    Perfect for what we needed, which was somewhere to eat and sleep before our long drive home to Vic.

    The pillows were a bit high. Hubby was sad there were no biscuits to have with his coffee :)

    I was tired so wished there was room service, but the restaurant was good too.

    The fridge in the room didn't work.

    Locatrion was great and the mini museum in the foyer was alos very good. We had dinner and breakfast in the restaurant and it was well priced and beautiful food. Best steaks we have ever had. Also the scambled eggs for breakfast were outstanding and not the mushy rubbish most try to serve up.

    as above, disappointing .

    Breakfast was good until Monday morning on departure when the staff would not allow me to have continental, said only option was a full breakfast which I did not want a cooked breakfast. Seemed very disappointing when they already had all the continental breakfast items available.

    The bed was so soft, my 1st thought in the morning was that this must be what clouds feel like to sleep on.

    From a point of view as a race fan and not a hotel guest- This is world class. No need to elaborate.

    Monday morning before checking out could not pay for a continental breakfast, staff wanted to charge cost of full breakfast 27$ as they said it was a buffet but it was not different to every other morning we ate breakfast. Disappointing.

    Breakfasts were great

    It always feels like you have to walk a couple of kilometres to get to your room (exaggerating a bit, but the corridors are so long!).

    Nice big bed, rooms are always clean and nice.

    The rooms were a little small for the larger person, but well set out. It would have been nice to have had some cold water in the fridge and ice in the freezer. It was quite warm weather.

    Breakfast was delicious and a great variety. The beds were super comfortable. Would be awesome on a motorsport event. Being right above the pits would be exhilarating. Noisy, but exhilarating.

    The bath towel was well used and had a hole in it, given it was only for one night I didn't worry about it too much. Door to bathroom was only a sliding door and doesn't give full privacy if needed. Hotel was mostly empty, however, we were given a room very far away from reception.

    Was a stopover on the way to Melbourne. Glad we chose this over some cheaper accommodation. We were pleasantly surprised and would definitely stay there again. Buffet breakfast was ok. The kitchen was quite happy to accommodate my additional request due to dietary requirements
