The hotel was a pleasant surprise with spacious and well-kept rooms featuring a kitchenette. The service was excellent, with friendly and professional housekeeping. The location was convenient, right on the tram line for easy access to the city and St Kilda.
The hotel is in a perfect location with easy access to the city center and St Kilda. The rooms are fabulous, equipped with a convenient small kitchen with a hob. The service was warm and friendly, ensuring a pleasant stay. The proximity to trams and nearby attractions adds great value, though the distance from the main centers could be a minor drawback.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, perfect for my family. The service provided by the housekeeping staff was fantastic. The location was excellent for our plans, and I loved the beautiful views. The dining experience offered Japanese dishes and was delightful. Overall, a great choice for a stay!
