Each room with their 4.8m high ceilings and period style furnishings will give you the relaxed feeling of being some where totally luxurious. The Denison Boutique Hotel provides for our guests the highest quality comforts, a king size four posted bed, two person spa, 42” plasma television and wireless internet, while complemented with a high standard of friendly service.

The room was amazing, spa bath was fantastic.I woke up by feeling something blowing freezing air on my neck and my back this happened 4 times other than that I will definitely be staying there again loved it. The bed was probably the best I have ever slept on.

Very nice room with all modern amenities. The only drawback to the location is limited dining options nearby. Given that I stayed there on a Public Holiday , that part of town is very quiet. Good location for rail enthusiasts.

Please ignore the odd balls who gave negative reviews. This place is beyond brilliant. Four poster beds big enough to play tennis in, and a jacuzzi in your huge colonial room, at the same cost as a faceless highway motel. Seriously good value

We were not impressed. Rooms are very old and musty smell. Furniture not clean, awful dust trap over huge four poster bed with very lumpy mattress. No separate bathroom and shower curtain too small for bath. Tiny, inadequate amenities for two and one small towel rail. Reception staff unfriendly and incompetent and so the list goes on. Location is odd - in light industrial area but across the road is the Great Western which is an old pub hostelry with character. Only redeeming factor is the Continental breakfast which is very good value. Not recommended and definitely a not return for us. Poorly run, strange place.

Dear JokeBels, Thank you for taking the time to leave us your review, We are sorry to hear you did not enjoy your stay with us. However labelling our staff as 'incompetent' is very inappropriate. Our building is almost 150 years old and can still collect a fair amount of dust which our housekeeping staff work very diligently to maintain everyday. Our website as well other third party booking sites do display the layout of our room/spas, as well as where our building is located. which you could've seen pre-booking. Amenities are replenished everyday when rooms are serviced. Staff would've happily provided extra had you requested it. We're sorry to hear you will not be returning to our establishment as you believe it is poorly ran, and strange. Kind Regards, Denison Boutique Hotel

Excellent location near railway station and the joy of seeing trains going up and down the actual street. It's a short distance from the CBD. Staying in a wonderful 19th century building with huge ceiling heights and recreation 'old' furniture. Excellent continental breakfast provided if you book directly with them?) Room is very spacious with spa bath. Only negatives are the lack of natural ventilation and the toilet which is literally a wc (water closet).

A fine example of Victorian architecture that has been tastefully renovated. Close to the CBD. Comfortable. Simple continental breakfast available. Recommend ground floor for anyone with mobility issues. Open on-site parking. Drawback: hotel is located at the intersection of a busy road and railway freight line. If you want a quiet retreat then this is probably not for you. Otherwise, it’s great.

Wow what a large room. Great spa bath and shower. Four poster bed. Fridge stocked. Substantial continental breakfast. Old antique furnishing. Rail line nearby didn’t bother us as only trains a couple of times. Parking included. Better than expected. Staff helpful.

Our second visit to Denison's was just as good as the first. The rooms are beautifully appointed with gorgeous timber furniture, 4 poster beds and a spa bath. The beds are so comfortable my husband said it was his best sleep ever. The building is heritage listed and opposite the Great Western Hotel. The dining area is lovely and the breakfast buffet was delicious. We will keep coming back.

We found the Denison Boutique Hotel by accident here on TripAdvisor and booked it for a weekend getaway for our Wedding Anniversary and are so glad we did. The staff are so amazing, friendly and helpful. I rang to arrange a surprise for my wife and they went out of their way to help. On check in we got upgraded, the a/c was on so the room was cool and inviting. The period furniture was not only aesthetically pleasing it was clean an comfortable as was the whole room. I had read some reviews about noisy rooms etc but that was far from our experience. thank you to the staff, we enjoyed every minute of our stay and will be back

The building is historic, and it has a focus on the 1880s feel with the furniture, it could have been great - if it was clean and fit for purpose as accommodation! It's 4.8m high walls were covered with dust, the skirting boards hadn't been cleaned, there was dirt and dust behind and on top of the furniture and under the bed, and mould on the windows. All of which is bad for your health and dangerous, particularly you're asthmatic or prone to hayfever. When you close the door you can still hear noise and feel the breeze from the outside. The hotel sits right on the train line, and I was repeatedly woken up by the coal freight trains through the night. I considered speaking with the staff, but after walking around the building it was evident these issues would be in all the rooms as I sighted mould on all the windows. So I contacted the company I work for and had alternate arrangements made. They have tried to leverage the buildings older looks but as a hotel it just isn't up to standard, and I travel a lot for work and see all sorts of accommodation. I genuinely take no pleasure in broadcasting my experience but hopefully it serves as a warning to anyone considering staying here.…

Thank you very much for taking your time to leave us your feedback. Let me start by apologising and how horrified we are with the experience you had. Please rest assured that this is absolutely not the standards that we adhered to. Unfortunately we have recently lost some of our key staff members and this is the handy work of the new staff member that have now been let go. We have also let go the new house keeping manager, as she was not adhering to our standards of cleanliness. All the rooms are now undergoing yet another round of deep cleaning to insure our high quality of cleanliness. Again we sincerely apologise for our oversight and we hope we get another chance to welcome you back and make it up to you.
