We travelled interstate by car and found parking at the hotel easy, convenient and well-priced, although a little snug for our large vehicle! Check in was quick and simple and we were quickly settled in our clean, well-appointed room overlooking the park - a lovely outlook. The buffet breakfast featured an impressive range of dishes and the quality was fantastic. The hotel was conveniently located for our one-night stay, within walking distance West End and the South Bank ferry stop to explore the city.
