City Square Motel

My wife and I stayed here for six nights at the end of February. After hours check in was simple and quick. Good, free wifi, clean and well serviced. Very comfortable bed. Friendly, helpful and efficient staff. Central to everything with free tram network right outside the door. In very close proximatety to restaurants, pubs, shops and supermarkets. Great value for money and I would highly recommend this accommodation to friends and family.

The staff are excellent. The room was a good size. A bit noisy sometimes because of outside drilling. An easy tram ride from southern cross station. A few minutes to flinders street and the river. Lots to do in the very busy area. The cleaning could have been a bit better. I would recommend and stay here again

Always a great stay for the price when only in and out...great location

For the price, it was surprisingly decent. Amenities were clean, modern and satisfactory. Location was very convenient and central to shopping, Fed Square, teams stops and Flinders St train station. It is a pokey entrance to the reception and quite obscure. Note the reception opening and closing times. The only issue I had was the lock on the door was not on up to standard with other accommodation and could do with upgrading. These days, one would expect more than just a bolt to lock the door. But I would definitely reconsider for overnight stays.

The good: hotel reception was amazing. Friendly and helpful in answering all our questions. Housekeeping service was provided every day with an added bonus of biscuits and coffee/tea in the room. This was an unexpected surprise. Location was perfect for everything we needed. The bad: as others have mentioned the noise level is high. The dinging of the trams kept my partner up most of the night. Although that's to be expected on Swanston street (please note cars/buses/taxis cannot drive on this street as it is tram only- you will have to walk to the corner to get dropped off or picked up). But the noise level inside the hotel was also high. For instance we could clearly hear others drop something, talking on the phone, etc in their rooms above us. Rooms are a bit cramped if you have two beds.
