Overnight stay, cosy & quiet - great restaurant
Recently updated hotel room. Compact but comfortable and quiet for a 1 night stay. Tried in-house French restaurant which exceeded our expectations. Excellent food, wine and service.

The Buckingham
We stay here often because it’s always clean , comfortable and friendly. This time they were in a state of refurbishment and the Restaurants were closed but we found a lovely fish and chippery just around the corner. The service at the motel didn’t disappoint.

Highly recommended.
Michael, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel is set back from the busy highway so heard no traffic noise at all. Just over a 5 minute walk to the Highett station which has great train service to the city in just over 30 minutes. Woolworths and good local shops opposite the station. 15 minute walk to the Southland mall which has all the shops you could wish for. Room was a good size, stayed 5 nights and slept well throughout.
Carl, 5-night trip

4/10 Fair

Booked on the fact of the brand name always good standard in uk and abroad not here very poor room facilities closed down over Christmas which I found to be poor pool area wasn't fit for use really. The staff however were good and that at least made it bearable stayed a number of nights at other locations.

Rooms had recently been renovated and were clean and comfortable. I stayed in a room towards the back of the property and it was nice and quiet. Easy walk to Woolies and cafes/restaurants around the corner. Worth the money.

We are seniors and difficult to go upstairs with the luggage, the staff was nice enough to upgrade our room to ground floor.

Hotel under construction
This hotel is under construction. (as of January 2025, looks like long term). Office moved to a room temporarily. Construction noise begins at 7 am. It is right on a busy road. Train nearby. Staff are friendly but the hotel is older and obviously needs an ungrade. Restaurant is closed.

Stephen, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Disappointing and expensive
Stayed at this hotel for many many years. Room so small and uncomfortable. Charged for breakfast but not provided. My long term connected this hotel seriously failed. Living in a building site. The most expensive and not value for money
Genevieve, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Noisy at night and only four milks in the fridge for four days. Room was very clean and comfortable.
Margaret, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Staff were great as usual but the building/rooms aren’t what they used to be. Unfortunately the Buckingham is looking run down. Very noisy with tvs going all night and people smoking and talking outside til all hours.

Property was convenient for my stay and easy walking distance to train.

Upgrade is taking place, room could do with anew paint job. Air conditioner noisy on roof directly above room. Restaurant was excellent, one of the best meals I have had
Julian, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

World’s smallest rooms unless you were in Japan where you’d expect the rooms to be small AF. Free WiFi is only a bonus if the WiFi works. Most of the premises is undergoing renovation which is much needed. Wouldn’t recommend
