We have stayed multiple times at Mantra on Russell. It’s conveniently located to so many restaurants, Chinatown and shopping. Although it says “daily housekeeping” in the services provided, this was not included. But we were able to request fresh towels each day which more than made up for that. We will definitely continue to stay here again during our visits to Melbourne in the future. Keep this wonderful hotel going!

I stayed and was put into one of the accessible rooms on level 6. This in itself was not an issue apart from the amount of water that’s left on the ground after a shower. The shower curtain is far too small for its purpose. Not sure who designed this but it’s not appropriate and allows for water to flood the whole area. The rooms are right next to the pool and gym entrance on level 6. The constant noise of the gym/pool door banging in the wall is annoying to say the least. Up to 9:30 or so at night and then from 6am you can hear it. This is poor design and should have been considered when they put the doors there. I have stayed here before but to be honest it’s now run down and amenities pretty poor for a hotel that is supposed to be of this standard. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Negatives: 1.) We booked 2 one- bdr. apartements with balconies, however, not one chair or outdoor table on these balconies. Totally empty. The idea was to sit in the sun sometimes abs get some fresh air. This is why you hook a balcony and ist more. 2.) no recycling bins in any of the 4 units in our group, though signs how much the hotel tries to recycle. 3.) breakfast was good, the coffee machine was the cause of much frustration with lots of guests. Positives: Very friendly staff, from the reception to the staff in the breakfast are, always helpful and service with a smile. Thank you!

Good location. Not a super modern hotel, but clean and comfy. I would stay here again. It was very easy to navigate the city either by foot or tram from this property. Minor criticism - I dislike having a shower over bath (as a lot of people do), and the fact the bathroom door opens against the vanity. The bathroom size is fine, but the configuration is just a little annoying. Our room size was great and the little kitchenette was very handy. Bed/pillows were comfy. Staff at reception were always pleasant and helpful. The buffet breakfast was okay, but we only had it one morning - went elsewhere the following mornings. If you have to pay for a barista made coffee, it makes sense to find a coffee shop that makes them to your liking, and not pay the extra $s on top of your buffet pricing. Overall, I think property provided what I expected, and as I said earlier, I would stay here again.
