We loved almost everything in this lovely code hotel. First of all - very good price given its locationroom size. Other thing were breakfasts, on top of a traditional English/Scottish (which I don't like too much) breakfast you had a choice of fresh fruits, cereals, bagels, cheeses... Last but not least - great customer service! Both ladies - Monika and... more

Not a bad place per se, but you can find better. Nice enough area, small rooms, but NO hot water and breakfast didnt start til about 730am. There was no reception to check out til 7am and that was cutting it close for me as I had to leave the city by 8am and had a 20 minute walk to... more

The rooms and the bath facilities were rather old and the room to the street not very quiet but we slept well anyway. The breakfast was very good, with fresh fruit and a big selection of almost everything. We did not try the cooked breakfast though. Most of the personnel was very friendly and helpful. Very good: free Internet computer!... more

This is a good standard budget Hotel within walking distance of the city centre and attractions. It is a little basic inside but was clean and tidy. We chose a family room at the back of the Hotel after advice that the front rooms were noisy and I can see this would be the case. We negotiated the price with... more

Stayed 3 nights at the Richmond and was very happy with the overall package. The price was very good, the room clean and tidy and the location was perfect...just a short walk away from Princes and George Street and the service was second to none. The buffet breakfast was basic but did the job...all in all a highly recommended place... more

The single room is tiny. It overlooks a major 4-lane main road which is busy 24/7 and the window doesn't shut so there is constant noise. I booked out after one night and went elsewhere more

Contrary to some previous reviews, we stayed at the Richmond overnight and found the rooms to be clean and welcoming and Amir was particularly helpful on arrival. our bedding and white towels were pristine - in fact i wish i could get MY whites like that - and the rooms were clean and tidy. there were some problems but nothing... more

I was wary of staying at this hotel due to the previous reviews, but it came very highly recommended from a good friend of mine, so I gave it a go. After speaking with the owner, I learned that there is new management. The hotel is in some need of a new decor, but the location could not be better.... more
