Attika Hotel

Mold in the bathroom and uncomfortable beds

Great location, easy walking distance to office, comfortable, clean and quiet. TV in bedroom needs to be lowered to avoid neck strain.

Visiting Family Checked in and given a room, to be told the next day when I arrived back at night I was in the wrong room as this room had not been cleaned and I should be in another room. So I was checked into a room that had not been cleaned and slept in a bed that had not been changed since previous occupant and it was made out to be my fault even though the key card given at check in opened the room and did not open the room I was supposed to be in. I was basically told to change rooms with no help and in the dark as they had switched off the power to the original room and would not switch it back on. Once this situation passed, the stay was good and rooms were ideal for what I required.

Stayed for a week in February. First the pros. Location is good as it’s in Northbridge so lots of cafes and restaurants around. Big IGA Supermarket is 600m down the road on Newcastle St which was very convenient. My room was spacious and clean and faced the back so it was very quiet. The reception is friendly and very helpful. Now the cons. Parking is tricky at this hotel. It’s extra on top of the room rate and there are not enough bays. I had to park my car outside in the CPP parking on Aberdeen St which is much cheaper than the hotel for the day but it was a real struggle to find parking on weekends when Northbridge gets busy. Rooms are only cleaned once a week so need to ask for extra bin bags and washing up liquid from reception. Wifi code that I was given at check in only works for one device so had to get 3 of those so I could connect my phone, laptop and tablet to the internet. All in all though, I had a pleasant stay once I got past the parking situation.

The reception staff are brilliant but unfortunately the property is tired and worse .. a bit dirty. I had to move rooms due to a few factors and the front desk staff were fantastic and apologetic. But the rooms are not serviced and the general cleanliness is poor. Even in my second room the quilt was stained , all the skirting covered in dust etc.. its a pity because the location is just so great . Maybe they just need new cleaners and to spend a bit of money on the place.

Good location and friendly staff
