Hotel Grand Chancellor Melbourne
Room very clean, great Brekky however, only one available lift which was insufficient due to number of guests. Very long waits. Also pool wasn’t available due to works being undertaken. Once these issues sorted, it will be amazing, great central location & would recommend.
