Princetown Vacations from $1,592

We really enjoyed our stay at the Flagstaff Gardens Hotel. It was well placed to all the places we wanted to visit and others we discovered on the walking tour. The breakfast is good and we did eat dinner at the hotel. Our only criticism is that although the food was good at dinner, we were going to order dessert, but the main course took so long to arrive we decided we wouldn't bother.

There were no teaspoons in the room to stir coffee or sugar when making a cuppa

Nice rooftop bar, great view! Horrible shower with no door! Front desk staff weren’t that friendly.

Great overall stay! Did find the bathroom sink far too small though and each time using it would need to mop up the water on the floor. Breakfast was excellent at the Venom Brewery. One suggestion would be to get a professional coffee machine. Found coffee to be sub par for Melbourne standards. Enjoyed tasting some great beers and loved the spicy wings. Will definitely stop in again next time in Melbourne.

Reception staff were terrible at check in time. If you can, avoid checking in at 2pm. There were almost 10 parties waiting to check in and there was no system to identify who was waiting first. There was only 1 staff at the check in table at 2pm. Staff told some patrons to sit and wait while new patrons stood in line. Once they were ready to check someone new in, they called from the line rather than people sitting and waiting. When challenged, the staff were defensive and offered no apology for the error and wait time. Insgead, they argued with the customers and said they weren't aware since they were on their lunch break. The staff did not communicate to each other and no apologies were made.
