☺️ Super clean ☺️ Great location 😒 Breakfast was average with no more option and could be improved, especially for a 5-star hotel. The taste could be better too. 😒 They left a bottle of wine out of the fridge, and we thought it was complimentary but then they told us we had to pay for it if we wanted it

An exceptional place with friendly staff who know exactly what they’re doing. As I checked out, I had to correct myself from “I’d like to check-out” to, “I guess I have to check out” - this property is really quite something. The lowest tier room I stayed in was still exceptionally designed with great amenities, a well-crafted (but slightly leaky on the floor!) shower room, and the internal lighting was wonderfully ambient and flexible depending on the mood for the day. The Dough Egberts coffee machine and pods were high-quality, the bed turnaround service was immaculate, and the letters to let us know when there were technical glitches were a great personal touch. My only suggestion would be to have a bit more of an induction when you arrive. I learnt only of the “bit at the back” by accident - the iPads in each room had information about some of the amenities in the place but didn’t mention the pool, the cute outside seating, and so on. But I will be coming back to stay at another Crystalbrook property the next time I’m in Australia for either work or pleasure.
