Spent 4 nights there while visiting family nearby. Great spacious room. Clean large bathroom. The bed and pillows were super comfy and my husband and I had some of the best nights sleep we've had in a long time. A microwave should be standard, not a luxury and was disappointed not to have one in such a spacious room. They have room service but one shouldn't feel they have to order because they cant heat up a cheap frozen meal from the supermarket. No knives and forks and no plates either. If you staying 1 night it wouldn't be an issue but we stayed four nights and for that reason alone we will not stay there next time as we really found it very inconvenient.

Very pleasant old worldly rooms and the other hotel facilities (Bistro and Bar) were good. Parking acceptable. Accommodation was quiet although the hotel is close to a major very busy airport. Overall ambience was nice. On the slightly negative side was the $100 bond required on check-in and the fact that rooms are not serviced at the weekend. Finally the complementary breakfast was very very basic, but was of course 'complementary' so I guess I should not complain.

Loved our stay, good location.

Stayed one night. Room super clean, loved decor, bed was comfortable and we had a peaceful sleep. Location is great, 5 mins walk and you also get food. A few minutes drive and you get much more food, the Botanical Gardens and Cranbourne shopping centre. Continental breakfast was complimentary and they had a variety of spreads. Generous breakfast. We had lunch and dinner in the hotel bistro. Food was delicious, great choice , great service. The manager is such a humble and friendly man. He goes around and sees to it that everyone is happy and satisfied. He even helps to bring the food to the table, that's so sweet. Will be back.
