So many options for food close by, plus the tram and free down town bus make transport around very easy. This is my second stay here in 2 years, both have been nice, its a... More

My family and myself stayed for 5 nights, 01/01/12 – 06/01/12. Not a cheap hotel at over $AU600 per night.   During this stay we had a number of problems with the room and the service we received when attempting to resolve them. I travel extensively and this hotel is the worst I have EVER stayed in. I have stayed... More

I stayed in the hotel during first week of Jan 2012. I understand, it could be busy because of New year rush.But the front desk was over-crowded only 2 people on shift. If they are saving money , the manager should NATURALLY come to reception and help staff out. But he seems be to busy sitting in his pigeon hole.... More

The air conditioning vent and drainage holes in bathrooms looked like they hadn't been cleaned for a long time- very grimy. Finger prints on rangehood, dirt under edge... More

My partner and I stayed from 31.12.11 to 09.01.12 and found the hotels location very convenient to all amneties; transport, food and entertainment.
