“In my opinion, this hotel strikes a balance between its urban setting and a welcoming atmosphere, largely thanks to the natural wood accents used throughout. The Chef's Table adds a unique, interactive element to the dining experience, and its central location, close to Melbourne Central Station, simplifies getting around. It seems like a solid choice for visitors seeking both convenience and a touch of local flavor.”
