Anonymous Families - 09/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I have been staying at the Cullen, my favourite Melbourne hotel intermittently since it opened. After having our special requests for a bath in our suite initially denied by a disinterested booking agent ( I always book direct but it seems that an agency now handles bookings and this was not a satisfactory exchange for me, and for once, I insisted), we were delighted to be welcomed by the Manager and to have the required bathtub for our mini family reunion.

Dear Karen, I am pleased to hear we were able to turn a bad booking experience into a wonderful stay with us here at [ The Cullen], we believe in doing the small things and doing the small things right. I look forward to sharing your kind words to my team , as this will really serve as great encouragement for them to keep doing what they do best.

great reception team and extremely helpful maintenance - she had a massive task to remove the toilet as I dropped a sentimental bracelet behind it through the crack of the glass shelf. She was extremely helpful and went above and beyond to help me get it back - a massive shout out to her - I think it was sarah? Maintenance woman.

Dear Rebecca, I am thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay with us , and you came back a second time not for business, we must be doing something right. I will make sure I pass on your kind words to Sarah we are extremely lucky to have her on our team she certainly does go above and beyond for our guests.

Customer review rating 4.6/5

John M. Couples - 07/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Staff were good but the room was way over priced and if we were to stay again we would take a basic room and try and get a deal. The bathroom although adequate was small for a room at nearly $300 per night. The lighting system was frustrating.
