Average stay overall. Bed wasn’t to our liking but that is an individual thing. Breakfast was ok but absolutely chaotic dining area. No observed coordination from staff which created chaos. No control of entry of guests resulting in too many people which flowed into shortage of food, plates & cutlery…and many people walking around with food & nowhere to sit. Staff were functional but not welcoming at reception.

The hotel is conveniently located close to Southbank and the VIC Arts Centre, 15-20 minutes walk to Melbourne Park. We had a lovely view over the gardens from our twin room on level 18. The room was reasonably small but as expected with twin single beds placed very close together. The beds were comfortable apart from a plastic-topped pillow top on the mattress that was reminiscent of a hospital bed and noticeable when you moved around. Shower pressure was reasonable but the bathroom, which was separated from the bedroom area by frosted, patterned, translucent glass, had an unusual design with one door used to close off either the entire room or just the shower. It was good to have a tiled entry for wet umbrellas and an open wardrobe with room for a suitcase at the base, as well as a kettle in the room. The breakfast buffet of hot and cold offerings was reasonable but you need to get there before 9 am if you want a full selection of items.

The girl at the check in desk on NYE was fabulous as she was trying to do everything on her own, as well as the bar counter. More staff were really needed. Mark, the breakfast manager was fabulous, friendly and extremely helpful. The bathroom doors in the hotel rooms freaked me out that they automatically would close. Not sure if that is something for handicapped guests but it made me very uncomfortable. Great location. Would stay again. Thx

The hotel is conveniently located, which is a definite advantage. However, there are some significant issues that need to be addressed. The room was very dusty, and even after housekeeping had serviced it, it was clear they hadn’t vacuumed properly, as I found piles of hair in the corners. Additionally, there were visible stains throughout the room, as well as in the corridors, reception area, and dining room, which detracted from the overall cleanliness and comfort. Most of the staff were pleasant and professional, but unfortunately, one receptionist with short hair was exceptionally rude and displayed an attitude that is unacceptable in the hospitality industry. I strongly recommend that management address her behavior to ensure guests are treated with respect and professionalism. With some improvements in cleanliness and staff training, this hotel could offer a much better experience.
