Kerri M. Couples - 03/06/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

We arrived as lockdown began in Melb and the staff could not be more accomodating in helping us with our requests.

Dear Kerri, Thank you for your review. I'm so glad the team were supportive in what is such a difficult time as restrictions come into place. Unfortunately we are well practiced at this but I hope we don't have to practice it again anytime soon! I look forward to welcoming you back again soon. [Live Fearlessly] Jamie Capp General Manager

Well located, great staff

Candice Couples - 02/06/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

We were very happy with the location of the hotel and amenities. We were particularly appreciative of the front desk staff who helped us tape up a damaged suitcase before we departed. This saved us a lot of trouble and we were impressed that the staff member went above and beyond (unfortunately we have forgotten her name).

Good evening Candice, I'm glad to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. I was also wondering how you went getting your bag on the flight, I'm thrilled to hear you had no issues getting home. We can't wait to welcome you back next time you stay. Please feel free to contact us directly and we will be sure to add robes to your room. Kind regards, Katie

Well located.

Anonymous Couples - 01/06/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

We enjoyed staying at The Cullen. We were disappointed in the room however. We feel the hotel is a bit “ tired” and was not as clean as we would expect. The staff were very friendly and very helpful which made up for it.

Good evening Caroline, Thank you for your review, we are surrounded by some great restaurants and cafes. I'm sorry to hear about your room. Its always great to hear feedback so we can improve. We hope to welcome you back. Kind regards, Katie

Very comfortable with a great location

I loved my stay

Dear Helene L., Thank you so much for your great review and comments. So happy to hear that you enjoyed your Junior Penthouse Suite and the bed. You would be glad to know that we actually sell the beds as well. Don't hesitate to contact me on this email if you are interested.

Stephen Business - 28/05/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

As always the Cullen presents well with classy rooms and a great location. Unfortunately not having a basic breakfast option is really disappointing. Being told that when you get up you can walk up the road to a café for breakfast is not a great option, particularly in Melbourne's sometimes drizzly rainy weather. Nevertheless I look forward to coming back again one day, ill just be sure to do some food shopping first. Cheers

Good evening Stephen, Thank you for your review, we are so fortunate to have such an amazing team and to be located in the heart of Prahran. I'm sorry we didn't meet expectations for breakfast, we are trying to work out different options at the hotel to better improve our guests experiences. We hope to welcome you back soon. Kind regards, Katie

Excellent location

The Cullen was a lovely place to stay- had all the amenities I needed, was clean and tidy and an excellent location.

Dear Laura, I am thrilled to read you had an enjoyable stay with us, I have to agree with you we really are in an excellent location. We can't wait to welcome you back again to [The Cullen] again soon, until then stay safe. Kind Regards, Kaitlyn Konior Duty Manager

What a fantastic hotel! The little details- bottle of wine on arrival, friendly staff offering local knowledge and a beautiful room. Would stay again anytime. Shoutout to Katie on reception who always had a smile, friendly chat and nothing was too much trouble!

Not a 5 star hotel

Customer review rating 2.0/5

Anonymous Friends - 25/05/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Good location though very underwhelming overall. Not a 5 star hotel. Old decor, felt more like a 3 star. Dirty quilt cover underneath the sheets, no towels in rooms. No room service (Only a few average options via Deliveroo)

Dear Chantel, Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at the The Cullen. I was sorry to read that your experience was not up to our usual high standard. I am following up the issues you listed with our housekeeping team to ensure they are reviewed and corrected to ensure this does not occur again. I thank you for bringing it to my attention. We do have 2 options for room service at the hotel. Hutong Dumpling Bar provides room service at Lunch & Dinner and our partnership with Deliveroo gives us access to some of the best restaurants in the area delivered to our door. Oriental Teahouse is one of my favourites. Thank you again for your feedback and I do hope I have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future. [Live Fearlessly] Jamie Capp General Manager

Lovely stay, enjoyed the area

Dear Malcolm & Cherine, Thank you for your review of The Cullen. I'm glad you had an enjoyable stay and that the hotel and it's location suited your needs. I note your comments regarding the availability of parking, the weekend of your stay was the first time in more than 18 months we've had such constraint in the car park. It's certainly not the norm at the moment! I look forward to welcoming you back again soon. [Live Fearlessly] Jamie Capp General Manager

Mike M. Business - 25/05/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

I love the Art Series hotels, such a refreshing change from stale chain hotels. The Cullen is lovely and in an awesome location right in the centre of restaurants, cafes, bars and shopping,

Dear Michael, Thanks for your of The Cullen. It was great to see you enjoy the vibe. We pride ourselves on being a bit different and I'm glad that resonated with you. The location is not too bad either... [Live Fearlessly] Jamie Capp General Manager

Sven W. Business - 24/05/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

My go to hotel whenever I am in Victoria. Consistently meeting and exceeding my expectations is every way, from the quality and cleanliness of the rooms, the professionalism and empathy displayed by the staff to the on-site dining options (try the Chili Dumplings, trust me).

Dear Sven, Thanks for your fantastic review. We so glad we are able to welcome you back again. It was a long gap that's for sure! Service is certainly our thing and we glad you noticed. See you again soon. Live fearlessly, Jamie Capp General Manager
