The hotel is well positioned and the access to cinema and restaurants is wonderful. In room dining meals were delivered on time, hot and tasty. Breakfast selection is extensive and worth at least one meal or taking out the breakfast option. This unfortunately is where the positives start to fall off: The ‘Creative Sun’ room was spacious but the furniture coverings were of a material that can’t be easily cleaned on a regularly basis. These points showed on the upholstery and the cushions/soft appointments were stained. The hotels efforts to provide a retro industrial chic feel were detracted by the level of cleanliness. On a positive the bed was comfortable and the sheets clean. However the acrylic bed blanket is old and covered in pilling. Carpet was dated and there was stained with lint and dirt on the floor. The dust on top and of the cupboards was thick and came off when opening the door to the fridge nook. The bathroom is wonderful and the towels clean, large and soft. The heating thermostat errored frequently. The lighting was dim and temperature setting could not be seen. A torch was used. There are a number of residents who own dogs, which made elevator rides interesting. Immediately outside side the hotel on the stones there were multiple dog droppings. Should be picked up not welcoming

This is my favourite hotel in the entire country. I stay at Ovolo if I can in every city. Even my own! and also including overseas (Hong Kong). The stand out for me at Nishi is the design, the bed linen that is superb and the location. I came for a national photographic portrait prize and you can always pop by what is on. Floriade, another visit to the National Gallery, etc. One thing I noticed, mini bar used to be free. Its gone from great to reduced to a few things to pay for mini bar. It is the thing that set you apart except for the above, for me.

Spacious room with view

The hotel is about 15-20 mins walk from city centre. There are cafes and restaurants near the hotel for a quick bite. We stayed at the original sun room which is spacious and overlooks the lake. Lighting is not bright enough though there are many light settings in the room.

We found the rooms to be particularly dark with no natural light even in the middle of the day- and without sufficient in room lighting for day to day tasks such as working, applying makeup. Corridors were also very dark with no natural light making it difficult to navigate to eg; the car park. No window with outlook to tell if it was sunny or raining etc Also re streaming tv service - we were able to use chrome cast to stream - but there was NO sound making it unusable.

This stunning property is all about 'COOL' from the moment you arrive in the eclectic space (an architectural gem) to the rooms themselves. An open area for the bar and casual dining, with fireplace and funky objects on display as well as a massive descending staircase that takes you to a first-class cinema (no need to leave the hotel) and at the time of my stay the Scandinavian Film Festival was on show! If only they had not closed their dining room, an inviting space with an excellent menu for the omnivorous plant-loving dinners: now just a simple spot in the bar with a limited choice :(

Stay was ok staff were lovely at check in but didn’t think this was a 5 star that people raved over. We stayed in the meandering room. No sports stations on the tv, facilities were low and wasn’t what we felt people raved about.
