Studios on Beaumont

As bad an experience as I have had in overnight accommodation. On street parking only. Steep stairs up to rooms. Rooms are dark and dingy. Beds look and feel worn out and very uncomfortable. Quite simply, awful.

Spacious and comfortable, little noisy but to be expected in the location. Will use again

The accommodation was very basic, but the security in relation to gaining access was very good. Is located in a cosmopolitan suburb in Newcastle (Hamilton), and all walks of life are found on the streets. Note that there is no staff on site, and no check in desk. All check in and assistance is done via your smart device (mobile, iPad, etc). We did have to seek assistance from staff and they were prompt and very accommodating - batteries in TV remote control were dead. Hamilton, the suburb, does remind one of Fitzroy/Collingwood in Melbourne and Newtown/Redfern in Sydney. Homeless on the streets but up some very nice cafes and pubs. We always felt safe and the hotel's security and access (unique code to a door) made us feel secure.

Road trip Great location. Easy to find. Would definitely recommend

Perfect overnight stay Only there for a night but it was everything we needed. Restaurants and bars downstairs that can also provide breakfast. (Try the Overtime cafe, it is great) Was a bit worried about the possible noise from the street but all was quiet. Would recommend to anyone.

I won’t be back Bass from some establishment downstairs was constant. I arrived at around 4:00 and into the night it went, without ever stopping. There is an huge staircase, approximately 24 stairs, that you have to lug luggage up - no prior notification that there’s no lift. This is an issue for people with health problems who can’t lug heavy suitcases up staircases and it should have been stated. In the room I was allocated, there’s no power point next to the bed side tables so you can’t sit on the bed and do things on your phone while it charges. I was given a late check out but it looks like the tradies scheduled there that day were not informed and three of them came into my room in the morning. Everything is done digitally here as there is no reception/front desk. There is no one on site (apart from the cleaners in the morning). My flight was at 4:20pm and because there’s no reception area, there was nowhere for me to leave my luggage for the day while I waited for my flight. I had to wheel it around the streets with me all day. Another thing that wasn’t made clear prior to booking. The best they were willing to offer me was to keep my luggage in the cleaners’ room until noon when they finish - for, get this: $40!!! I’ve never stayed at a hotel in my life that charges for holding luggage! I won’t be back due to the above issues, but if these things don’t bother you, the room was quite big, very clean and in the best location for food options you could want.
