I booked this hotel as the description said it has been fully renovated in 2022, there is no way, rooms were old, damaged and very bare. No valance around the blood stained bed base. Rooms are not sound proof, extremely noisy from the outside and inside. Plus is the buffet breakfast.

Not the best stay in Melbourne. Excellent location and spacious room however housekeeping had overlooked cleaning our room before our stay and we had the last guests left overs in the Fridge and used face washers. Apart from that beds were comfortable and shower good.

It’s a popular hotel with lots of activity in peak times in the foyer and breakfast area. The standard room was compact with renovated bathrooms but limited storage space. Ideal location for inner city activities with easy access to restaurants, shops, theatre and transport.

This is our usual go-to when staying in Melbourne. Conveniently located in the middle of the city and has plenty of public transportation (trams) nearby to take you around town.

The hotel is in a great location in the middle of a bustling Melbourne CBD and the staff were amazing and helpful. The bed was not very comfortable and the cot mattress had definitely seen better days. The bathroom was very small even for a hotel and the door was a sliding one that could not be locked so it was hard to keep our toddler out of it. Despite that we had a wonderful time!
