“Just OK”

The staff was extremely courteous and helpful. However, the guest rooms were in need of refurbishment (dingy paint, and the windows needed cleaning even on the inside). Blow dryers were not hot enough to dry my hair quickly. Wine and food prices in the bar were high even compared to other spots we visited in Melbourne. Overall this hotel met our needs, as we were there for the F1 and didn't spend much time in the room. Bed linens were clean and nice; towels could have been thicker. I guess I was looking for a Hyatt experience but got a Best Western one instead.

“Not impressed”

While the room and common areas are well maintained, the elevator and aisles were in a deplorable state. I would go back, but only for a short stay where sleeping comfort was my priority.

Traveler's tip
Across the street is Yum Cha, a dim sum place just entering Chinatown. Food is great and service amicable.
