Our room was spotless and we so appreciated the staff letting us check in early! The breakfast was excellent, so all in all a wonderful stay at an absolutely charming hotel!
Thank you so much!
We love the Latch for so many reasons! Location = quiet (heard owls early this morning). History = it’s a unique structure and story. Hospitality = by FAR the best breakfast you will ever have included in your stay. Eggs Benny or omelet, the freshest, sweetest fruit, high quality bacon. The STAFF, go above and beyond in every way. And to top it all off, pets are welcome, a small dog park is nearby. Our dog gets pretty excited when she sees we are going to the Latch!
The team at The Latch was welcoming. Breakfast was delicious. It’s an older, stately property with comfortable beds, spacious gathering areas, and fresh baked goods.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
It's a lovely property and the manager was very friendly, the breakfast was excellent. The bedroom was clean if you didn't look closely under the bed on the windowsill around the window frames and everywhere or the human eye typically doesn't go, there was thick dust. Also on the bathroom window screens, cobwebs on the radiators and the windows. The tub the sink everything else was clean. We still enjoyed our stay - But so much dust and cobwebs really stood out to me that the cleaners were not doing a great job.
The Latch in is very comfortable - elegance from an earlier century: large rooms with a comfortable bed and places to sit - a place where you don't mind spending a bit of time. Breakfast is wonderful - adding to the pleasure of your stay.
Greater older style house (was built in 1929 as the Lieutenant's mansion) with a large room (mine, the Library, anyway). There was a great breakfast in the morning with an actual menu.
A good option for a one night stay. The staff were friendly and helpful. A charming older building that was mostly OK apart from the bathroom which needed upgrading.
The host was amazing - exceptionally welcoming and helpful. The room was clean, comfortable and quiet. Breakfast was outstanding as well. I would stay here again when in Sydney.
The Latch Inn is a lovely, charming place with uniquely decorated rooms and a comfortable sitting room. Breakfast is fresh and delicious, staff is attentive and very nice. The bed and pillows were comfortable. It is an older property so don’t expect brand new. There’s a great restaurant next door at the harbor for dinner.
We were very pleased with our overnight stay. The room was large and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast that was included with our reservation. Parking was very convenient and the grounds were lovely.
