    Lovely historical building, full of charm especially high ceilings, and massive corridors. The pool is not massive but enough to do laps, and there is all you need in the rooms. The location is perfect with free tram on your doorstep and walking distance to most of Melbourne restaurants, bars and attractions

    Denis was really welcoming and engaging. The staff were really helpful. Wonderfully clean and quiet. Didn't expect the incredible sound-proofing and the lovely balcony. We had hoped to use the hot tub, but it was temporarily out of action. The Gaylord restaurant is world class; Indian, fresh, innovative, delicious! We plan to come back with a big group. The hotel's location is fantastic: 2 tram lines at the doorstep.

    Absolutely nothing to dislike

    This was my second stay here, and it was just wonderful. Denis is a fabulous host, very charming and delightful and remembers all the smallest details. The other staff are fantastic too, though I didn't interact with them beyond a friendly "hello" whenever I came and went. The facilities are great, and "the most expensive bed in the hotel" was utterly sublime! My huge room was well stocked with a library of books, which had everything from classic novels to biographies to gardening guides. Room 439 is my absolute favourite now! I'm looking forward to returning again soon. (The "lobby" photo included here is of the books)

    Old world charm right in the centre of Melbourne

    This place oozes old world charm from the moment of arrival. I left my bags at the hotel as I arrived before check in. They took them up to my room and called me when the room was ready. When I arrived in my room, there was a card welcoming me to the hotel and some chocolates. Such a lovely touch. I loved my large room with its kitchen, dining area and lovely bathroom. The bed was super comfortable and I loved being able to open the windows and go out on the balcony. Even though it is located in such a busy area, the noise was usually well-muffled by the double glazing. Don’t forget to visit the Grand Staircase.

    fabulous, friendly and genuine staff. great size rooms with king beds, in a fabulous old building with old fashioned high ceilings.personal touches - handwritten notes, fresh flowers, little treats aimed to please and the music as you enter reminds you of the grandeur of the building

    There were no power outlets at desk, surprisingly not uncommon. There was an extension cord/power strip near the TV which I repurposed. Don't recall any other issues.

    Room was spacious and 6th floor was quiet. Many units in building are regular rentals but this was only apparent if someone was moving in/out. Laundry was bonus.

    The train line running behind our room, still quite noisy even with the extra thickness on the windows.

    Nice big room on three levels with high ceilings, very comfortable seating and bed. A nice touch was a hand written card welcoming us to the hotel and some Lindt chocolates left in our room. Enjoyed the pool and spa. The location was close to most things we wanted to do and see.
