Great location!! Park over the road, close to Salamanca, modern, spacious and clean!! Kitchen was basic- micro/convection oven - no cooktop. Needed a small vegetable knife and soup bowls but otherwise very well appointed. Stayed for conference at grand chancellor, easy 15 min walk. Great restaurants nearby, customs house, cargo and ball and chain were great. Noise wasn't a problem. Stayed in executive 1br apartment 209. Huge living area, two tv's. Unfortunately as a twin set up both beds were in the smallish bedroom right near the ensuite, leaving the large living room slightly unused. Beds were very comfy, heating worked well. Would recommend highly.

The hotel was in a handy spot but several issues. First the bed and pillows were extremely uncomfortable.
Secondly there is no parking. We couldn't park on the street nearby because it is all metered so we had to park two blocks away in a multi level for $20 dollars a day
Also having to pay for extra towels is a bit steep too.
This place is ok if you spend your whole time out and about but wouldn't stay if you like to spend time in your room

When we arrived we were a bit confused as to where we could park, as the carpark was full so we had to park in a side street from the hotel.
The receptionist who greeted us was abrupt but informative, however when referring us to a restaraunt to dine out at, grossly underestimated the price ( a seafood restaurant down from Henry Fords) where she claimed a main was $20 when in fact it was $45.
The room had a large lounge area with comparatively very small sleeping area, where they squeezed two single beds.
To access the rooms we had to walk via the carpark with our suitcases.
In our bathroom they gave 1 small bottle of shampoo to share between 2 females over 2 nights, and when we asked for more , we were abruptly given 3 bottles of conditioner. Likewise, they only provided 1 bath towel to share, however they provided us with another on request.
Both issues could have been prevented

Very well located and reasonably prices. About 2 minute walk to Salamanca Place and Markets. Easy walking distance to centre of city, Battery Point and the waterfront. Clean and modern. Rooms are comfortable. The traffic lights outside the hotel has a beeper walk signal for the blind, and beeps all night. Took a little to get used to, but eventually had a great sleep. Being a Mantra, reception is not manned all the time...if you pre-book it is okay as they will leave the key for collection on your arrival, if outside reception hours. If going stanby, check the reception times online to make sure it is manned, otherwise you may be unable to book a room by just dropping in...alternatively ring ahead during reception hours (note: reception only manned in the morning on Sat and Sun).
