Around 100 emergency service workers raced to the scene following reports of a fire on the second floor, with a total of eight rooms said to have been affected.
Thankfully, the fire was extinguished by around 9pm.
Six people were hospitalised, including three residents and two members of staff who attempted to control the flames with fire extinguishers.
