Very clean, comfortable King bed, great location, walking distance to everything, train station, CBD, Southbank, casino!!
AustraliaI really like the view from my room and also the location of the hotel. It's in the city and just a 2 minutes walk from the cross station and is close to public transport which makes it really accessible. Most of the tourist attractions were close to the hotel such as the sealife aquarium, Yara river cruise.
AustraliaGreat location for when i come to visit from Swan Hill
AustraliaI just feel really good time with the family of great southern hotel is comfortable
AustraliaWhen we arrived a little early than planned, we were greeted by the most friendly team at the front desk, whom gladly took our bags into a holding room until our check in was ready later that day. In fact it was the best service I have had in many years, a credit to you all
AustraliaLarge room, clean, restaurant, staff. Localised near the railstation and bus to reach the airport. Lots of food is provide in the station: supermarket, coffee bar, snaking... Hotel open 24/24
Vanuatuwe grabbed an awesome deal 89$ for one night in what sounded like a very basic room but were pleasantly surprised when we were upgraded to a bigger room with a TV and tea & coffee facilities. We only needed somewhere to sleep but I think it was great value for money. The only downfall was a drunken fight outside the window that started at 4-5am, however that can’t really be helped with the central city location. Bed was comfy and as an ex-housekeeper myself I could tell the cleaning staff do a fabulous job at this hotel. Front desk staff were very chirpy and pleasant both at 11pm at night and the next lot at 7am. Thank you for the upgrade & service you gave us nervous kiwi travellers in the middle of a big city!
AustraliaThe location was great - right at the center of the city. Staff was very friendly and the hotel room was superb.
FranceGreat location by Southern Cross Station. Room size adequate, larger than normal bathroom. Bed was good enough, not great. Didn't pay that much; fair deal.
United States of AmericaVery close to Southern Cross station, easy to get around.
