Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Jephson Hotel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Consider requesting a room on a higher floor (above the 5th floor) for a quieter stay, as the hotel is located on a busy street (Jephson Street). The hotel has 10 floors, so rooms on floors 6-10 might offer a better sleep due to reduced street noise. Additionally, rooms on the east side of the hotel might receive more natural light, which could be a bonus.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the lower floors (1-3) as they may be noisier due to the hotel's proximity to the street and potential noise from the service entrance.
Best views
Rooms on the higher floors (6-10) on the west side of the hotel might offer views of the surrounding cityscape, although this is not guaranteed.

🔊 Noise notes
Street noise is a potential issue, given the hotel's location on a main road. It's also worth noting that the hotel has a lift, but the exact location of the lift is not specified, so it's unclear if it's a potential source of noise.
Insider tips
Park in the nearby public car park on Amelia Street (approximately a 2-minute walk) to avoid any potential parking fees associated with the hotel. Consider requesting a room with a fridge, as this is a standard amenity at 3-star hotels, and it might come in handy for storing snacks and drinks.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
