Despite the hotel being overall better than average, there were several issues that made giving the Cystalbrook Kingsley a lower than 5-star rating. Firstly, the Valet service was not a proper valet service. There was no entrance to drive in to and the business was using the reception check-in staff to be the valet. We had expensive items in our car and felt the need to watch over our vehicle until in the end I had to insist that our vehicles were parked. They also charged $50 a night for this service which was well overpriced when compared to other Crystalbrook hotels we had recently stayed at. Furthermore, they also keep your vehicle keys making it more difficult to access the car if required. There were also several cleanliness issues with the room. My wife found old blood stains on the corner of the underlay and the shower base was starting to grow some quality Mould. Our room was on the opposite side to King street directly above a noisy beer garden. This was not the hotels' fault, but something to consider if you are staying at the hotel over the weekend. You could tell that they had tried hard with the interior decorating of the room, but the layout was less than desirable with a two-seater couch, a table, single sitting chair and purpose built mini-bar all jammed into one corner of the room making it impossible to use all the items at once. Overall, our stay was OK but a little bit disappointing after seeing the hotel on TV and being quite excited about our stay.

Don’t bother staying here if you’re driving a bigger car, there is nowhere safe to park. On site parking is 50 dollars per night and only accommodates cars u fee 1.9m. Rooms were nice but quite small. Staff were friendly but not helpful.

We stayed at Crystalbrook Kingsley as we were attending a show at the Civic Theatre next door. This was our second time, and we had fond memories of having pre-show drinks at Rombards on L9, watching the sun go down with amazing views over the harbour. This time we were to be sadly disappointed. After travelling up to L9 and disembarking the lift, we were met with a staff member telling us the bar was closed to hotel guests as there was a private function on! Seriously? We then went down to the G level bar, which was full of hotel guests unable to access the L9 bar and had to sit outside with our drinks - which if the area had atmosphere - we would not have minded at all. Disappointingly, it did not. For an establishment that prides itself on luxury accommodation, this outside area looks like an afterthought - or no thought at all. We thought we would have a post-show drink, only to find that none of the bars in this five-star hotel were open! We thought that if there is a show on at the theatre next door, and quite a few of your hotel guests are there for that show, why wouldn't you accommodate your guests? Underwhelming, oversight, disappointing.
