We really enjoyed our stay, reason for lower property rating is because of the shower too hot and having to climb over bath. Also massive stains on carpet and in fridge. Someone would have been charged to get this cleaned or replaced and it has not been done. We did have a lovely stay, joining rooms was also great.

Location of the property is great with the amazing views of the lake and The Remarkables. It’s also walkable to the city centre. However, cleanliness is very poor, including the housekeeping staff. It’s bit noisy too.

Fantastic location which made walking into town very easy. Parking on site was great! Staff were super friendly and helpful. The bar on 6th floor was lovely great $2 oysters and lovely cocktails! Stunning lake views. Breakfast buffet was lovely with very friendly chefs happy to assist. The only negative was we had a family room with 2 double beds as we were with our daughter and both beds could have done with new mattresses. Overall a wonderful hotel and would definitely stay again!

We had a lake view, which was beautiful. The room is small with no storage for clothes/accessories, but we only stayed one night. I would not stay here on an extended stay unless you are OK with living out of your suitcase in a small room. The breakfast buffet, which was included, was excellent. The location perfect, in walking location to restaurants and shopping. Overall, a good location for a stopover.

Says soundproofed, instead our room had a door joining the neighbouring room with a crying child. Room was run down in a big way. Shower was so small you had to shimmy to turn around and wash your back. Drain was broken and you'd kick it around with every movement you made. 4 star it is not, super disappointed given the price. Avoid unless it's your last option.
