Great place to stay when you want to go to Lygon St and also Exhibition building. Third stay - staff helpful and room clean. Nice to be able to open a window in room 110. Breakfast staff cheerful and friendly.

I was in Melbourne on business. I arrived quite late (7:00 pm) and the room assigned was ideal - quiet (which I'd requested) and pleasant. The desk staff were pleasant and arranging internet access was easy. My prepaid breakfast was unbelievably good for the small amount that I was charged. The location was also ideal because my meetings were at University of Melbourne, and I met people for dinner on Lygon Street. It is also fairly close to the city. The desk staff printed out my boarding pass, and they also arranged to mail an orthodontic apparatus back to me in Sydney, which I accidentally left in the room. All in all, an extremely pleasant stay at an impressive hotel. I'll be back.

Fine -- needed a place to lay down the weary heaad before an early start and it was ideal. One minor quibble: the data port beside the bed started emitting a persistent beep-beep-beep tone in the middle of the night. It woke me up but then stopped!

Good location & friendly staff. Bathroom was newly renovated but the toilet to handbasin distance was too short. Also the square handbasin was not easy to use.

apart from being a bit surprised with the empty bar fridge and the occasionally mediocre TV reception the overall experience was pleasant. I however could not dial through to the front desk for some reason. Another slight issue was the height of the shower heads being rather low, especially considering the fact that i hardly consider myself tall at all.

We could smell cigarettes being smoked nearby (inside?) and in an adjoining room there were several girls who talked ALL night. We do not know how, but we could hear them through the walls.

We had a pleasant welcome and similar service from any staff we dealt with. The restaurant food and service, particularly the evening dining, was also top quality, although a "please wait to be seated" sign at breakfast would have saved us an embarrassing moment.
Terry from Perth, Australia 04 December 2011
Thank you for your positive feedback and i will be sure to pass on your kind words to the dinner staff. We normally do have a please wait to be seated sign however they may not have had it up, we are very sorry about this. In terms of the ramp we are trying our best to find a solution. As per council regualtions our entrance is too steep to put in a ramp. However if you see reception you can obtain access to our car park entry & use the elevator to come to reception for check in & out. Again thank you for taking the time to offer your feedback & we hope to see you again.

I was attending a conference at Melbourne Uni, so the hotel was very convenient. The price was reasonable. I didn't have much interaction with the staff, but when I did they were courteous and professional. The room was comfortable and well maintained. In all, a very good experience.

Roger from Bolton Point, Australia 02 December 2011
Firstly thank you for your positive feedback. I am glad you enjoyed your stay with us and hope that you choose to do so again when in Melbourne. In terms of the shuttle service i am very sorry you had a bad experience with them. They are usually very punctual. They do say allow them an hour to get you to the airport but in saying that if they are running late there is little to be done & again i apologise for any inconvenience caused by their delay. We are looking at another shuttle company called VHA and hopefully they provide a better service. Thank you, Kali
