SERVED ITS PURPOSE I was in Melbourne on a business trip, seeing customers in the Forest Hill area. The Canterbury Hotel was as described / appropriately priced / and quite comfortable for a 2 night stay. Spacious bathroom. Quieter than I thought it would be. Good WiFi. Easy parking. Aircon is old and clunky. Bed wasn't the softest. TV is quite small. Desk chairs are horribly uncomfortable. It's not The Ritz. But they don't price as though it is either...

Everything was very nice and i had a lovely stay with my partner for the weekend the only down side to it was we paid to have breakfast included af 7 am and it was never ready at 7 we had to wait 30 mins for a hot breakfast the first day we had just cereal and toast and hot tea and coffee but the hot food didn’t come out until 7:35am and then the next morning at breakfast same thing. Maybe don’t tell guest that breakfast is at 7 when really hot breakfast doesn’t come out until 7:30am.

Best value for money

This was second time we stayed here. They upgraded our room to spa room because our standard room somehow not quite ready. The room quite old but what matters is clean and comfy. I did not expect much for the breakfast but actually was good. Definitely best value for money and will not hesitate to come back in the future.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
My recent stay at your hotel presented several significant concerns regarding the overall guest experience. Upon arrival, the primary entrance from which we entered lacked clear signage directing guests to elevator access for the second-floor reception. This necessitated carrying heavy luggage up the stairs. Even when contacted by phone, reception did not proactively guide us to an accessible entrance with a lift. The room assigned was located directly facing a main highway, resulting in considerable noise disturbance throughout our stay. When I requested a quieter room, the receptionist was initially resistant. Although I agreed to pay an additional charge for an alternative room on the opposite side of the lobby, I was then informed that a change was not possible without paying for both rooms, as I had briefly used the toilet and housekeeping had departed for the day. This policy felt inflexible and did not prioritize guest comfort. Furthermore, the complimentary breakfast was a notable disappointment. It was poorly cooked, lacked flavor, and offered very limited options. Based on this experience, I would not recommend the breakfast service to future guests. These aspects combined highlight areas where improvements in guest communication, flexibility, and service quality could significantly enhance the experience for visitors.
