Great location, food across the street nice clean and modern building and room, had to park in a local public carpark a street away then onto the road but street parking is free on the weekends. The bed was super uncomfortable and had a big dip in the middle of both sides and definitely needed upgrading but only stayed for 1 night. buffet breakfast was nice, not a massive selection but enough choices to satisfy.

During Check in, i informed the concierge my registration number of car in car park. i paid for the car park fee on check out. leaving the car park we weren't allowed to exit, because the wrong registration number was written down. Now i am also charged with a minibar fee for an item I DID NOT TAKE. Im sorry but i will NEVER STAY HERE AGAIN.

Disappointing stay, unlikely to return

Disappointing check in after booking a king room and being given a room with a double and single, and minimal natural light. No gold benefits were offered until I asked. Sheets were stained and not fitted to the bed properly, and an open bottle of sparkling water was in the fridge. Given this was a $300+ a night room without breakfast, and our family have stayed at this property about twice a year since it opened it was overall disappointing.

Close to hospitals and walking distance to great restaurants - either in the same street or to China Town in the Valley. Bus stop to the city is a short walk that is safe and clear to get to. Staff are helpful, well organised and friendly. Have stayed a few times and will be returning.
