A great location for easy access across the CBD and easy walking to metro and tram station, and easy access to World Square eateries. Room was overall nicely appointed and a comfortable size, but a little dated in places and the hotel is showing it's age somewhat in terms of wall scuffs, carpet, bathroom tiles. However a comfortable stay, quiet, and good location for business in the city.

The room I had was very clean, however a little dated. Especially the bathroom. There was a guest causing commotion a few doors down that the police had to attend and while no fault of the hotel. I could hear it clearly in my room. The staff were very friendly though and there is heaps of parking under world square and it's close to both the tram and the metro.

The room was above satisfactory. B+. The windows unfortunately are not completely sealed from the outside noise despite the double glazing. It was only as strong as the seal. Three out of four nights there was construction work overnight (to avoid traffic disruption). Other than that the property was very good

Rooms were clean but dated. I stayed there over 10 years ago and pretty sure they are identical. Staff were amazing, built good rapore and were there when I needed them. Liked the breakfast was sad not to be able to take advantage of it on day 2 though as we had to leave for the airport before 6am when it started.

The staff were very approachable, help full and respectful. We did have problems with the window blinds as they were already broken so the ratchet was hard to either wind up or down. Breakfast was great value and also a great selection. The concierge and door staff were also great in looking after our luggage on early arrival and departure and arranged the taxi to the airport.
