Comfortable Sleeping Experience

I had a decent stay at Hotel Causeway, mainly because of its excellent location near shopping and attractions. However, the rooms felt outdated, and I experienced issues with cleanliness and noise. The service was a mixed bag, with some staff being helpful while others fell short. Overall, it met my basic needs, but I expected more for the price. 😊

Rooms

5.0

The room was loft-style with a large number of steps that made nighttime visits to the toilet tricky. The mattress was old and uncomfortable, causing sleepless nights. Noise from the lifts and thin walls added to the discomfort. While the space was sizable, the cleanliness and furniture condition left much to be desired.

Service

5.0

I found some staff to be very helpful, especially Vanessa, who went out of her way to ensure my stay was enjoyable. However, I did have a frustrating experience during check-in with a staff member who was not very accommodating.

Location

8.0

The location of the hotel is fantastic, centrally located and perfect for shopping and dining. It's right opposite David Jones and within easy walking distance to many attractions.

Dining

5.0

Dining options were limited and somewhat uninspiring, with a cold buffet that didn’t offer much variety. I expected better quality and value for the cost.

Facilities

5.0

The hotel had some facilities available, though they felt dated, and the gym was adequate. However, I wouldn't bend my expectations too high in terms of additional perks.

I found Hotel Causeway to be reasonably priced, especially for its prime location near shops and eateries. The rooms were clean but definitely need an upgrade; they felt tired and cramped. The staff were friendly and helpful, making my stay enjoyable despite some drawbacks.

Rooms

6.0

My room was spotlessly clean but quite small for my expectations. While the linens were fresh, the old furniture and musty carpet really impacted the overall vibe.

Service

7.0

The staff were really helpful, especially Vanessa, who went above and beyond to ensure I had a good time. However, nobody informed me about the breakfast that was included or its timing.

Location

8.0

The location is fantastic, right across from David Jones and near many lovely shops and cafes. Even though it’s in a bustling area, it’s surprisingly quiet.

Dining

5.0

Breakfast was okay, but honestly, I expected more. It didn’t quite measure up to other places I've stayed at, and I’d recommend exploring nearby options instead.

Facilities

5.0

Facilities were basic; I found the lack of space for organizing my things and the absence of a microwave a bit limiting, though the internet worked well.

My stay at Hotel Causeway had its ups and downs. The location was absolutely perfect for exploring the city, just steps away from the tram and shopping. However, the room was a bit underwhelming, feeling outdated and cramped (with a strange musty smell). While the mattress was comfortable, I didn't find the overall experience to be what I'd expect of a Four Star hotel. I'd consider staying again primarily for the location.

Rooms

5.0

The room was small and basic, with very outdated furniture that seemed well-worn. It also had a musty smell which was a bit off-putting. I appreciated the good air conditioning, but the room lacked any real space for organizing my belongings.

Service

6.0

The service was a mixed bag. While some staff were quite helpful in directing me to the right transport options, there were others who seemed indifferent and not particularly accommodating.

Location

8.0

The location is honestly the highlight of my stay. It was just a short walk to Swanston Street and very close to transport options, allowing easy access to the city's sights and attractions.

Dining

5.0

Breakfast was quite basic, and I didn't find it worth the price. I know I can do better at home on weekends (I wouldn’t say it was substantial or satisfactory).

Facilities

5.0

Facilities were very limited. I was disappointed to discover that the lift did not stop on my floor due to a laundry issue, forcing me to take the stairs, which isn't great for guests with luggage.

5.0/10

I had high hopes for Hotel Causeway, but my experience was a mixed bag. While the location is fantastic, right in the heart of Melbourne, the overall state of the hotel felt pretty run-down. The staff were lovely and friendly, which was a huge plus, but the rooms could really use an upgrade to match the modern expectations of a boutique hotel.

Rooms

5.0

The room was clean but old and musty, and I found it quite small with barely any space for my stuff. The furniture looked dated, and the lack of basic amenities like a microwave was disappointing.

Service

I didn't dine in the hotel, but the nearby dining options were substantial and satisfying, which added to the overall convenience of my stay.

Facilities

The hotel needs real improvements in its facilities, with the elevator and overall decor feeling outdated. An upgrade would definitely enhance the experience.

5.0/10

My stay at Hotel Causeway was a mixed bag. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of Melbourne, but the comfort level left a lot to be desired. I had issues with the shower temperature and the bed felt too soft with no real support. Overall, it worked for a short stay, but it didn’t live up to the four-star hype.

Rooms

5.0

The room was clean but felt cramped and old-fashioned. There wasn't much space to organize my things and the musty smell gave away the aged carpet. I did notice some wear and tear on the walls and bathroom tiles.

Service

6.0

The staff were friendly and efficient, which was a plus, but they didn't inform me that breakfast was included in my stay. So that was a bit frustrating.

Location

8.0

The hotel’s location is really its strongest point, surrounded by shops and close to all the major attractions. It made getting around the city super easy, especially with the free trams nearby.

Dining

5.0

Dining options were pretty average and definitely overpriced. I found better meals elsewhere and felt let down by what was offered at the hotel.

Facilities

5.0

The facilities are a bit lacking. The lift malfunction added frustration to my stay. It took a bit of effort to get to my room on the stairs. The overall vibe felt a bit run-down.
