Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at Imagine Marco. The rooms were gorgeous and very comfortable, although they were not serviced throughout my 11-day stay. The service was a mixed bag, with some staff being great and offering amazing customer service while others were not very helpful or accommodating. The location was great for exploring, with easy access to supermarkets, Southbank, and the city, although it was not the best for just hanging out comfortably. The dining options were convenient, allowing me to make my own continental breakfast, but they were not exactly as advertised. The facilities were decent overall.
The hotel is in a convenient spot, with close proximity to Southgate promenade and Flinders Station. The rooms were spacious and nicely located, though there was a persistent cigarette smell likely from the previous guest. Noise from the Burnley Tunnel traffic could be disruptive for rooms facing the freeway or bay.
The hotel offered a mix of excellent features like clean and spacious rooms, friendly and professional service, while being conveniently located close to city attractions. However, the dining options fell short of expectations and the balcony was disappointing. The value for money was reasonable considering the amenities provided.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was great, close to attractions and the river, but the rooms were poorly equipped and not very clean. The service was friendly overall, but there were some communication issues. The dining options were limited, and the facilities were basic.
The hotel is located right next to the motorway, offering convenient access, but the rooms were disappointing being dirty and very dated. The service was accommodating and friendly, making the stay pleasant. The location was handy to various attractions, but some aspects left room for improvement. The dining experience was not as expected, lacking variety and accuracy. Despite some downsides, the hotel provides good value for money.
The hotel is conveniently located with easy access to supermarkets, cafes, and attractions while offering clean and tidy rooms with a spacious dressing room. The service provided was exceptional with quick issue resolution, though amenities weren't always replenished without request.
The hotel was a mixed experience for us. The rooms, although smaller than expected and not entirely clean, were not a comfortable place to wait in for the two hours. On the bright side, the location was convenient for us, with easy access to Southbank and Flinders station.
