Nice clean interesting hotel, quiet and has everything you need. Only issue is the "view" having a room on the second floor has a view of the building next door which are apartments, no real privacy had to keep the blinds down.

This place is terrible. One of the worse stays I've ever had at a so called premium hotel. The staff aren't helpful, it's falling apart, nothing works and it's dirty. Go to the Como!

I stay here between 2 to 4 times a year when I come for work trips, and it has been getting progressively worse. This time around there were even more disgusting stains on the chairs, curtains and carpet (they have always been there, but now it's getting worse); lacking supply of the essentials - hand wash, moisturising cream, tea bags. Not once have they cleaned my room during my stay. Walls are paper thin - I could hear one neigbour coughing and the other neighbours talking. I will not be returning, have had enough now. Fabulous location and comfy beds, but it's not enough anymore.

Spacious room, nice patio off my Jr. Penthouse Suite. Great to have self-serve laundry facilities on site. Right across the street from Prahran Market which is amazing. Super Asian restaurant attached to hotel was perfect for Christmas Day. Easy access to tram and bus system. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Wall paper peeling in the elevator lobby on my floor was a small sign of distress

Despite then telling you about the facilities, restaurant, area etc when you check in, they NEVER mention that you have to request your room to be serviced. Until it’s too late and the staff have left. It’s not good enough that it’s on the paper they give you. If they can tell you everything else, they should tell you this.

I love this hotel. It is clean, modern, different and up to date. The bed in my room was supposed to be a king but was two singles pushed together which was uncomfortable. It also felt like the mattress may have been a bit old as it sagged a bit. The aircon was decent for the weather now but may not be enough in summer. It would be much better if the mini bar was immediately available in my room. If it was, I definitely would have used it. If these things are fixed I would always recommend this hotel. All in all it was still a pleasant stay, just not a good sleep

Check in absolutely easy, informative and friendly. Our 2 night stay here was amazing. The bed was so comfortable. Despite being in a busy area (stayed sat and sun night) the outside noise didn’t filter into our room. The room was very clean, spacious and fun - artwork on walls a bit quirky :) Over all no faults and a very pleasant stay.

False advertisement - it was advertised with 2 King beds but turned out to be 1 king bed instead. The hotel staff confirmed that this room does not have 2 King beds and that it was falsely advertised. Not happy when I paid an amount expecting to be 2 King beds but turned out to be 1, would not have booked if it was only 1 King bed.

Really funky and vibrant. Close to everything. The staff were terrific. Parking is limited and you cant book it so call just before you arrive to check availability. Its also a $30 cost which Im happy to pay for secure parking. Great facilities on the property. My only criticism would be the quality of the kitchen, the carpentry is poor, could do with an upgrade. Also, they take a $100 deposit incase of incidentals, doesnt go back into your account for a couple of days which I think isnt great. Minor criticisms really, Enjoyed our night and would stay again.

We love this area in Prahran. First time in this hotel but will definitely rebook. Room was surprisingly large, bed superbly comfortable. Best of all however were the staff. Friendly, helpful and very accomodating; all of them! I had a walking stick, and as I got out of the car to take my bag to the room, two women rushed to help, and escort me to the room. I thought they were other guests; turned out they were the hotel’s Accountants. That’s genuine service.

'Deluxe 2 bedroom apartment dual key' is 2 hotel rooms with a tiny passage between them with a flickering light you can't turn off so you have to close the door. Not that you could tell that from their website. I would have booked directly but it is not fit for purpose... No attempt to sound insulate rooms even through they are clearly exposed to significant noise. Like taking a, albeit very comfy bed, into a nightclub. Would have been somewhat bearable if we weren't travelling with 2 kids under 3. Front desk was like "can we get you some ear plugs?" I offered to try and let them get on the 12 week old... Stay in the Olsen and Blackman regularly for work. They've lost me a customer.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I had stayed at the Cullen about 4 years ago and found the general condition of the property and facilities had deteriorated a lot since then. In particular the gym had broken and missing equipment and was clearly not cleaned daily. The general cleanliness of the rooms was sub standard. Staff were helpful and friendly and the beds very comfortable.
Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023
