    The location is magnificent and unbeatable, within a close distance from Docklands Stadium. What's more, it's in an extra comfy area close enough to convention centre, and everything, like public transport to crown casino to shopping.

    I chose your Hotel for several reasons, your location to where I needed to go (travelled by train), I was able to hop off and on the Collins Street tram to all venues I was visiting. This was really handy for me a I was a solo traveller and I felt secure with the convenience of public transport at my door.

    The selling point for me that it was handy to all locations I needed to go to. My single room was well suited for me as a solo traveller, your cafe was great. I would like to see some sort of bonus (cheaper rate is I use it again).
