A well located hotel with good facilities and close to Lygon St and Melbourne Uni. Staff are very good and helpful particularly Mel at reception. I stay here a bit when in Melbourne and I find it 'painless' which is huge for me after a long day. The spa is good for a relax and the gym is adequate for... More

We enjoyed our stay here, although considering we paid for one of the 'best rooms' Queen Spa suite, our room had windows looking out into a pretty terrible courtyard that was facing other hotel windows, so we didn't feel much privacy. The room was well presented & staff were friendly & helpful when we needed anything. However upon checking in... More

I'm not sure where to start - maybe the beginning. When we arrived in our queen deluxe spa suite it stank of cigarette smoke and had a lighter on the messed up couch.... More

The king bed was extremely comfortable and the... More
