Location was good, everything we needed was in walking distance. However I would not stay again due to the following: room smelled awful and was worse when the air conditioner was on, hallway smelled of cigarette smoke, dirty walls in room, mouldy shower curtain, threadbare carpet.

Average at best
We recently stayed in an interconnecting apartment and the stay was ok. The room was what we needed but one of the bathrooms had a terrible smell coming from the drain and we had to ask for toilet paper and towels as these weren’t supplied daily. The beds were uncomfortable and the pillows terrible. Overall, the hotel is located in the heart of Chinatown so a good location. I probably wouldn’t stay again as for the price we could have got something nicer. The rooms were tired and had worn carpets and furnishings.

They were not prepared for check in as the key card system was down. There was one person on the desk who had to look after all check ins at a fully booked venue. My TV didn't work, and the rooms were not serviced.

The check in staff didn’t know what they were doing, the room had a dirty ashtray on the balcony, the curtains in the room were old and dirty. The fringe rattled all night. The tv was an old TCL and had hardly any channels no chance of any streaming. On arrival after dinner there were drug affected people trying to get in the front door it felt very unsafe. Not the usual punthill standard needs a total refurbishment and trained staff. We wouldn’t stay here again it only has location going for it that is all

The room size, hotel location, staff were great. They fell short where the room wasn't cleaned, and nothing worked well. The coffee machine didn't work. The stove didn't start easily.

The bedroom and living area was very clean... the bathroom desperately needs renovations or at least a good clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. Location is perfect.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Staff excellent and good location. Room was cleaned but very run down - torn and stained sofa (which was too uncomfortable to sit on), lumpy and soft bed (with stains on the bedhead), curtains missing (but rails and hooks there), toilet full flush broken, fittings damaged, carpet and other stains (some on a seat that made me avoid sitting there). Whilst a handy location and staff were excellent, the room was very tired and poor upkeep (although seemed cleaned as well as it could be) - not what I expected for the brand or price. Both sofa and bed terribly uncomfortable which impacted my stay.

Great stay & location at an affordable price
Was a great stay, they gave us a complimentary late check out. Pricing was great. Staff were warm and welcoming upon check in, which was so quick. The room was great, it's a little bit outdated, but it was great for the price & location. Will definitely be returning. Thanks so much for an amazing stay!

Great location, very helpful and pleasant staff, clean room, but best of all the room has daily service! Since Covid I have forgotten what having your room serviced is like as most hotels have used Covid as an excuse not to do this anymore. So a big thanks you to Punthill

Very disappointing
The inside of building is dirty and has lots of damaged walls and dirty carpet within the common areas and rooms. The rooms did not feel clean. There were rips in our bed sheets. The bathroom wasn’t particularly clean with streaks on the ledge and the toilet brush was filthy. There were rotten areas of skirting board and patches of plaster on the walls - all unpainted. There was a spring in the sofa bed that pushed into you when you sat down which was very uncomfortable and made the sofa unusable. Minor issues - only one tea bag was provided, and toiletries one of each type with 3 guests staying - and there was not a bin in the kitchen - only in the lounge. For the price I found this property to be very sub standard and have no idea how it has received so many amazing reviews in the past. My only real expectations was for it to be clean and comfortable - sadly it was neither.

Ok but dated, better for couples or groups
Solo female trip. Staff were professional and helpful. The property is dated and a few pieces of furniture in my room could do with replacing. Internet is poor and TV reception is not great either. The area outside felt a bit sketchy later in the evening. Because of this I wouldn’t choose to stay again.
