Gym was good. And cafe also. I would give this 5 stars expect the air conditioning in the rooms ridiculously loud, even with ear plugs in! also, doesn’t allow you to put temp any lower than 20 degree Celsius. You really need to sort the air conditioning

Great hotel in a great location for walking but our air conditioning did not work for a large part of our stay and our room was unbearably hot. Not pleasant at all, which was a pity as we like Little National in Newcastle.

This was our fourth stay at Newcastle LN since they opened last year. Signs of wear and tear, inconsistent communication between the staff and a terrible drain like smell trapped in the room air conditioning....
