Lynda V. Families - 10/04/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

See you soon!

Hotel needs a. Huge clean and upgrade to be rated 5 Star - the restaurant should be open always in a 5 star Or at least be notified it’s not when it’s closed before arrival

Customer review rating 2.0/5

Justine D. Families - 09/04/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Curtains were brown and frayed, beside tables were disgusting with old stains, windows were filthy, couldn’t find the jacuzzi, guest service TV menu was not user friendly and don’t contain all the details usually found in a hard cover version, pillows were terrible, breakfast starts too late, water temperature was not hot enough for a bath, no room service menu and when We asked for one we were brought a breakfast menu. Overall run down and very tired hotel - very disappointing

Best pool and location

Customer review rating 4.0/5

Jasmin Families - 08/04/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

The Olsen is well located on Chapel St with a heap of activities on your doorstep. My kids thought the pool was brilliant and we also loved the artwork on display. Staff were friendly and professional and had a low-key approach to service. The room was clean and mostly well maintained and was perfect for the family eith a kitchenette and rooms separated by a sliding door. There were a few maintenance issues in the room such as mould on the shower ceiling and an led light that constantly flickered.

Disappointing

Customer review rating 1.5/5

Tristan K. M. 0. Couples - 08/04/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Stayed 1 night with my wife as a mid-week break. Hotel general areas are tired although rooms are nice. Dinner was disastrous - paid $49 for 350g rib eye with roast potatoes (x2), which was cold, small and potatoes were boiled. Sent it back with the waiter saying 'it's not my fault, it's the chef, and we do have a function on. Waiter at first said potatoes were roasted but then admitted they weren't on closer inspection. Replaced with a better meal but 1 steak was raw inside, so sent back for further cooking. No loo roll in toilet - had to use a face-mask instead!

Perfect location, however breakfast disappointing

Customer review rating 3.5/5

Peter Friends - 07/04/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Great location and hotel, however breakfast was very disappointing. Came out cold, or not edible.. for the amount you pay for the hotel you would expect it to be a whole heap better.

Nice facilities but average service

Customer review rating 2.0/5

Sarah-jayne T. Solo - 07/04/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

My room was nice but the room had incorrectly been booked twice which I clarified upon check in. I then received three calls at 1am as it was believed I had not shown up for my booking. One call from a mobile and two from the The Olsen land line. Disappointing service...

Terrible experience

Customer review rating 0.5/5

Stefan Families - 07/04/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Zero housekeeping meant we had to take towels from the pool, clean our own room and make do without tea bags, soap etc. A blind fell down and just wasn't fixed. We called three times and there times we were promised someone from housekeeping would do their job. But it never happened.

Great location but attention to detail lacking

Customer review rating 3.0/5

Tony Business - 07/04/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

I've stayed at many of the Art Series hotels over the years, but the overall standard has dropped recently since the ACCOR takeover. For this most recent stay, not only was the bin not emptied when I checked in, but there were several light bulbs not working.

Great location and facilities

We really enjoyed our 2 night stay. The rooms were beautifully decorated, the breakfasts were delicious, the pool was lovely and we didn’t want to leave. Such a great location too.

Parking is terrible

Customer review rating 1.0/5

Michael Business - 06/04/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

For a hotel in the city that advertises it provides car parking, when I arrived I was told they had no parking. Was told to park down the street in a parking station. The next morning, the parking stations roller door was down and I couldn't get my car out. Almost missed my flight. They also have a strange clientele. A lot of young people coming and going all night which seems very suss and there seemed to be a dance party going on in on one of the floors. I won't be staying here again.

Good stay!

Customer review rating 4.5/5

Louise Families - 06/04/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Great stay! Lovely clean room. Great staff. Not a lot of seating around the pool and there were no towels when we went down at 4pm.. but they restocked shortly after. Coffee machine was lovely to have. Balcony would have been nice but i don't think any rooms have one. Requested a cot for my son. It wasn't in the room when we arrived, but as soon as i mentioned it to reception, one was brought up immediately.

Weekend Stay

Simon P. Friends - 06/04/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

I messaged the hotel through Booking.Com more than 24 hours before check-in to ask if we could change the room and if the beds in our suite were in different rooms. We recieved no response. Upoon check-in we here issued only one keypass card and wehen we asked for an additional keypass card were told due to being fully booked there were none available, presumely the hotel only has one keypass card for each room? The room itself was nice and the location for us was great.

Well located and great place too stay
