Super friendly staff, awesome location. Had a small issue with our room that was sorted out with no dramas. Great value for the price and super big towels which are always a bonus. The mini bar is Melbourne elite and I do like that you can order the pub food through room service. Must try the cheeseburger toastie.

We loved our stay. Staff were friendly and attentive. This place hasn’t changed…… although not as bright and shiny as 20 plus years ago it continues to be a timeless boutique hotel with an attention to detail that captures bespoke design.

Nice bed and good location but the light switches were all messed up / mislabeled and it took us until the end of our trip to figure them out. Likewise the taps easily blasted us with cold or hot watrrq

Conveniently located, walk to bars and restaurants. Hotel room was clean but a little tired looking. Basic amenities, a little noisy, good for a short stay. Breakfast was excellent, made to order. Parking was easy and with a direct acceess to hotel. Got a free parking as a VIP Expedia member which was great. Staff was super courteous and professional. Everything as expected, recommend for a short stay.
