Staff were very noisy in the morning. I could hear them banging cupboard doors and talking at 7.30, they actually woke me up. When I was checking in, our room wasn’t ready and the receptionist said she would call me when it was ready. Never received a call which was really annoying as when I returned, they said my room was ready

Loved the location for easy access to walkway, bowls & RSL Club. Cooktown was an amazing place to visit with so much history. The Sovereign was a real treat to stay at, the amenities were great, clean and tidy-worth the money to stay.

Fabulous pool and gardents
The grounds and public areas of this hotel are beautiful and very well maintained. Our 2 bedroom/2 bathroom apartment was clean and well equipped but unfortunately was on the ground floor with only a small strip of sky visible from the lounge and main bedroom. The second bedroom was a bit like sleeping in a cave. I would recommend requesting a room with a view of the pool (or the street). Disappointing that bathroom amenities were not eco friendly - hopefully that will change in the near future.
