Loved it! Def's would love to come back and stay! Staff were friendly, Tv system was a bit *meh* the pool was beautiful at night (cold weather) but still able to have a swim, parking was a little expensive but it is what it is!

Nice place to stay. Convenient to where we wanted to be. I have stayed in hotels before, where. If you arrive early. The reception will do everything to get your room as soon as possible, then ring. But this wasn't the case. A bit disappointing. The restaurant within the hotel seemed to have an attitude issue!

Great location when going to Theatre. So many food options and easy walking to many attractions including Vic Markets. We stayed in a deluxe king room. Pretty small room but was very clean and bed was very comfortable. Like sleeping on a cloud. Bathroom was small and there was not much privacy with the toilet, which would be my only gripe. Loved the contactless check out. Will stay here again
