I love the fact that Selina has made use of a quirky old building which overlooks Flinders Street station. My room was very clean and with attractive contemporary decor. The location is great, around the corner from Degraves St which is home to great cafes. The only issue I had was that I could not use the 'Google TV'. However, I was not there to watch screens so did not really bother me.

Hi Jo! Thanks for finding the time in leaving us a review! We love that you love the location. We do overlook the iconic Flinders Street Station which is just a marvellous building itself. Yes, we are right around the corner from the "Coffee Capital of Australia" in DeGrave's Street where you can get amazing breakfasts and brunches! Sorry about the TV. We will have a look to see why Google TV wasn't working for you. I hope you got to enjoy our Cinema on level 1. See you again next time!
