“The location on the Yarra River certainly makes a statement, putting guests across from the Melbourne Convention Centre; inside, workspaces cater to business needs, while on-site dining adds to the hotel's vibrant feel. A dip in the rooftop pool might be refreshing but unheated, and minor maintenance issues can arise, though the friendly service will be apparent. Overall, this is a popular option, a modern hotel with a superb location.”
