Easy check in with friendly reception staff! Comfortable bed especially after a long haul trip. Had the swimming pool to myself in the early morning - a perk of jetlag! Decent location. Would recommend.

Hotel is Ok but lacks the little things that would
Hotel is Ok but lacks the little things that would make it a great hotel , no signage to escalators etc as it is a bit of a maze to navigate the floor plan , would have been good to have a bottle of water in the room and coffee cups that fit in the coffee machine ,the club lounge was basic & didn’t have much variety to choose from ,probably not worth paying the extra money for

Extremely disappointed
The reception area was very disorganised and smelt bad. Didn't feel very welcome and were ignored in favour of a returning guest who after us in the queue. Breakfast was disorganised. Trying to order eggs via an app did not work as the app failed. Was there for a birthday. Were emailed by the hotel that it would be a special stay. No recognition of it was made at all. Extremely disappointed.

Fantastic new hotel
We had a great stay at The Dorset, this is a new hotel and it’s really nice. We will definitely be back to stay. The only disappointment was the club lounge, the video on the in room hotel channel showed some really nice food that we expected to find when we visited in the afternoon, but there was only soft soggy biscuits and no staff in attendance, so that’s the only thing they need to improve.

Melbourne stay
Pleasant stay in a modern, clean hotel. But parking your car in the area can be expensive. It is close to supermarket and amenities.

4/10 Fair

The Included breakfast is a scam
The included breakfast was a scam. They had a seperate room for the “buffer breakfast” with a few cold dishes, two pastries, and two cakes. There was a sit down breakfast area beside it. The parking was valet parking only with a big wait at checkout time to get our car back.

Generally ok
Generally ok, a few things that would have made the stay more comfortable. Pillows were lumpy, there was an infuriating night light under the cabinet (presumably so you could see way to bathroom?) that couldn’t be turned off, and A/C took an hour to start up after activation, not sure why.

Bad Check in Experience
It started very terrible due to check in was so slow maybe we had it timed when staff at the lobby were on lunch break transition and so many patrons all came in at same time and also being 2 hours early from the 3pm check in time. Fena however made it bearable even though she was multi tasking trying her best to help everyone. Even though our two rooms are not ready at the time I checked in, she sent message to housekeeping if they can make our rooms ready and she came back within 10 min confirming they are ready. One other item I did not like is the elevators did not have any instruction where to scan the room card turns out the window is only knee level which makes it hard to see the light turn from red to green. I did not even know that you have to scan and hold the card against the sensor so I was startled because for one I have a big box with me on the cart which makes it harder to maneuver in the elevator and confused why the elevator is not jolding yh3 floor number Im trying to go. I had to get out with my box on a cary and leave it to ask how to make the elevator to move. I looked like an ignorant fool out there. In turn Fena offered me a couple of complimentary drink for the trouble. After that incident everything else went very smooth which helps being close to everything at downtown Melbourne.
