Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Gladstone House Hotel from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise the Gladstone House for its trendy location, placing it within walking distance of top-notch restaurants, bars, and shops. The hotel's unique charm is another highlight, particularly the aesthetically pleasing rooms and the spectacular decor in common areas, not to mention the retro elevator that many found amusing. A free coffee station available 24/7 is appreciated, while some guests have noted that street-facing rooms can be a bit noisy due to the hotel's central location. The spacious rooms, comfortable beds and convenient access to public transportation into the city centre, make it a great base to explore the city.

i found the staff very friendly. the beds were super comfy and i slept well each night. i also found the location perfect for my needs.. many restaurants and cafes were within walking distance. ossington and liberty village were easily accessible from here.
i found there was no parking on site. i had to walk from the parking area to the hotel with heavy luggage. i also noticed there were no wardrobes in the room, which would have been useful.

the location was excellent. the staff was lovely
The hotel looked great. I booked it to use the lovely bar and restaurant. however, on arrival the whole hotel, including the bar, lobby, and restaurant, had been given over to a wedding. there was no prior notice of this, and it was very awkward checking in. the hotel should not have been charging guests such a high price per night for a service they could not deliver.

the staff was friendly and cute when i arrived, which i appreciated after a long trip.
My room faced the street and it was noisy, even late at night. I could hear streetcars and traffic. the room itself felt a bit small, and the air conditioning unit rattled loudly. i found it hard to relax due to the constant noise and the lack of space.
