Stayed at this hotel for two days. The staff were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout my stay, and the overall price of the room was reasonable.

However, the rooms are quite old and need renovation. The room felt stuffy and poorly ventilated, with very little fresh airflow. There was also an unpleasant smell in the room, which made the stay uncomfortable.

The breakfast was particularly disappointing for the price the selection was very limited, mainly consisting of scrambled eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, dried bacon, and some fruit. Considering the cost, it did not provide good value for money and was not worth the price charged.

While the friendly staff were a highlight, improvements to the rooms and breakfast offering would greatly enhance the guest experience.

Easy to check my family in and out, we arrived late in the evening and had a late check out the process was fast. Parking isn't great, very tight squeeze. Staff is very friendly. Outdoor pool was great and enjoyed that even though it's outside, its heated. Have all ready booked to stay again, due to this place being walking distance, very close to Aami park and the Melbourne Cricket Grounds.

We booked for 2 adults & 1 child, but when we arrived, there was no 3rd bed, nor was there even 3 towels in the room on check in. When we spoke to reception about why there wasn't a third bed, I was told \"we don't make assumptions.\" Not sure who expects 2 adults to sleep in the same bed of a 6 year old...
The rollaway that was eventually delivered had a stained doona and no doona cover (we only discovered this after the second night - our son was in contact with the stains whilst sleeping).
We had a few other 'minor' issues, just really took the polish of a wonderful Anzac Day weekend in Melbourne.
Whilst the location is amazing for events at the MCG, the hotel is aged and in need of a facelift, and not worth the premium being charged.

The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the location was very convenient with easy access to attractions and public transport. The buffet breakfast was also very good with a nice variety of options.

Unfortunately, our initial room had a few issues — the toilet and lights were not working. The staff responded quickly and moved us to another room where the amenities were in good working order, which we appreciated.

One downside was that we could hear trains throughout the night, which made it a little difficult to sleep. Overall, it was a comfortable stay with helpful staff, but the train noise may be something to consider if you’re a light sleeper.

The hotel served its purpose to stay overnight. There was no house keeping so we did not have refreshed towels, replacement coffee pods or milk.

There was no communication advising of this.

There is no dining or food options other than 4-7 on certain days. Breakfast is accommodated for at a charge.

There are other more economical options with more facilities suited to our preferences.

All the hotel staff were very friendly and helpful — that was the best part of my stay.

However, the biggest disappointment was the towels. After showering, I noticed white fibers or lint sticking all over my body. It made me feel even dirtier after drying off. I think it’s time the hotel replaces all the towels, as they seem very worn out.

Also, the smell from the toilet was awful — honestly, it was nauseating.

Aside from these two issues, I was satisfied with everything else during my stay.

Although close to the trains it is a quiet area. The rooms though are worn, carpet coming up, dirty bath etc. The lounge really needs replacing as you just fall to the middle. The bed was comfy.

They didn’t tell me that their restaurant wasn’t open for dinner & they didn’t even open for breakfast on Monday or Tuesday & as I was staying on a Monday that was very inconvenient & there were NO places nearby to get any food which made it difficult for me at 83.

Whilst everything was in order and the night view was lovely, the closeness to the main train line was unavoidable with late night freight trains and regular trains meaning there was not any relief from this except in the bathroom.
Very convenient 5-10 min walk to MCG.
Difficult after parking the car (which cost an extra $50 for the space overnight and I negotiated as $35 the next day) to extract oneself from the car as the car spaces weee so small. I fact I had to pull myself out of the driver’s seat and leave the car via the passenger front door.

Easy walk to Rod Laver

Great place to stay when attending an even at Rod Laver Arena, quick and easy walk back , tram from the city was easy to navigate and then a short walk to the hotel from there even with our suitcases it wasn’t a problem. We stayed in a 1 bedroom. Room had everything we needed , only concern we had, was our door could use some maintenance as the security lock was broken but the main part still locked. Outdoor pool was clean, tidy and surprisingly lovely and warm. Reception staff were fantastic. We payed extra for the convenience of having the Buffett Breakfast on site as there is not much in the way of restaurants and shops around the area, next time I’d give that part a miss as the food wasn’t of a great standard , bacon was like USA bacon style, fatty and not much meat on them. Scrambled Eggs seemed to have been sitting there for a while even though we ate 30 mins after opening time. But the tomatoes and hash browns were ok. A few pastries as well as fruit and cereal were also available. Everything was presented in shared glass containers and not in individual packs included spreads like Vegemite and Jam, which felt very unhygienic for everyone to be dipping their cutlery in. There was also juice and a coffee machine available. I would absolutely stay again but next time not bother with the breakfast.

We booked this hotel because of its proximity to the AO and thought being a Mantra and “4” stars it would be nice. This is supposed to be a 4 star hotel and it certainly is more suited to be called a motel than hotel and at best a 3 star hotel. If you want a mini bar there is nothing in the room. You need to either call reception and then go down to reception yourself and collect or use a QR code to order and collect. There is no room service and the cafe/resteaunt isn’t open for anything other than breakfast. We tried to book breakfast and was told it’s closed because of the public holiday. We then ordered a couple of drinks to take to the pool and was told that we need to go past the gym on our way to the pool to collect paper cups to pour our drinks into. The room itself is dated however, the roll away bed provided for our son looked like a 1900’s psychiatric hospital bed, the tv has no streaming service ability so you can only watch local channels and the appliances are very old. When we returned to our room after the AO we put a couple of items in the washing machine and went to bed. In the morning when I opened the washing machine lid I was disgusted and dry reaching. The smell of stagnant water and mould was disgusting. I reached into take out the items and they were soaking wet and I had to hand wringe out the stagnant water. They waived our parking and 3 drinks charge for the issue but we would never stay here again. Definitely not a 4 star hotel!
