The cuisine at the hotel's on-site restaurant, Straits Cafe, was quite popular with guests who say the food is excellent. Visitors add that The Travellers Bar, the on-site bar, is a nice place to grab a drink in the evening as well.
Visitors point out that the hotel is centrally located to some of the best sights in Melbourne as well as a number of sporting venues including MGC, Rod Laver Arena and Etihad Stadium, which are all within walking distance of the property. In addition to this, Flinders Street Train Station is next door to the hotel.
Guests praise the property's interior decor as being really vibrant and unique. The hotel also embraces its heritage, the building itself is historically listed and was built in 1913, to create a mix of new and old styles.
Several visitors state that the views from some of the rooms can be a bit disappointing as the windows face another building next to the property. Some rooms do have a view of the city or river, but it is wise to request one prior to your stay.
Rooms at the property are a bit small and can leave you feeling cramped according to a number of travelers. A few visitors note that the bathrooms in particular are really tiny.
A few guests point out that in some rooms with a queen bed, the mattress is actually two single beds pushed together to make a larger one. Visitors that noticed this say the two beds pushed together are not all that comfortable make for an awkward sleep.
