The booking is still showing up in my app at least, but I've had no further information from the hotel.

I have submitted a NSW Fair Trading complaint.

How stressful for you @Phoenix-1 - I guess you now have a fair level of uncertainty about whether that booking will stick and what they will try to charge you for it.

I have stayed at this property once and never would again.
It is an unrenovated uncomfortable relic from the 1970s.
If I were in your position I would definitely be looking for an alternative.

I think for the OP the period for the hotel to claim ‘mistake’ and action it has long passed.

If they try it now I’d be filing a VCAT/NCAT/your-state-tribunal case.

It was renovated when Accor took it over in 2012

Post updated.
But why does it still look and feel like a relic from the 1970s?

Possibly the Basil Fawlty effect that's brought on by the behaviour of management?
