Front desk staff were excellent. Being able to book a quick arriving taxi at front desk was great. The mirror glass on the building across lane meant people in surrounding rooms could see into your room and vice versa, especially at night with lights on, so you had to close curtains.

Beautiful Hotel
Spent a night, from the moment we arrived the reception treated us with a welcoming smile. Very quick check in and was given clear instructions on how to get in and out of the hotel. Once we walked inside our room we felt at home, very clean and all essentials provided (tea, coffee,milk, bathroom essentials). Will definitely go back.

Good stay
Fully equipped one bedroom apartment in a quiet location. It is a short walk to the Shrine of remembrance and botanical garden. Appreciate that there is onsite secured parking in a multilevel car park even though the parking space is a bit tight. Room itself is a bit dated compared to other Quest apartments I’ve stayed at.
