Mantra on Russell

I really can't fault this hotel. We arrived at 1am and were greeted with the sweetest receptionist, who gave us all the hotel information and booked us in for breakfast the following morning. The 24-hour reception made our late arrival so stress free. We booked a 1 bedroom apartment with a fold out sofa for our 16 year old daughter, which was already made up for her. . We were so impressed with the layout, cleanliness, and how roomy it was! Couldn't fault it. First impressions lasted for our 3 night stay! Both the beds, (fold out and king) we're comfortable. We didn't use the kitchen, but everything was there if you wanted to have a night in! The pool was refreshing after our big days of shopping and adventures! The hotel itself is walking distance to everywhere we want to go. We had a pleasant 20-30 minute steady walk to Southbank for dinner one evening, we walked 25 minutes to Southern Station outlet, then another 5 minutes over the foot bridge to Marvel Stadium. We wandered Chinatown and Bourke Street.mall , just a block away. Location was ideal for us. There are options like trams, ubers etc.. the city tram was always so busy so we opted to just walk as it's doable! Amazing Thai massage right next door that was open late, so we treated ourselves after being on our feet all day! We would absolutely recommend this hotel to everyone we get the chance to and will most definitely be returning! We're already excited to bring our 2 younger children with us next time and will 100% stay here again for our city adventures. All the reception staff we met during our stay were so kind and accommodating. They even have scales in the lobby, so we could weigh our bags to add extra baggage for our flight! This was easily and happily accommodated to at midnight.

The location is very central and convenient for staying in the CBD. The one bedroom apartment is generous in size and well appointed. I was on the 18th floor and had plenty of natural light which can be hard to find in Melbourne. The staff were welcoming, courteous and helpful.

Everything was perfect apart from the spa, we booked your hotel because i used to come with my husband. I came this time to reflect on memories of the times we shared there at mantra on russel.my husband passed away in march this year.

Our room was very comfortable, huge bathroom, quiet and with great views. The staff were very helpful and understanding. The location was perfect, two main tram lines at either end of the street and walking distance to the main shopping area. Would absolutely recommend this place to stay.

Perfect location and staff were friendly and accommodating. It was clean and the cleaning staff were lovely. Apartment was lovely and spacious. It had a stove and had an oven. The apartment didn’t have a Microwave unfortunately ..But overall everything was lovely. Our phone in the room didn’t work.. we told reception and they said Telstra was going to fix it in 2 days.. We were there for 6days but it wasn’t fixed. We mentioned it again when we checked out so hopefully it would be fixed before the next person had that apartment.
