Whilst the building itself was impressive, the Music Room was not. For the price I expected some luxury awaiting me, but not to be. It was very cold outside and understandably the old building took a while to warm up, but the furnishings and general condition was old, tired and dreary. The bed was very hard, I didn’t sleep well, pillows hard and stale. No extra blankets provided even though the dead of winter. The bathroom is 4 rooms away from the bedroom, so the midnight rush was very cold indeed. Breakfast was provided, bacon, eggs, bread for toast, DIY which was fine, and some complimentary port on a tray, thank you. Parking is on the street, not secure. We stayed in another b&b 2 nights previously at a much cheaper rate and were blown away by the luxury and attention to detail. So Old Parkes Convent you need to lift your game, or drop your price.

Property was very clean and is certainly “a step back in time” as it was built in 1910.

We stayed in this quaint old building in a large suite fitted out with an eclectic mixture of furnishings. The suite was comfortable and clean, the bed was excellent and the host welcoming. The kitchen, while dated, had everything needed and the breakfast was very adequate.

We liked the old world charm, the hospitality of Colin the host, all the utensils and appliances provided, the comfortable furniture and decor, the big desk, the fireplace and the location was quiet but close to the centre of town.

This is a grand old building with several different apartments. It is close to the town centre. The whole set up looks tired but it is comfortable and well provisioned. The apartments are large. I would not say it was worth the money. Parking is on the street and there are several steps to the front verandah and lots more if you are staying in the chapel.
