What guests think

The Henty offers friendly service and generally clean rooms in a convenient location near town, with many guests praising value; however, experiences vary between renovated and older rooms, and traffic noise can affect stays.

The on-site restaurant is widely praised, while the indoor pool draws mixed feedback for being cold or tired. Many note spacious layouts and comfortable beds, though thin walls and patchy Wi-Fi detract. Housekeeping is generally solid with a few lapses, and parking at the door is easy. Expect a practical, value-minded stay with some trade-offs.

Hotel was well presented, service was great and room was clean and functional. Pool wasn't heated (April) so it was cold, but my son and i went in for 20mins anyway.

The Henty claimed to provide free laundry facilities. There was only one washer and one dryer. The room they were in was barely large enough to move around inside. It was Disgustingly Dirty. The machines were very dirty as well. They did not provide laundry soap. The dryer didn't work at all. My clothes never dried, even though I put them through the dryer twice. The washer ruined my brand new (never warn) dress. It left purple mold marks all over my cream dress, even though I only washed it with white clothing. I've never been able to get the mold out. Nor has my dry cleaner. The property in on a very busy road so it can be laud if you are booked into a room close to the road. The restaurant has good food but is overpriced.

We stayed at the Henty in room 29 for 3 nights. There were a few issues such as hot water sink tap don’t work. Bed side table light on the right side don’t work. There were dead Mosquitoes on the ceiling and the bathroom. It was pretty gross. The sliding doors to the fridge does not glide smoothly hence it was hard trying to get to the cutlery and fridge. We mentioned to the front desk that their WIFI isn’t working and they said to try in an hour and it was still wasn’t working. We gave up and didn’t bother asking anymore. Location was ideal for our stay and the receptionist as well as restaurant was good.

The room was dusty and dirty, hair on towels, cobwebs, holes and rips in curtain, could hear traffic from the highway as sliding door only has flick lock and glass isn’t double glazed. Gaps in door, allowing spiders etc to come in, thankfully found the fly spray. Staff were friendly. Other reviews say rooms being renovated but not sure if ours was one of them.

You get what you pay for. Room was very cheap, but is very run down and in desperate need of repairs/renovations. Bed was comfy enough though and shower pressure was good. Hotel/restaurant part seemed to be pretty good but didn't eat or drink there as the prices were quite steep.

The rooms were clean, tidy and well appointed. We were on the ground floor in a room close to the highway, which I was initially worried about, but there was surprisingly little road-noise to be heard. We were too late booking a table in the restaurant but their full menu is available through room service which was excellent. Reception staff were incredibly welcoming and an asset to the hotel.
