Channings

The 41 bedrooms are up-to-the-minute and have been designed with great expertise using a collection of striking fabrics in bold colour combinations. Ideal for romantic getaways, some rooms have roll-top or double-sized Jacuzzi baths, as well as great views across the historic skyline. Impressively, all rooms are equipped with international modem points, voice mail, eTV - a television / in room entertainment centre which includes a variety of channels, movies on demand, internet access, radio, a music jukebox and hotel information. Experience great food and flavoursome wine in the warm and welcoming ambience of Channings Restaurant.

Unlike many hotels, Channings really does cater appropriately for both the leisure and business customer, and the Library and Kingsleigh Suites (located in a part of the building that was once home to explorer Ernest Shackleton) are ideal for conferences, meetings and other corporate events.
