Hidden gem in central Melbourne located at the edge of Chinatown, with convenient access to public transportation and walkable everywhere. Excellent professional and friendly staff. Common spaces are small but well maintained. Our room was clean, well stocked and quiet despite being next to elevator. Only minor problem is parking which are sparse and expensive, been in the central business district. Overall excellent stay and I would recommend highly.

Hi Joseph, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review of your stay with us. I am sorry to hear that your experience with our car park was not satisfactory. We were told very last minute that our on-site car park would be unavailable and as such we were required to move all of our guests to our offsite facility to prevent damage to vehicles parked underneath. I do hope that despite this, you did have a great stay with us and we do look forward to being able to welcome you to us again next time you are in Melbourne.

Absolutely lovely hotel! Location was perfect - right by the Princess Theatre, where we were seeing a show, and a couple of minutes walk from China Town. It was a Saturday night, so there was a bit of noise in the local area, but nothing earplugs didn't fix. The staff were really, really lovely, the room was clean, and the beds were comfortable. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a hotel in the area.
