We have been to the Sebel a few times . The rooms are very comfortable, staff friendly the only inconvenience is that the car park lift wasn’t working so we had to lug a pram up a few flights of stairs but I’m sure they would have repaired this by now and also the process to get the pool area ( which is great ) is a bit of a pain due to the COVID rules . You need to show i.d at the adjacent building not at the Sebel reception and then go back there to drop the key off , but I’m sure that will change in time . Overall for myself and my young children we enjoy this area of Melbourne as it’s quieter than the cbd and it’s perfect for kids scooter riding around the Docklands .

Dear Sylvana, It is always enjoyable to receive positive feedback. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at the Sebel Docklands. As you mentioned, It is very close to fully opening all hotel facilities like the pool, gym, and others without any extra management/process. I am sorry for any inconvenience. We hope all the hassles caused by Covid-19 will go away in 2022, and your next visit is better than the previous one. We are looking forward to welcoming you soon. Regards, Jamie Wei

Dear John, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at Sebel Docklands. It is great to see your 4-star review on our property, and I also realised that we lost some points on the "Room Bed". Do you mind sharing more about your bed preferences? We will ensure there is a better one for your next stay. Best Regards, Jamie Wei General Manager

Check in was easy, however the room amenities fell a bit short. It was advertised having a fully equipped kitchen which I intended using but there was a lack of crockery, utensils & baking trays available so I was forced to go purchase some elsewhere. Tiles out on the balcony were all loose so felt quite unsafe and the lack of having Foxtel or at least a smart TV to stream to for the kids was disappointing.

It took us 1 and a half hours to get our room key after the 2pm check in time. They advised me that we needed to book the pool on day of checkin only to find out no availabity as everyone had booked prior. Room was dirty only 2 towels for 4 people. Only 1 bowl and 1 cup in kitchen. The only thing they offered was a box of cookies for delaying our check in and giving wrong information. Terrible I wouldn’t stay again
