Alivia

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
This hotel is a hidden gem. Fantastic location. We walked to the Australian Open and all around the cbd shops easily. A nice vegan cafe across the alley and a vibrant cafe in the hotel foyer, while also be close to lots of other cafe options. The staff were very friendly. Our room was large and very quiet. Massive TV! The shower in the bathroom had great pressure. The sliding doors/walls in the bathroom were ‘interesting’ but were able to be completely closed for privacy. We would certainly stay again.

Stayed here on the recommendation of other reviews. Definitely wasn’t disappointed. Great, friendly staff, room spotlessly clean, great amenities. Central location, close to everything. Breakfast at the hotel was excellent. Only a short walk from the parking (very reasonably priced) to the hotel. Will definitely return
