Historic building, tastefully renovated and right in the heart of downtown. Generally clean with a good shower / hot tub and heated floors in bathroom was a nice addition. However, no after-hours dining, and not even a real coffee cup in the room to enjoy tea/coffee. Minimalist, bordering on cheap does not marry well with a hotel claiming a 'boutique' moniker.

Great value and beautiful room.
Had a few days here just before Christmas. The first room was lovely and spacious and quite comfy. The air ducts over the door were making a loud noise so I switched rooms for the second and third nights. Second room was super quiet and very nice but the pillows and bed covers were worn and could use replacing. Amazing bathrooms with huge showers, amazing water pressure and hot air towel dryers that was a nice touch. I would stay here again. Great value and great location, central to the downtown bar and club areas as well as close to shopping and the harbor front.

We love the Murray Premises and find the prices are always the lowest. Prices these days are insane as is most everything but we can always find a great room for a great price here. The only thing missing for me would be a gym! But that won’t prevent me from staying. Breakfast isn’t huge but it’s just fine. Always recommend Murray Premises!

Myself and my wife stayed at this hotel over the Christmas break. We attended a supper at the keg and decided to book into the hotel to spend the night. We stayed in room 326. The room was beautiful however our experience was not. Upon returning from the keg at approx 9:30, we heard what sounded like someone on a microphone and a crowd cheering for about an hour to an hour and a half. I’m not sure if there was a function happening however it was extremely loud. I understand this is an old property however the sounds of cars travelling up and down roadways could be heard just as if we had the window open. Several times throughout night it also sounded like a truck was being offloaded and what sounded like metal racks being rolled around. Again in the morning approx 8am we were woken by sounds of what we thought was a truck being offloaded continued. We could also continued to plainly hear racks or trolleys being rolled around. Upon checking out the lady on the front desk didn’t even as much as ask how our stay was in which I would have voiced the issues. This was an extremely disappointing experience with the property. I am not typically one to complain and have stayed over 200 nights this year alone in various hotels across North America however I felt it necessary to voice these concerns. I did e-mail the hotel with the these concerns however did not hear back from them.
