We stayed in a two bedroom apartment style room. It was enough space for two adults and two kids. The room was clean and the staff were friendly. Would recommend!

Good location. Not a super modern hotel, but clean and comfy. I would stay here again. It was very easy to navigate the city either by foot or tram from this property. Minor criticism - I dislike having a shower over bath (as a lot of people do), and the fact the bathroom door opens against the vanity. The bathroom size is fine, but the configuration is just a little annoying. Our room size was great and the little kitchenette was very handy. Bed/pillows were comfy. Staff at reception were always pleasant and helpful. The buffet breakfast was okay, but we only had it one morning - went elsewhere the following mornings. If you have to pay for a barista made coffee, it makes sense to find a coffee shop that makes them to your liking, and not pay the extra $s on top of your buffet pricing. Overall, I think property provided what I expected, and as I said earlier, I would stay here again.

We enjoyed our time at Mantra on Russell. We liked the set up of the room and the kids used the pool. The buffet breakfast was good for adults too. A few suggestions to lift rating: clean outside of windows (they were very dirty) add more ‘kid friendly’ options to buffet like pancakes/waffles. Lovely service from front counter staff. Thank you!

Liked: Cleanliness
Fairly average stay. Overnight front desk staff were friendly and the room was set up with sofa bed as requested. The rooms on the Russel St side don’t block out much of the street noise which was more of an issue in a Saturday night, but somewhat expected in the middle of the CBD. The pool area is a bit dated but had a nice big heated spa. The pool towels had run out and after calling it took 45 minutes for more to arrive.

2- star room, 5- star breakfast
Great breakfast, nice staff, 1 bedroom apartment was gigantic. Unfortunately, the rooms are quite shabby, not well cleaned, thread bare towels, etc. And the hardest beds and pillows I've ever encountered so just am uncomfortable stay other than the top rate staff and amazing breakfast, truly best breakfast we had in a month of travels and the gentleman running the breakfast room was amazing.
