Wish we had researched just how far the hotel was from the airport, and had known there was a bus we could have used. We walked, carrying the bags, not an easy feat when you are in your 70's !!! Needless to say, we caught the bus back to the airport!! Otherwise, loved the hotel and friendly staff.

Another great stay. Beds comfy, room clean, good sized bathroom, bigger than usual fridge in room. Quick checkin and checkout. Friendly staff. Carparking attached to hotel run by another company is a bit pricy but still convenient.

Staff were excellent and my room clean and comfortable. Unfortunately the elevators are being replaced/refurbished so a bit of a maze to get to my room but signage was clear.

Good for the money. It was towards the “budget” end so had no expectations on a luxury stay. Room was clean and comfortable. Currently the lifts are under refurbishment so it was a bit of a hike and a muck around. Service was good. Location wise it’s only a short walk to the heart of Melbourne. Street noise was disruptive over night but that’s to be expected when our room faced Lonsdale St. All in all a decent option for the price.

From the moment we walked in the hotel we felt welcome. The staff throughout the hotel are excellent, friendly and helpful. The hotel was central for shopping, so many choices for dinning and theatre's to see a show. The rooms were clean, comfy and had all the extras i look for, like face washers , nice bathroom products, good size bar fridge, great pillows, comfortable chairs, nice bed, and a yummy buffet breakfast. Best, this was all at a very good price. Highly reccomend of theatres in walking distance.
