The administration seems slow. The safe was not working in my room, the front desk kept saying would send maintenance for it. But it was never repaired and replaced. At the end, they would say oh, most safes in this hotel were not working, you can put important in their safe. Why din't they say it at the beginning. The facility is also old.

Gorgeous architecture, in need of some refurbishing, average service, and extremely thin walls. Average experience, nothing spectacular. Is it 5 stars? Imo, not quite.

Nice hotel, comfy beds, little tired.
Overall nice stay - good location, the staff are friendly - the rooms are a little tired, could do with a bit of a freshen up, the rooms are not quite the five star you might expect. But the beds are comfy and sleep was pretty good - albeit, don't expect a sleep in, as the breakfast restaurant is right outside the windows.

Central location with most attractions in walking distance. The fre tram service around the Central Business District is nearby and runs frequently. For sports fans, the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) and the Rod Laver Arena are also nearby. Excellent breakfast but would recommend dining elsewhere for lunch or dinner as the menu is a bit limited and was not to my taste.
