The unit we were in was very dark even in daylight. The floors creaked badly and we were unable to close our bedroom door because it was so far out of plum with the door frame. The insulation on the wiring for one of beside lamps was defective to the extent we did not use it in case it caused an injury. We had five seniors in our group and we all disappointed with the unit. It is a shame because the location is good and the exterior of the units fit with the Cataract Gorge Location.

We were disappointed with our accommodation here. When booking, nowhere did I read about the stairs to get to the rooms. We found these very hard, especially getting our bags up there. The room had hardly any natural light either so we didn’t really want to stay in the room. Nothing was open there either. room was quite clean but we wouldn’t stay again

We were pleasantly surprised by the space, cleanliness and amenities provided in the room. The staff were very helpful and parking was free. We were having difficulties with carrying our luggage down the stairs and a staff member helped us and even loaded our luggage in the boot of our car.
I would quite happily stay at the Penny Royal Hotel & Apartments again on our next trip.

The staff were very helpful. We arrived late, our keys were easily accessible in a safe box, but the receptionist who was about to leave stayed to help us take our bags up to our room. We were also offered late checkout and help with storing our cases. Every staff member was equally friendly.

A familiar stay. Staff assistance beyond reproach. The facilities within the rooms are starting to look somewhat worse for wear but the housekeeping staff make every effort to put a gloss upon the rooms. A pleasant stay.

Great view onto the Tamar River and up to the waterfall near the Gorge from our room. Older style apartment- good amount of room. Quiet at night.
About 20 steps to bring luggage up.
