Clean rooms but for a top end one these are not luxurious really. Some of the gift boxes eg vanity set, sewing kit etc were empty. We had a sticking sliding door and the guest ipad had the previous guest still logged in...not a good look. The staff however were amazing, top quality. They spent time talking and not rushing us and couldnt do enough to help us. They all need a pay rise !. Valet parking was a dream and god send in the CBD.. Due to the staff and friendliness i woukd definatly stay there again but wontbwait 15 years between visits.

Front desk and concierge well trained and pleasant

Front desk and concierge staff were professional, friendly and gave very good service. Hats off to the concierge who recognised us after the first car park/retrieve and would immediately grab our keys to retrieve our car even as we approached the desk. Small things but above average. Buffet breakfasts have a few small glitches, but overall okay.
