The hotel was good. It was very quiet. The only negative was no room housekeeping was done for 1 day and my room had no body wash left. However once I notified reception they quickly resolved it.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication
The first room was clean but very small. The door to the bathroom and the door to the shower collided and you couldn’t easily place a bath mat on the floor. We stayed there again two nights later. The second room was more spacious and had a lovely view but we needed to ask for the air conditioning to be turned on and for a remote to operate the TV. The restaurant was closed in the evening and breakfast was expensive and minimal. It felt like the property had gone into skeleton staff in early January. I enjoyed using the gym.

This was my first stay at the Mantra MacArthur. It was great value for money, walking distance to Ainslie and Braddon, and next to a light rail station to access the city. My only quibble is that there was no table for setting up a laptop for those who need to. I'll stay here again.
