but this time I didn't. That was my first mistake. I booked online, photos of the rooms looked good. I went to check in and upon arrival I noticed all of the people in the outside seating area of the pub downstairs. Loud & intoxicated. I advised the bouncer that I was here... More

Hotel Barkly is situated on the intersection of Barkly St/Grey St & Inkerman St. We have recently upgraded our venue frontage, a Hotel Barkly sign is clearly visable and we also have new awnings showing the entrance to the Accommodation. All of our rooms have undergone some recent maintenance and some great new large flat/widescreen TVs are our recent addition... More

Sorry you didnt enjoy your stay with us. During the period you stayed with us we did experience some extremely bad weather and had Pest Control out immediately to rectify the problem, this was quickly resolved and we have had no further issues since then. More

Although advertised as a hotel, and charging associated rates, this hotel is actually a couple of rooms situated on the same level as the hostel rooms. The rooms are on level 2, sandwiched between the basement nightclub, ground floor pub and rooftop nightclub. You have to pass the bouncers and queue for the elevator with the clubbers heading to the... More
