What a place! The equal (at least) of all the places we stayed whilst spending 30 nights in Australia and that includes the view over the bridge for NYE. Nothing but perfection.

The room was not ideal for a family the pull out sofa was dusty the carpet/rug was dirty, my kids have asthma so it was a terrible experience for them and room was full of mosquitoes and bugs constantly. For the price we paid it was very disappointing

I enjoyed my time at Hermitage! It was well-located, had ample parking, and friendly staff. The structure is a bit older so the entrance to my room had sliding doors that did not shut all the way so I had to wedge the blinds in to the gap so that no bugs would come in. In addition, the front door was a sliding door with a big window, and so in order to have privacy, the blinds had to be fully closed, but then there was no natural light in the unit.
