The Gem is centrally located in the main street of Griffith, with secure onsite parking at the rear of the property. It is 5-10 min walk up to the supermarket and has plenty of dining options in Banna St to tempt you if you are not dining in the Hotels' Steakhouse. My room was a standard queen with a small desk and chair, not quite as spacious as some other hotels but manageable for one. The room was very clean and the complimentary toiletries were good products. Individual air con control for the room is a bonus. The bed and pillows were comfortable, with extra pillows and blankets if needed. Shower was hot and pressure very good. I did not hear any traffic noise even though the hotel is located in the main street. The reception staff are friendly and helpful with directions.

Nothing not to like.

Great location, and the rooms are really well appointed. The bed was very comfy, the were some great extra amenities in the room like a sachet of washing up liquid and cloth (it's great to be able to wash glasses that I have been using without having to wait for the cleaners to replace them). The window was a sliding door which opened which I really liked.

Just be aware that if you are facing the Banna Avenue side it can be a bit noisy (especially if you are a light sleeper like me!), and like many places the secure parking area is not very big so its a first in basis, we ended up parking on the street overnight and had no issues.

The Gem is central. Larger room was great. As my home town originally it was nice to see Griffith have a little more upmarket accommodation. Have guided friends to stay with you and they were impressed.

We changed rooms due to the small size. We upgraded to a larger room and cut our stay by one night.(101-111).This I believe was caused through booking with booking.com. We were told there was only two rooms left so we booked the mini queen. A learning curve..... Shower recess floods very easily. Maybe smaller pillows available but lovely room overall.

Has a bar downstairs, the rooms are nicely appointed, good restaurant downstairs, and useful desk for working in your room, big TV.

It’s in the main street of town and there’s a lot of noisy cars on the weekends so if you’re staying on the main road side it’s not super peaceful Friday or Saturday nights in particular. Call ahead if you are in a group - they will say their system does not auto allocate a booking for 2 rooms near by each other, lucky our child is a teenager, but if you wanted seperate rooms for your children, call ahead before your told at the checkin desk too bad so sad.

The Gem Hotel couldn’t be more central in Griffith. The modern hotel ticks all the boxes with a huge comfortable bed in a decent sized room. Parking is limited so we missed out on a spot, but there is street parking in front of the hotel.

The hotel sent several txt messages seeking information before our arrival, Given the many problems with scammers hacking BookingdotCom systems we were suspicious of the txt messages with odd web links, In short, the hotel’s approach to communications needs a re-think.

Housekeeping did an amazing job! Everything was replenished perfectly and the room was a pleasure to return to after each busy day! The hotel and room was clean, modern, and comfortable. The shampoo, conditioner and soap smelt amazing. We always managed to grab a car space in the undercover secure parking space. Our room was on level one, and at the back, and we never heard any noise - we both slept soundly in the comfy bed. Would definitely stay here again.

Unfortunately breakfast wasn’t available during our stay.

This was our second visit and the experience was as good as the first. Staff were so friendly, room large and clean. Beds big and comfy. I did ask for a lower profile pillow and it was supplied immediately.

I do like to sleep with fresh air, however had to close the door as the pub across the road was pumping out music until 2.30am. In saying that, the door is obviously double glazed as the sound was completely shut out when closed.

Great location - walk to everything. Staff friendly, professional & helpful.Restaurant was quieter than many even though it was almost full. Great food & service. Room very comfortable with loads of storage, well lit bathroom & generally well designed for guest comfort. Our room had a kitchenette which was excellent. Luxury feel. Secure parking (not many spaces)

Everything was great. Just had to wait to check out as no staff at front desk. No freezer in bar fridge so couldn’t freeze our blocks for keeping food cold on travels.

Location is great in the centre of town and can walk nearly anywhere worth going in Griffith. The 2 bedroom apartment was very spacious with a fully featured kitchen. Fully stocked and clean bathroom with plenty of towels. Comfy bed and pillows. A bit pricey for a regional city but you get what you pay for.

We were the only ones in the restaurant but the food was slow to come out and bacon was very burnt. The rest was ok though and cost what you'd expect in a major city.

The room was modern and had a comfortable bed. Enjoyed the convenience of the bar fridge, however, there are bars and restaurants nearby. The room and bathroom were very clean.

We stayed in a 'petite queen' room on the first floor. Our view from the room was a rooftop with air conditioner boxes which were noisy, so I had to have the bathroom door closed at night to block the noise. There aren't any trolleys for luggage and our room was at the end of the corridor.
