Enjoyed my stay here. (Thanks for the upgrade as a Platinum Ambassador member - much appreciated). It's a historic building and the rooms could probably do with a bit of a refurbishment, but they're very clean, comfortable and it's got a lot of charm and the staff were lovely (particularly Aaron on reception). Bed was really comfortable and the shower was good too. Location is excellent. The only downside experienced was housekeeping... After servicing the room (which was after 3pm - very late), bathroom amenities (including tissues) weren't restocked and we had to call down to get supplies. Also, I'm not sure if there's a "turn-down" service, but came back to the room after dinner and the curtains had been closed but nothing else had been done to refresh the bed or the room. Very odd! Minor points but just thought I'd mention them for feedback. Still enjoyed the stay overall.

Overall not what you may expect from an Intercontinental experience elsewhere so be prepared. I’m a top tier member and stay at many Intercon properties. Took three requests to get a twin booked room instead of a double that was supplied for the kids with the housekeeping finally separating the double. Rooms are a bit tired and there are no views and it’s barely 5 star. All is clean though and staff did try ….just could bring it together for a polished experience. Great location but have stayed at better for the price in Melbourne.

I wished I didn’t buy club access. 1.There’s no exclusive check-in/out service provided, told by one of the club staff. 2. No more 3-tier-stand desserts during afternoon tea, and only 2 kinds of canapés were provided during happy hours(served when ordered, chances of insufficient kitchen supply) 3. Staffs in club lounge were great, but services from other staffs varies greatly, guessing they were just all very busy. Overall, this is a beautiful hotel but short of service.

My husband & I stayed here for a few nights before our honeymoon! The staff are incredible! Highly recommend giving the bar a visit when Thomas is working, he is so lovely & provides a lot of knowledge of local restaurants, etc. The location is great as well as you're in walking distance to many restaurants & shops! Highly recommend the restaurant Salted Egg, which is a 1 minute walk. Overall, our stay was amazing & the staff were absolutely fantastic!

Cannot express my satisfaction with this place enough. We're Intercontinental Ambassadors and we were looked after so well by all staff. Great room upgrade to a suite on Collins street. Club Continental upgrade and new location is superb. Highlight of the trip was Minnie and the team in the lounge. Nothing was too much trouble and all done with grace and charm. She's a keeper. Overall a great stay and won't look anywhere in future. Also available with Qantas FF Points
