Reviews for Chifley Executive Suites
Review 1:Kitchen was lacking in cooking utensils, pots and pans. Windows were not clean, when we opened the window it was full of spider webs. We could not access the balcony from the 2nd bedroom, we asked reception and they said this door had been locked for kids, since we were 4 adults this did not work for us. When we checked in the receptionist was not very welcoming or friendly. Paid extra for parking and WIFI.
Review 2:location and great balcony with excellent view over the harbour.
Review 3:The lampshades on the bedside lamps were covered in layers of dust. Not great for anyone who suffers from allergies etc. I am assuming that the tiled areas in the apartment were not washed prior to our visit as our feet were dirty from going barefoot in the apartment.
Review 4:The location and spaciousness was excellent. Having a kitchen was also very convenient.
Review 5:Our 2 bedroom apartment for 5 people was nothing like the advertised 2 bedroom apartments... Much, much smaller. Barely room to walk between the sofa & tiny dining table, which was pushed up against the wall, meaning only 3 of the 5 of us could sit at it. (Only 4 seats anyway...) The apartment next door was huge & what we were expecting for the price paid ($455 / night including sofa bed.) The claimed 85m2 is for some 2 bedroom apartments only. Staff apologetic but didn't offer to decrease the rate.
Review 6:Full size refrigerator, microwave & laundry great.
Review 7:The room absolutely stunk - to the point we kept air conditioner on all night to make it bearable. Beds really small and uncomfortable and room size really small.couldnt stay a secound night
Review 8:The mattress was really hard and a bit difficult to get comfortable. There's no smoking.
Review 9:The room had a nice decor. There was a little self contained kitchenette that you could cook on a hot plate. Laundry was quaint and luadry products were provided.
Review 10:could do with some serving plates to be included in the crockery - garbage bags to be provided would also be helpful - no problem cleaning up but need bins etc to be able to do so - shortage of toilet paper - and the front blinds in the bedroom could be a dark shade as it is very light very early - not good for sleeping in.
Review 11:Facilities are good - location good - carpark ok - apart from these few comments a good facility for our purpose of visiting family.
Review 12:However although the location seems good it was really noisy, we had to have the balcony door shut due to the traffic noise and then the fog horns in the morning of the ships leaving the harbour. Plus you have to pay extra for parking and wifi.
Review 13:It is near the city, spacious and well appointed.
Review 14:Nowhere to park with clearance as I had a land rover discovery with pod on top
Review 15:Easy check in, no fuss, everything in apartment worked, room and hotel felt private
Review 16:A lot of street noise at night, was quite expensive for a 2 bedroom unit.
Review 17:Ease of check-in, good street parking on weekends around the hotel. Nice and modern rooms.
Review 18:Location
Review 19:The one bedroom apartment was the size of a box .it was all in one room.we did not get a bedroom separate from the kitchen.the photos tell us we get a separate room.4 star would be max for that room
Review 20:Bed wasn't that comfortable .Aircon a bit noisy .Maintenance of the unit could be better ....not very loved but still comfortable .Should look at providing free Wifi for the price .
Review 21:Good location ,great views of the harbour ..Foxtel channels were good .Washer /dryer were a bonus
Review 22:The Customs House clock chimed every hour, disturbing sleep. If you are a light sleeper this may be annoying.
Review 23:The view from our balcony. The spaciousness of the apartment which was clean and modern.
Review 24:Beer used bootle found behind a bedroom door and a pair of their sunglasses we left in bench also a cigarette butted out on balcony -
Review 25:Very friendly check in staff - great location and lovely view and modern apartment new and everything working well
Review 26:We were seeing a concert in the Hunter Valley a much cheaper option to stay in Newcastle. The bus pretty much picks you up outside the door and drops you back home afterwards. Chifley is close to cafes, boutique shops and Queens Wharf
Review 27:The room was awesome! The beds were really comfortable and I wanted to steal the pillows, so soft! It was super clean and my friend that slept on the sofa bed said it was very comfy for a sofa bed. We will be booking again for next year but are going to go 2 nights instead of one.
Review 28:Nothing
Review 29:Great location Friendly, helpful staff Clean, well designed rooms with a good functional balcony with great river views (for the ones that we selected)
Review 30:The problem with no volume on Foxtel channels was not resolved in R607. Went out for dinner at 6, informed reception of problem, she said she was going to call someone to attend to it, came back to and volume not fixed. Not happy.
Review 31:was in room 407 and think the trees out front could be trimed to allow better harbour view.
Review 32:location to east newcastles new trendy wine bars and proximity to Newcastle breakwall for early morning walk
Review 33:1. Check-in staff wasn't very friendly and not very reasonable on an issue that she could use her discretion. 2. Room wasn't cleaned on the second day. 3. Wifi very very poor
Review 34:1. Location 2. Room was comfortable 3. Check-out staff was more professional and reasonable. 4. Maintenance staff was efficient.
Review 35:Apartment very small,very expensive for size,staff not very friendly excessive loud music early hours of morning and vomit in the hallway,car park very tight,manager quite rude when complaint was lodged.
Review 36:Couldn't access rooms 504 and 505 directly from street level, had to get elevator to level 1, walk down the corridor and then catch another elevator up to Level 5. A very minor point, and probably the only negative i can think of. Otherwise everything else was great.
Review 37:Great views, good location, friendly staff and nice rooms. Will definitely stay here again if i ever find myself in Newcastle again.
Review 38:Overpriced, poor customer service, looked out at filthy brick wall, no air, parking extra? Would never stay again Hotel Sheriton prices for horrible place
Review 39:Pretty busy with a major bus stop outside front door and was very noisy if windows left open.
Review 40:Good location near restaurants and other points of interest
Review 41:Wifi is not included - my fault as I thought it has Wifi but actually we have to pay extra for it which is not so popular in the world nowadays
Review 42:good location - close to everything. Staffs are happy and helpful. room was clean and have everything you need ( as an apartment).
Review 43:There were a few trees blocking some of our view. If we stay again we will request a suite further along the coridoor. Also the remote for the air con didn't work.
Review 44:We really like the location. Close to the venue we were attending.
Review 45:Management & Staff at Chifley were exceptional. Our two bedroom apartment with two bathrooms & a view was a real bonus for three adults. The apartment was very spacious & comfortable with excellent facilities which unfortunately we did not make use of them. It was well worth paying for the parking & the security of the building was another bonus. The harbour view was amazing - thank you for making our stay in Newcastle such a pleasant one.
Review 46:It was much more expensive than we thought it should have been as the apartment was quite small and only comfortable seating for two - another settee would have been good for three people, and there was no daily room service considering the price that was very poor.
Review 47:The view.
Review 48:The room was unclean, the carpet had a wet patch where they had tried to clean up someone else's vomit, which left the room with a very unpleasant smell, there was chewing gum on the carpet/ skirting board, chairs were stained and every surface felt sticky. The staff response was to move us to another room, with no consideration or compensation for the fact that we spent one night trying to clean up someone else's mess and sleep in the stench because we checked in after reception hours. Will never stay here again!!
Review 49:Checking Out
Review 50:Lots of noise from drinking students which I was advised is common Wednesday nights. Parking limited and tight but sufficed.
Review 51:Friendly and helpful staff. Well contained. Great location.
Review 52:I think it is un necessary to charge for parking the car - should be included - I am still waiting for my $100 fee to be returned. - don't have people being able to put their room service on the bill - they should pay for it separately.
Review 53:APARTMENT WAS CLEAN,, COMFORTABLE AND WITH A GOOD BALCONY AND A GOOD VIEW -
Review 54:Price is a little expensive for Newcastle.
Review 55:Room was stunning, we needed space in the appartment as we had a few ladies getting hair and makup. The rooms as so spacious everyone was comfortable
Review 56:The bathroom was modern and spotless although not very luxurious (felt a bit like a hospital bathroom, no bath or anywhere to leave your toiletries except on the floor). The settee was a bit small for two adults.
Review 57:Great location, generous room size, comfortable bed, friendly staff, easy street parking at night, very quiet considering its city location.
Review 58:It was spacious and very well furnished. The location is perfect for a city stay. The whole apartment felt luxurious and it felt like I was staying in a beautiful home.
Review 59:Minor but having to put rubbish in bin in car park! As we only stayed one night we didn't have that much & probably wouldn't have thought about bin!
Review 60:Clean ,modern ,roomy ! The bed was very comfortable!
Review 61:The booking was for 5 (we are a family of 5) I was charged an extra $40 for use of the sofa bed. we had to cahse for pillows and towels for 5. we also was charged $40 for a late checkout - this was a very extensive night of over $500 to go to a family wedding.
Review 62:location
Review 63:The reception staff are helpful and friendly, the apartment was small but it was for one person so it worked. The view was great! Everything worked. All in all a great stay
Review 64:The receptionist on checkout named 'kate' was a condescending, rude person, who I never want to deal with again!!!
Review 65:The lady who checked us in was so lovely. The room was fantastic with an amazing view.
Review 66:Small rooms that were not very comfortable and fitted out as cheaply as possible. There seems to be a certain penny pinching spirit in the way Chifley does business that makes you feel less than welcome. The large signs warning you to take your garbage to the car park bins or be hit with an extra fee was something I have not encountered elsewhere.
Review 67:Location was ok and it was easy to find. The staff were friendly each time I dealt with them.
Review 68:Fantastic location close to beaches, river/harbour, hotels & restaurants/cafes, parks & mall/ shops. Very friendly, helpful staff, we had no problems at all. Beautiful views of river, parks & lighthouse headland, well appointed & clean apartment,
Review 69:For the money the bathroom was terrible. No water pressure and just a curtain around the shower, no benches & everything on the floor got wet
Review 70:Location ideal
Review 71:I expect parking to be included when paying for accommodation. Very disappointed that it wasn't. But no priblem parked on the street ourside our window
Review 72:Great location comfy bed and pillows. spacious suite new decor and appliances
Review 73:Signed up for 2 days of wifi but it only allowed access one at a time. Modern families have several devices!!
Review 74:Walking distance to everything, super- friendly & helpful staff. Comfy, warm, well supplied.
Review 75:The pillow case had some sort of medication on it, smelt like some sort of heat balm, I was too tired so just fell asleep, like the kitchen area, with milk etc so i could make tea and had new cleaning stuff which was great.
Review 76:A very lovely and professional receptionist who was so bubbly and makes a great start to the day! It's rare to see that level of service and I enjoyed that. I have stayed enough times and it's always a pleasant stay, location is very ideal to see my clients.
Review 77:No breakfast is offered in lounge on weekend. Lounge is shut on weekend so no way to get wifi ( advertised that wifi is available in public area if I remember it correctly)
Review 78:Nice staff, clean rooms, spacious dining rooms, good view from bacolny ( rooms with harbour view booked), convenient locations
Review 79:A party raged in a few other rooms which was uncomfortable. Management did nothing to stop it. Parking was an extra and as there was no street parking it was necessary to pay.
Review 80:The room layout and fittings were good, room was clean.
Review 81:Parking was a little on the pricey side. It also would've been more helpful if there were a few more cooking utensils and pots and pans, etc.
Review 82:The cleanliness was wonderful! Our suite was very spacious and well looked after. Definitely would stay again.
Review 83:Would have liked clean towels over the 4 day stay or more available in the room.
Review 84:Double glazed windows cut out sounds of traffic. Staff helpful at all times.
Review 85:I didn't like that the rooms looked bigger in the pictures online then they actually are in real life. eg- the penthouse suites
Review 86:I liked that we were not bothered by staff. We were able to have our stay comfortably and privately.
Review 87:Why should we have to pay for parking when we are staying in the hotel? Not once were we greeted with a hello how are you or a smile. Stood at the desk and no acknowledgment for a good few mins. I work in hospital and was actually job smacked at the service.
Review 88:Our apartment had a bad smell in the kitchen area when we walked in like someone had cooked fish. Couldn't move as no other available but offered room freshened spray which didn't really help. Iron had tip broken off which made it very difficult to use. Not good enough for money paid.
Review 89:Excellent location
Review 90:The bathroom was the only disappointment in the apartment. The shower head was broken and as the bathroom was designed to allow disabled access, the floor was flooded after each shower.
Review 91:Access one way street. difficult to view access to front of motel.... limited signage ( good not to be unattractive but near invisible)
Review 92:Easy walk to the parks and foreshore. Accessible to mall and shops, restaurants by foot. ON busy street but noise blocked out when windows closed. A little clinical but very clean and basic furniture no clattering. room to move and kitchette well equipped.
Review 93:Parking late at night was a problem even though we had booked a car space in the building
Review 94:Location wa excellent for beach as well as honeysuckle precinct
Review 95:The shower had a hand held head which could only be used as hand held. Otherwise was dropping into the wall. All in all only a small problem and the only problem
Review 96:Spacious, friendly, stylish, great price and perfect location in the cbd!!
Review 97:The extra charges for cot hire and parking, particularly as the rooms are not inexpensive Bathroom door didn't lock and there was nobody to fix it. The shower attachment was lose and the soap holder just swung around so couldn't be used.
Review 98:The room was clean and centrally located. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
Review 99:rooms was different to what i booked cause i needed 3 beds but only got 2. in the pics was 2 singles and 1 queen but got 2 queens. had 3 single adults.
Review 100:apartment was beautiful and view was brilliant
Review 101:Let down by the fàct that we had 5 guests and sofa bed for guest 5 had not been made up, even after questioning it. Was assured it was made up,then had to ring for linen etc and then endedup having to make it up ourselves. Not good after a long, busy day. No sincere apology. Not good service
Review 102:Perfect location for overseas guests. Apartment had all we had hoped for an more !
Review 103:My room was filthy, had food in the microwave and a pretty dirty kitchen. The staff are the big let down though, rude and nasty and unhelpful. Overpriced and undersatisfied.
Review 104:The view and convenience
Review 105:Lots of rules, we felt as though we would be charged if we didn't clean the apartment from top to bottom before we left.
Review 106:Beautiful view, spacious, well maintained, one night minimum.
Review 107:Our room was quite small- didn't really bother us but might bother other. There would be a great view but it is blocked by a concrete facade which seems a shame.
Review 108:The motel is walking distance to the harbour dining area in Newcastle. It is clean and well appointed. Although we didn't us the kitchen or laundry they would be very handy for a longer stay. All day parking is availble for a reasonable cost.
Review 109:Maintenance required on blinds - they were not able to be shut in lounge area Broken glass in cupboard Lounge area in 2 bedroom a bit small 2nd bedroom not at the same standard as main
Review 110:Convenient location Main bedroom good Staff helpful
Review 111:Staff were so friendly and helpful allowing us to check in early and check out late without any hassles. Room was immaculate and bed super comfy. Would highly recommend!
Review 112:Air con didn't work properly, the room was extremely warm, the noise from the street was really bad, even with windows closed.
Review 113:Lovely rooms, very spacious, the staff were excellent. Would recommend if your a heavy sleeper or the room was at the back of the property.
Review 114:1.paid internet. 2. There are too much dust in the room , it is like long time no one live inside. 3. Sometimes ,one staff served us whose name starting from B...., she is not really friendly!
Review 115:Kate served us during staying , kate is very nice lady, we received very good customer service from her.
Review 116:We were overwhelmed with the smell as soon as we entered the Apartment. We didn't want to spray a room freshner as we had a small Baby with us. Windows had no Screens & we couldn't open them as they were covered with small insects - maybe sandflies. Had to use the air conditioner all the time.
Review 117:Unit was OK, beds were comfortable.
Review 118:The apartment was nice, clean and large. The view from the balcony was great. The staff were really good and nothing was too much trouble. I would recommend this for business or a holiday.
Review 119:The staff were horrible, and I don't mean to be rude, there was probably only one nice lady but the rest of the members were just rude and not welcoming. Another downfall was the value for money as we had booked 2 rooms for the same price but one was so much smaller.
Review 120:The location because it was close to everything including several beaches.
Review 121:Just found the room to have no character, I thought the room was over priced for the facilities, especially having to pay an additional $18 for parking!!
Review 122:Location & staff
Review 123:The bathroom was filthy . So filthy I didn't even want to shower in it ! Had to resort to wearing thongs etc the mould was disgusting . Toilet was dirty . Was so expensive for wat it was .
Review 124:It was okay .
Review 125:The room had not enough light, I always check photos of the rooms before I decide on the hotel. The photos were misleading. The apartment was dark and not welcoming. The bedroom had no window at all. The TV was available in the living room no TV in the bedroom.
Review 126:Bed was really uncomfortable. Sunk in the middle. And THAT front door, too heavy. I'd hate to be elderly guests trying to open THAT door. Non-block out blinds making it very difficult to sleep in.
Review 127:Central location, cleanliness and good view of the harbour.
Review 128:The cleaning policy. You have to somehow dispose of your rubbish with no bins provided, bizarre. So ensure you pack garbage bags. Bathroom wasn't all that clean when we arrived.
Review 129:Great location. Nice apartment.
Review 130:From the pictures I thought we'd be closer to the waterfront. There were not enough carparks for the hotel guests. We had to park in the car wash. The multi-storey car park and liftvwere so hot I thought I was going to have a heart attack.
Review 131:I loved sitting on the balcony and watching the big ships come in. The apartment is sleek and modern. For some reason the bedroom with the two single beds has the ensuite and the bedroom without an ensuite has the queen size bed. Very strange.
Review 132:Didn't encounter a bad experience
Review 133:Big tv with most Foxtel channels. Great room configuration regardless whether it's a one or two room apt. Close to nice cafes and restaurants in Bolton st Staff really friendly and helpful.
Review 134:I was very disappointed with the apartment. Advertised were large apartments with separate lounge and kitchen. We were placed in a so called apartment with a lounge at the end of the bed, I classed the room more motel. Balcony large enough for to chairs.
Review 135:The location was very easy to find. Great restaurant close by.
