Mantra on Russell

222 Russell Street, 3000 Melbourne, Australia –

Buffet breakfast was great. Staff were very nice. Room was clean. Enjoyed the stay.

Judy, Australia

The bar and restaurant staff were wonderful. They made every effort to make you welcome. Happiest bar staff I've met

Sarah, Australia

The double bed was made up of 2 singlebeds pushed togwther which were not comfortable or made for couples to be comfortable. A bit disappointing.

Lauren, Australia

We didn't have breakfast at the hotel. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

John, Australia

staff were very friendly and breakfast was all we desired

Kay, Australia

Everything was very good.The breakfast was excellent and so was the room. It was a bit hot at night even though we turned the aircon cooler.

Tracy, Australia

everything was excellent, the staff were lovely and the room was exceptionally clean

Ciannon, Australia

Lovely kitchen dining area. Clean room. Nice service by staff. Good decoration of interiors.

Jessica, Australia

The room was comfortable and relaxing. The bed was extremely comfortable. The staff were friendly, helpful and professional. The food and coffee from the in house restaurant is top quality. The location is brilliant with Melbourne Central train station and Swinstone Street within a 5 minute walk. It is right next to Chinatown and within walking distance to so many restaurants and entertainment venues. This hotel is a great place to stay, I have stayed at a few hotels in Melbourne but this one is my preferred hotel which I have returned to a few times now.

Andria, Australia

The staff were very friendly and the location was very central.

눉We had trouble with the heating and struggled to get it working and had to call reception, it then took a little while before it worked. Hall ways were cold. We prefer brighter lighting. Didn,t like or expected to have a shower over a bath, for us made it difficult to climb over and also slippery trying to stand in tha bath.
눇Buffet breakfast was great. Staff were very nice. Room was clean. Enjoyed the stay.
