Traveling from the U.S

The room smelled so bad almost toxic like. I notified Hotels.com and the hotel. They moved us the next day, we had a tour and couldn’t get moved. They moved us to another room, my electric toothbrush went missing. The staff was very nice about the whole thing. But they need some restoration in this place for sure. We have booked 3 Hilton’s in this month long trip. The Hilton @ little Queen street in Melbourne and Georgie, I can’t say enough about that location! Hilton is better than this, please put some money into this other Hilton.

Great to have 24/7 check in as we were an “after hours” check in. Night staff average like they were reading from a script, unable to answer basic questions and just repeated themselves. Room was great but noise coming from corridor in the morning woke us at about 6am which was disappointing.

Room smelt of mould, and you could see mould behind the vanity and in the shower. Really sad as the hotel itself is a lovely old building. I stay here all the time, but it is not what it was pre-COVID.

Poor air conditioning. Room remained at 23°C despite setting controls to Cool to 18°C. Was moved to another room but that made no difference. I was explained that the room was actually at 14°C but display was showing incorrectly as 23°C!!! Who are they kidding? Hot days, stuffy nights, no good sleep, ridiculous excuses!
