It was a mostly beautiful and convenient stay. The room facilities were excellent. I question if the pool is actually heated and the spa is nothing short of dangerous - although once safely in, is glorious.

The hotel phone system did not work any time I tried to call Guest Services. There was no in-room menu so had to call the hotel using the external phone number to find out how to access in-room dining. Used the QR code to order room service and couldnt even order any of the items. Was unable to order a hot drink for myself or my 8 yr old son. What sort of hotel doesnt have barista services available? The pool was cold, over-crowded and floors unclean. Very uncomfortable beds and generally super disappointing. Had to leave earlier than expected due to an emergency and the hotel refused to refund 3 x breakfast's although we were not there. Terrible customer service! This is NOT a family friendly hotel and I would not recommend it.

I visited with my niece for her birthday and the staff were amazing. I spoke to Caroline and she assisted with a surprise I had and even left balloons, chocolate and hand written birthday card from several staff for her. I can’t recommend them enough, especially Caroline. Customer service is exceptional.

Overall, an excellent stay! The rooms were impeccably clean and tidy, as always. Although there was a minor issue with breakfast despite paying for this option when booking, however, staff handled it with professionalism and resolved it quickly, minimizing the inconvenience. I’ve been a returning guest several times and highly recommend this as the go-to place to stay when in Melbourne!

We had a great time stayed at Dorsett Melb. The room is big and bathroom shower is clean with strong hot water, I care these very much. If front desk staff could provide smile or friendly customer service while attending to the guests, that would be great.

Good for a family not a couple
The hotel is nice and new but the staff seem disinterested and everything from check in to getting ice delivered to the room takes a long time. Coin operated machines and therefore lots of kids in the lobby takes away any class the hotel could have
