Always love staying at the Murray Premises. Great value for the price and perfectly located downtown. Breakfast is great, again for the price. Always enjoy staying here and will definetly return!
We’ve stayed at Murray Premises dozens of times and it’s always a very pleasant experience. The staff are very friendly, rooms are excellent, great views, good breakfast and it’s close to many dining options. Highly recommended!
The free breakfast in the morning was amazing. Its the first time i stayed somewhere that breakfast was included. i cant wait to come back and stay again just to get the morning muffins.
Love the quaint atmosphere and the very friendly staff. Great quality for the price. Awesome location. It’s my favourite place to stay for a weekend getaway!
Had a lovely night downtown. Perfect place to go. Clean and cozy and staff were very pleasant and accommodating. Will definitely go there again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Great downtown location with interesting history and layout. A little bit run down in some areas, e.g., elevator, and some exits/entrances are not useable anymore, which makes getting in and out a bit tedious sometimes.
Room was clean and promptly serviced. Staff were fantastic. Breakfast is continental style but minimal.
